I love .....




Our new challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

 is all about WHAT YOU LOVE!

Just grab your stamps and show us what floats your boat!

We have 3 great prizes up for grabs too!

So WHAT I LOVE is a shaped card!

I love creating shaped cards for special occasions.

This one was made for my daughter and her partner

moving into their first home.

I have used a Christina Griffiths die set called

6" x 6" flower box and card set.

The card colours are flirty flamingo and coastal cabana.

I stamped the little houses directly onto the card, then

stamped more onto white card and added colour.

I cut them out and 3d'd them.

The trees and flowers were stamped, coloured and added to the layers.

The sentiment is from two different stamp sets.

I added matching ribbon and bow.

The back has been stamped as well using a few different sets

which I will list below.

The front has also had some clouds inked up.

Stamp sets used:

Quite Curvy, Barn Door, One Happy Family,

Coming Home, Beauty of Friendship and At Home with You.


I hope you get time to join us!


Thanks to those of you who asked how I was.

Getting over covid took longer than I had patience for lol.

But we are all doing very well now, energy levels back

and only a small amount of congestion.

We have been busy moving my daughter into her home

and getting ready for her partner and family arriving from

USA today. We have the wedding on Thursday and the visitors

return on Sunday so hopefully things will get a bit more normal around here.

  5. What a busy time you are having Pinky, Covid certainly wasn't good timing was it. I am praying to keep clear until Tuesday as I've been given an appointment for a Spring vaccine, wasn't expecting that as (thankfully) I'm not in that age group.

    I hope you have a lovely day on Thursday and the weather is kind and that you will share some photos.

  8. What a beautiful card you created, I am always amazed by shaped cards as I don't have the patients to make them but they are stunning!

    Happy to hear you're doing much better now. The first time I had Covid (in Sept. 2020) it surely took some time to get over it even had symptoms I only realized were Covid related at a later time. The second time I had it (just this January) was much easier on me with just mild symptoms but still a bit exhausted, luckily much easier on me than the first time around.

  12. What a great fun fold card, Pinky! I love it! The little houses are the perfect detail. What I love most is how you incorporated so many stamp sets since that is something that I love to do as well. So glad you are getting back to feeling well! Covid is not a joke! Thank you for playing in my Creative Creases Challenge and hope you can join in again soon.
