Festive Banner

Today I have a festive banner to share with that I made with one of the tutorials available at We Stamp For Lara, there is still time to sign up & receive a month of tutorials whilst helping the beautiful little girl Lara.

For my banner I chose the non traditional colours of Rich Razzleberry & Melon Mambo & I love how it turned out. I may now have make some more decorations in these colours to add to the Christmas tree in the Studio.

Another Xmas card

Hi ,
Just back with my second card I made for the Just Add Ink Challenge. Again this was very hard to photograph & looks way better in real life. With this card I actually brayed the embossing folder with Crumb Cake ink, before putting it through the Bigshot.

I am in a bit of a rush for dinner so if you would like more details feel free to Email me.

Just Add Ink #43

Hi,
Today I here to share a card I made for the Just Add Ink challenge which was Just Add Christmas.
My card is a very simple card using the Bauble from the Contempo Christmas Stamp set

For this card I have applied the Shimmer Paint to the embossed background with a Dauber, I have also applied the shimmer paint to the bauble as well as some bling. I then finished the card with a gorgeous bow & antique brad. The card looks much better in real life, I can't seem to pick up the shimmer background in any of the photos I took.

Will be back later tonight with another Christmas card similar to Thursdays card .

Have you got your sunglasses on

Hi ,
Today I want to share a card I have made for my classes tonight. It's a part case of a card I saved a picture of from Splitcoatstampers, the picture doesn't have a watermark & I not exactually sure where I found it, please let me know if you know of the original creator.

I have made the card in a much brighter yellow Daffodil Delight than the original. I have also used different ribbon, punched flowers, embossing folders & sentiment & Guess What I love it!!!!!!!!. It reminds me of my mum for some reason so I think I will be saving it for her birthday.
I know it won't be everyones cup of tea , but that doesn't matter.
Let me know what you think.

Stampin Royalty #44 second entry

Hi I am back with another card I made for the Stampin Royalty Challenge, this was the first card I made, but I am just not 100% happy with & I don't know why. So I thought the least I could do is show everyone & let you all be the judge

I have used the brayer to ink up Vintage wallpaper embossing folder with So Safron ink & have added a hand made rose, the edges have been daubed with the new shimmer ink to finish them off.

Stampin Royalty Challenge #44

I can't believe it has taken me 4 days to create a card for the Stampin Royalty challenge.Last week was my first ever entry into their challenge & I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of the top 3 Goddess picks. this weeks challenge was a colour challenge & these colours had me totally stumped, for some reason I just couldn't get the balance of colours to something I was happy with.
In the end I settled on a birthday card using the Party This Way Stamp set.

Thanks for looking

Clean & Simple

Yes I am back!!!!!!  I am finding the challenges a great way to get some creative flair happening, although today's card is a very easy card I made for the Clean & Simple challenge.

 The Challenge was to make a one layer card sounds simple doesn't . Well the card was but trying to photograph it took twice as long.The detail on the butterflies & the glittery background of the black made it very hard to photograph & the colours look really washed out. So here it is

The card was made using the Beautiful Wings Embossilit from Stampin Up & scraps of the brights colour family.
