Fabulous Flamingo


So today I have a couple of Fabulous Flamingo cards one in daytime and one at night
In the first card I inked all the background in blue and then added all the other stamping adding a layer of just the Flamingo body which I had stamped and cut out

In the second card I created a scenery at night with moonlight on the water and added two Flamingo bodies which I had stamped and cut out to layer on top

Pocketful of Sunshine, Delightful Daisy


I watched a you Tube video today by Keren Howell of Tuppence Coloured in which she made this springer card I thought it looked like fun so I gave it a go
In my first card I used the Delightful Daisy DSP and the stamps and punch along with a label punched from the pretty Label and a sentiment from Fabulous Flamingo
In the second card I went for Naturally Eclectic Dsp and the sunglasses and sentiment  from pocketful of Sunshine

Lemon Zest, Hexagons Embossing, Dragonfly Dreams Bee


Two cards today using primarily the Lemon Zest Bundle  the stamps have a co-ordinating punch which cuts out the lemon and the leaves
in my first card I have kept it pretty simple using just the stamps and Layering up the card panel on a thin sliver of green card
In my second card I have kicked it up by using the Hexagons Embossing folder in the background and inking it with yellows and greens I have added a bee from Dragonfly Dreams and the sentiments have been stamped on a couple of square stitched shapes cut with the medium die

Fabulous Flamingo

I used Fabulous Flamingo stamps to create this card which has three step stamping for the Flamingo which is fun as you can add layers of colour
I stamped the Flamingo first in the three steps and then built up the scenery around him
I matted the panel onto some pink cardstock and then added a strip of Delightful Daisy DSP the sentiment is from the same set

Colourful Seasons





Just a few of my latest cards using Colourful Seasons , Work of Art, Seaside and Woodland embossing folders and the Seasonal Layers thinlets
The last card I made for my husband for our Wedding Anniversary and as it was packed flat in the envelope I had to show him how to put it together (note to self) enclose a diagram of how to put the card together when sending this type of card.

Beautiful Bouquet, Bouquet Bunch Framelets

This card was made using the Beautiful Bouquet stampset and the co-ordinating framelets Bouquet Bunch
if the stampset I am using is polymer I find it easier to cut out my framelets first and Stamp on them afterwards it saves a lot of time positioning the dies over the stamped images
I know you are supposed to do it the other way around and you have to if the stamps are rubber as you can't see where you are positioning the stamping, but it works for me!

Ruffled embossing folder, Sunshine Sayings & Wishes

Today's card uses the Ruffled dynamic embossing folder inked up in Powder Pink
I die cut two hearts from the Sunshine Wishes dies and added the large circle from stitched shapes and a smaller one which I punched out, the sentiment comes from Sunshine Sayings
 I made this for one of my Aunts and Uncles who live in wales unfortunately too far away from me to wish them a Happy Anniversary in person so instead I put all my love into this card for them x
