Warm Wishes

Hello crafty friends! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas, as best it can be at least with all the restrictions and rules with the pandemic. I was very spoiled as always and got so much craft stuff to play with so I will be busy! I have a few more Christmas/festive makes to share so I will still share those with you then I have lots more spring themed projects to share. Here is a more traditional card that was featured in Making Cards Magazine with a modern colour palette...

I created the background using Wilted Violet & Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide Inks. I created a moon effect using Hero Arts Unicorn White Ink, gently blending into a circle shape. I die cut the stars from silver glitter paper and added some white dots around each star. To finish i added a stamped sentiment.

Bear on A Bike

Hi everyone. Let me start off by saying that I am sorry for the lack of blog posts over the past few weeks. I haven't been very well so I haven't even been able to create like I normally would. I have a huge pile of new stuff to use so I will try and get back on track now I am starting to feel a bit better. Due to all this I had forgotten to post my DT card for Waffle Flower so here it is...

For this card I used Waffle Flower Happy Day Stamp Set that you can find on their website here. I love this set so it was great to use it again. I coloured my images with Copics and cut it out. The sentiment is also from the same stamp set. I used my Mermaid Lagoon, Twisted Citron & Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide to create the backgrounds. I decided to use the Sky Scene Stencil to create some hedges rather than using grass. I also used the clouds from the Grass Scene Stencil to create a couple in the sky. I added some small crystals to finish.

When It Rains...

Hi everyone! It's a horrible wet weather day here today so I thought I would post this very apt card for today! I love rainbows...

For this card I used some of the great new products from Taylored Expressions. I used the Over The Rainbow Die complete with the Rainbow Cloud Duo Dies. I used the Over The Rainbow Sentiments to create the stamped sentiment. I also used the Over The Rainbow Stamps to create the patterned pieces inbetween the rainbow arches. I created the blended background using a little Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink and my MFT Scatterned Raindrops Stencil to add a little detail.  I finished by adding some sequins.

Supplies;
Taylored Expressions Stamps - Over The Rainbow, Over The Rainbow Sentiments
Taylored Expressions Dies - Over The Rainbow, Rainbow Cloud Duo
MFT Stencils - Staggered Raindrops
Distress Oxide Inks - Mermaid Lagoon
Coloured Card
Sequins

Thank you for all stopping by and I will be back soon with another card to share with you.

You're So Kind

Hello crafty friends! I have been busy creating in my happy place - my craft room. Today I am sharing a autumn/fall themed card, I just love creating Autumn cards as it is my favourite time of year so expect to see many more from me. There are so many amazing new stamps out, I couldn't wait to use these ones...

For this card I used the new SugarPea Designs Hey Fall Stamp Set, I coloured the images with Copics and cut them out. I used another SugarPea Stamp Set called Autumn Background which I stamped and clear embossed onto kraft card for the background. I used MFT Stitched Dome Die-namics Dies to create the dome shape. I blended some Wild Honey & Spiced Marmalade Distress Inks onto it. I also used Crushed Olive to create the grass panel and cut with a MFT Grassy Edge Die-namics Die. I added strip of mounted washi tape behind the panel. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and I added some raindrops to finish.

Supplies;
Sugar Pea Designs Stamps - Hey Fall, Autumn Background
MFT Die-namics Dies - Stitched Dome STAX
Distress Oxide Inks - Spiced Marmalade, Wild Honey
Wow Embossing Powder - Ultra Fine Clear

Rainy Day

How cute are these little hippo's? I love them! They are from the Clearly Besotted Rainy Day Play Stamp Set. I stamped and coloured them with Copics then cut them out. I created the background by blending a little Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink. I then used my MFT Mini Staggered Raindrops Stencil to add some little raindrops over the top. I added a piece of washi tape and a Simon Says Stamp pre printed sentiment. To finish I added some Clear Raindrop embellishments.

Bestie Birthday

Hello crafty friends! My youngest daughter asked me to create a birthday card for her best friends birthday. She said it had to say bestie and also have pandas. I searched my craft room high and low for some panda stamps but thankfully right at the end I found some super cute ones so here is what I came up with...

For this card I used Clearly Besotted Cheering For You Stamps. I coloured them with Copics and cut them out. The background was created using Mama Elephant Circular Grid Cover Die. I blended 12 different coloured squares using Distress Oxide Inks and placed each one behind the circles. I couldn't find the right sentiments that would fit so I just printed some out and trimmed them down. I mounted the panel onto stripes paper, black card and silver glitter card. I added some shimmer to the stars using a Wink of Stella Pen and also some Clear Gelly Roll Glaze over the top. To finish I added some Clear Raindrops randomly onto the card.

Supplies;
Clearly Besotted Stamps - Cheering For You
Mama Elephant Dies - Circular Grid
Distress Oxide Inks
Wink of Stella Pen
Gelly Roll Clear Glaze Pen
Clear Raindrops
Striped Paper
Glitter Card

Thank you ever so much for popping by and I will be back soon. Have a great weekend.
