#Simplestamping with free stamps





Stampin' Up! challenge us monthly to make a card
#simplestamping
Something easy and quick that a new crafter could tackle.
Why is it I struggle with these lol.

This month we had to use
  • Theme: Any occasion.
  • Supplies: Stamps, ink, paper and featuring your favourite Sale-A-Bration stamp set.
My favourite is definitely the meerkats
and this is what I made.

It's a simple cut off front panel revealing the meerkat on inside
There is also a sentiment.
Because I coloured directly onto the card I covered up the
back with a strip of matching dsp.

Clubhouse Bundle Birthday Card


This is the birthday card I made to match my golf ball gift box
from my Wednesday tutorial.


One birthday down, lots to go lol.

I really love the dies that come with this bundle.
Perfect for embellishments.
How cute are the little golf clubs which can be stamped and die cut
or simply die cut on card!

The golfer stamp is perfect for all the men in my life!
Easy to add their colour style and hair colour!

I have a video showing how I made the card over on my VIP group.

Have a great weekend and thanks for all your lovely comments!

Tag Tuesday - Celebrations!


Time for my second tag over at
where the theme is
CELEBRATIONS

This time I went with a birthday theme.
I cut my tag using blueberry bushel card stock.
I matted on some gingham from the brights dsp.
Then using Broadway Birthdays stamp set,
I stamped out 5 candles and flames, die cut them and changed
the heights before adhering to my tag.
I die cut the WISH, added some gold metallic pen to highlight the dots.
I stamped the sentiment and a balloon (stamping twice so I could layer up)
 then added the wish letters.
The tag was finished with a very vanilla ribbon
which I coloured with blends to match the flames and balloon.
Tag making is so addictive!!
