Hi everyone!
For today’s card, I used the gorgeous Memory Box wildflower landscape die which I coloured with distress inks and Nuvo markers. I added a sentiment from Lawn Fawn and to finish off the card, I applied lots of stickles…. maybe too much, but then again can you ever have too much glitter?

Hello again!
Apologies for the two posts in one day, but I was so inspired by this week’s colour palette over at the Colour Throwdown challenge that I HAD to make another card. And I really wanted to use my ‘new’ cherry blossom embossing folder. Well new-ish! I actually got it when I was in Washington DC for Cherry Blossom season last March!
Anyway, for my card, I created a background using Tattered Rose distress oxide ink which I then embossed it with the sakura folder. I added Memory Box die cuts and a sentiment from My Sentiments Exactly to finish off the card.

Hello everyone!
I’ve been playing with the Simon Says Stamp Brushed Branches background stamp today. For these cards, I embossed the image and then blended some distress oxide inks over them. I just LOVE those inks. They blend so nicely.
As Valentine’s is less than a week away, I decided to turn my backgrounds into CAS Valentine cards using a die from Memory Box and a couple of sentiments from Simon Says Stamp.
Which is your favourite??

Happy Saturday everyone!
My new distress oxide inks arrived this morning and I have spent the day happily playing with them.
Here’s the first card I made using a die by Memory Box, a stencil by Studio Light and a sentiment from Winnie & Walter.

Hi everyone!
There’s such a cute sketch over at the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week. My card was really quick to make – in fact it took me much longer to find a heart die that was broadly similar in shape to the Simply Graphic leafy heart die that I wanted to use.
I ended up using a Memory Box heart die to cut some red cardstock and then adhered the leafy heart cut from gold glitter paper. The sentiment is by My Favorite Things.

Hi there!
The theme for this fortnight’s Less is More challenge is ‘purples’ – my favourite colour! How could I not participate?!
I used lots of different supplies/brands for my card. I started with a warm dark purple base which I embossed with a Next Level folder from We R Memory Keepers. I added some stardust Stickles for a bit of sparkle.
The butterfly is part of the new Memory Box release and the word die is by Mama Elephant.
I’m also entering this into the current Casology challenge (glimmer).
