Magical Birthday

Hello and welcome to another crafty week! Have you seen the latest launch from Lawn Fawn? I'm a very lucky gal as my hubby got me some of the new bits from this release...eeek! I couldn't wait to get stamping and creating and made this card almost right away...

For this card I used the new Lawn Fawn Unicorn Picnic Stamp Set. I stamped, coloured with Copic Pens and cut them out. I created the background by clear embossing the new Lawn Fawn Starry Sky Stencil. I added some Tumbled Glass & Faded Jeans Inks Distress Oxides over the top and blended them gently. I used my MFT Cloud Edge Dies to create the clouds at the bottom. I cut the birthday word from glitter card using Lawn Fawn Birthday Script Die. The rainbow and clouds were created using Lawn Fawn Stitched Rainbow Die Set. I added a coordinating stamped sentiment which is also from the same stamp set. I added a strip of stripe paper at the bottom and added some raindrop embellishments to finish.

Another hot day on the cards today and my craft room is like a sauna at the moment! I have been crafting especially in the cooler evenings to keep me occupied. Today I am sharing a quick clean and simple card..apologies for the photograph, white is always tricky to photograph...

For this card I used some of my fab new products from The Stamp Market. So happy these are now available in the UK at Dies To Die For. I used The Stamp Market Spring Tulip, I cut it from white card several times to cover the card front. I also used it for the main focal flower. The letters are from the Mini Skinny Upper Alpha Die Set which I cut from co-ordinating coloured card. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp and I added some pearls to finish.

Sending A Smile

Hi all,

Today I am sharing a colourful card that I made this week. I have been trying out some new styles of cards to broaden my skills and here is one of them using my favourite colour palette of the moment...

For this card I created the background using Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks and blended them together. Next I went over the top with a stencil using the same colours adding more pressure to get a darker colour. I then used my Altenew Simple Beauty Stamped Set and stamped each of the sketched flower in the two corners. I used my MFT Die-namics Die for the Smile word. I cut this out several times and layered it together.. I added a heat embossed sentiment using the MFT Stamps Smile Maker Stamp Set. I added a couple of strips of striped paper to balance out the black and white. I finished by adding some gems and jewels. I had so much fun making these backgrounds so watch this space for more! Ps - sorry this picture is a bit blurry my camera doesn't want to play ball at the moment.

Supplies;

Altenew Stamps - Simple Beauty

MFT Stamps - Smile Maker

Woof Birthday

Hello all. I am back today with a creation featuring the latest release from MFT Stamps! I only got these a few days ago but I couldn't wait to ink them up and make a card with them...

For this card I used My Favorite Things Woof Pack Stamp Set. I coloured all the images with Copic Pens and cut them out. I created a sort of wall papered room using some patterned paper from my stash along with some coloured card. I used a Lawn Fawn Stitched Frame Die and I embossed my background using Lawn Fawn Quilted Patchwork Die. I added a stamped sentiment and decorated the panel with some gems.

Today I am sharing a cute card that I made recently using some adorable Hedgehogs from Pretty Pink Posh. This is actually quite bright in real life but for some reason it doesn't really show up in the photo...

For this card I used the Hedgehog Friends Stamp Set from Pretty Pink Posh. As always I coloured them with Copic Pens and cut them out. I used Avery Elle Hugs Die and heat embossed a sentiment. The dome shape is MFT Die-namics Stitched Dome Stax and I used my MFT Cloud Stencil with some Distress Ink to create the background. I also blended some green ink onto a die cut grass border using MFT Dienamics Grassy Edge Dies. The background paper and paper strips are left over scraps from my stash. I finished by adding some Black Nuvo Drops.

Friend Like No Other

Hi all,

I'm back, two days in a row check me out! I have been creating behind the scenes to keep me busy so I have a few extra cards to share with you. Today I am sharing a clean and simple floral card using the spotlight stamping technique...

It's been a while since I have done any spotlight stamping and as I got some new Altenew Stamps recently, I thought they would be perfect for that. For this card I used Altenew Simple Beauty Stamp Set. It's such a fab set and I really must add some more Altenew Stamps to my collection. I stamped all over the background with the outline stamp. I stamped my main flower in the corner and used the layering stamps in the set to create the pink flower. I added a sentiment sticker from a Jen Hadfield sticker sheet. I added some striped paper and a strip of black card to the side. I finished by added some pearls.

Supplies;

Altenew Stamps - Simple Beauty

Altenew Inks - Spring Bouquet Set

Jen Hadfield Sticker Sheet

I will be back soon with more creations. Stay safe and well everyone!

Birthday Bear Friends

It's a dark and gloomy day here today, it's strange having the lights on in my craft room after having gorgeous sunshine for so long! Today I am sharing a card that I made for my husband's birthday which was on Tuesday. I had so much the few days before so I had to make it a quick one!

I used Avery Elle Beary Good Friends Stamp set for the images. I coloured them with copics and cut them out. I recently got some Liquid Watercolours by Pinkfresh Studio to try out and I created a quick wash background on this card using them. I need to play a bit more with them but so far I love them, they create a lovely smooth brush stroke effect. I used a MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle to die cut the background panel. I added a pre printed sentiment sticker and added a enamel dot. To finish I added some clear raindrops.

Supplies;

Avery Elle Stamps - Beary Good Friends

Pinkfresh Studio Liquid Watercolours

MFT Die-namics Dies - Wonky Stitched Rectangles

Copic Markers

Sentiment Sticker

I will be back with more creations very soon.

Awesome

Hi all,

I had so much fun creating my slimline cactus card a few weeks back that I thought I would make another similar one. I went for a normal card size this time but used similar products and the same colourway...

For this card I used MFT Stamps Let's Stick Together. I stamped the images, coloured them with Copics and cut them out. I used the MFT Die-namics Triple Peek A Boo Die to create the three windows. I added some blended blue card behind each window. I used MFT Tiny Triangles Stencil and used some Distress Ink in Tea Dye over the top of the kraft card. I die cut the awesome word from card using Pinkfresh Studio You Die Set. I added a stamped sentiment and some White Nuvo Drops to finish.

Relaxing Day

Today I have something bright and cheerful to share with you. I made this for my friend, she had her birthday last week. She loves sunbathing so i automatically reached for this stamp set as I thought it would be perfect!

This stamp set is from Lawn Fawn and called On The Beach. I coloured the images with Copic Markers and cut them out. I gently blended some Tumbled Glass and Tea Dye Distress Oxides to create the backing panel then die cut it with a Stiched Rectangle Die from MFT Die-namics Dies. I used a MFT Die for the sun called Sunny Skies and blended some Distress Oxides (Mustard Seed and Dried Marigold) over it. I added some die cut clouds from Lawn Fawn to the background. I added some matching sentiments from the same stamp set. I then finished by adding some clear raindrop embellishments.
