Spring Tulips!

Happy Monday.

Today I am sharing my midway post for our challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

where the theme is Spring!

We have some great prizes too so great incentive to join us!!

For my card I went with a daffodil delight base.

I matted it with a piece of white card which I ran through

with an embossing folder.

The tulips where stamped using daffodil delight and granny apple green inks

and the tulip heads where raised up.

The sentiment was stamped and fussy cut.

I hope you can come and join us!

Midway Summer Flowers

For my midway post at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

where the theme is summer flowers

I have gone with a Lisa Horton set again.

Remember we have a great prize sponsored by

Crafty Individuals

so be sure and get your entry in.

Any project at all so long as you have a stamped item

as the focal point.

For my card I decided to do a quick video to show

the process I have gone through.

Sorry for the voice, I was knee deep in a very bad cold.

It is super hot here today, hard to stick

but seriously not as hot as in England.

I hope you are all keeping cool and safe!

 

Camellia get well soon

I finally got time to play with my Lisa Horton

Camellia Cluster set.

You get the stencils, dies and embossing folder

and they are just a joy to play with and experiment with.

I kept to the pink colour for this one to start me off

but will be a bit more daring the next time lol.

I added some line embossing using my score board

instead of leaving the card flat.

The flower has been chopped so I could make it fit my card

fully and I added a stamped sentiment and some pearls

to the centre border.

I wanted to have a play with my stencils, stamps and dies

from Lisa Horton so went in search of a sketch

to motivate me.

I came across this one at

Try Stampin' on Tuesday

which worked perfectly for my big  yellow flower.

I have used yellows and greys for the flower,

shades of green for the leaves

and stamped the tag in grey ink and the

main sentiment in black, inked up with my blending brushes.

The stitching around the edges if from a set called

Stitchery from SU.

I finished with a yellow bow.

Happy Monday!

This is my final card for

Kendra's Card Challenge 2

and I have followed sketch number 15.

The image is from the

Back on your Feet stamp set

and he has been coloured in shades of green and yellow blends.

I added a little knot of ribbon and a few

mini card candi to the strips of paper.

Sketch 5 Healing Hugs

Happy Monday!

I am here with Sketch 5 from Kendra's Card Challenge.

Using the butterfly bijou papers for my layout

I have added a stamped panel using Healing Hugs

stamp set and Just Jade ink.

The ribbon is also Just Jade.

I have finished with  punched circles and sentiment

and a die cut butterfly from Brilliant Wings dies.

So we headed off to the beach this morning

as our travel restrictions were lifted.

This was our first time down to Omeath in

over a year and we sorely missed it.

A brisk walk along the sea front for an hour

and home again!

So refreshing and uplifting!!

Basket of Blooms

Happy Monday!

My card today is a get well card for my basket.

Between get well and sympathy cards this past month,

I am completely cleaned out!

For this card I made a quick and easy fold to add interest

and used my new stamp set

Basket of Blooms along with Butterfly Gala.

The card I used is mint macaron and matching papers from the subtles set.

Healing Hugs get well card

Happy Monday!

My card today is a get well soon one using the lovely

Healing Hugs stamp set and the gorgeous Bumble Bee ink and ribbon.

As I was stamping directly onto the base card I used the heavy

whisper white card so it wouldn't show through.

The top line under the ribbon has been inked using my 

homemade striped template!

Split Card Technique using Healing Hugs

Happy Monday!

I have two cards to share today where I used the split card technique

from the lovely Jennifer McGuire on YouTube.

I have used Healing Hugs as it has that lovely big flower.

One card has long leaves the other has the smaller leaves

and I kept one plain and finished the other with black.

I do have a video showing how I used this flower over in

my VIP Group but you can watch Jennifer's version on YouTube.
