Birthday

Die cuts only – delicate floral buds

 

Hi there!

It’s been a long time since I played along with a Just Add Ink challenge and now that work is calming down, I have more time for crafting and decided to play along this week.

The challenge theme is no stamping so I pulled out my new  Delicate Floral Buds die set by Birch Press Design and got busy with my Gemini Junior!

The sentiment is by Simply Graphic and the embossing folder is by Spellbinders.

Thanks for stopping by!

Record Birthday Card

Hello everyone!

Today I’m inadvertently playing along in the Freshly Made Sketches challenge !

I started off by making a card for my brother using the Sugar Pea Designs Greatest Hits stamp and die set – but it was only when I was arranging the die cut records and CDs on my card base that I realised that this week’s sketch would provide the perfect layout!

Thanks for stopping by!

Birthday circle

Hello Everyone!

Today I’m playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

When I saw the sketch, I decided it would be perfect for the die fleur double by Simply Graphic! So I chose a couple of pieces of card and got crafty! I stencilled some Nuvo Moonstone paste on my card base and added a Memory Box sentiment plus a few gems to complete my take.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blue and Tan Floating butterflies

Hi there!

Today is the day of butterflies I think! First up is a card that I made earlier in the week but I ran out of time to blog! Fortunately, I remembered it before the Color Hues challenge deadline!

I started by creating an inky panel using Prize Ribbon distress ink. I then cut it using Memory Box’s Floating Butterflies Background die. I adhered the Floating Butterflies outline die on top. Then I smooched some Brushed Corduroy distress ink onto my card base and stencilled some moonstone Nuvo glimmer paste on top. When it was dry, I adhered the butterflies and added some stickles to them. Finally I stamped a Mama Elephant sentiment to complete my card.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pastel birthday wishes

Hello Everyone!

Today I’m playing along with the ‘Can You Handle the Pressure‘ challenge where the twist is pastels.

I’ve been wanting to use my beautiful Cherry Blossom Darice folder again this spring but haven’t got around to it – until now! I created an inky panel using Tattered Rose Distress Oxide ink and embossed it. I added some stickles into the centre of the flowers.

I added a sprig from Spellbinders’ Be Bold Blooms die set and a Pretty Pink Posh sentiment to complete my card.

Thanks for stopping by!
