This month’s challenge was a fancy fold card. I decided to do a triangular folding fancy fold. This is fairly simple to cut out and fold and I used the Hydrangea Hill DSP for the front of the card. The base is Seaside Spray card stock and the sentiment is stamped on Basic White cardstock […]
We had a colour challenge this month and when I looked at the beautiful colours – Pear Pizzazz, Poppy Parade and Crushed Curry, I was excited and thought it would be easy to come up with something I loved! …. Well that was earlier!!! The first card I tried used Butterfly Bouquet. I think the […]
This month we had a sketch as our starting point for our creating. When I saw the January – June Mini Catalogue, there were two sets I fell in love with immediately! One was Hydrangea Hill Suite and the other was Sand and Sea Suite. When they arrived at my place I immediately got Hydrangea […]
This week I watched a video from Linda Bedinger on how to get a water colour effect using blending pens and I thought I would try it the other evening at our team zoom meeting while we talked!! The colours are used on Vellum paper and I cut each sheet into four pieces and worked […]
This concludes a month of daily postings of my card creations. I came back to one of my favourite stamp sets – Very Versailles. I used the shadow technique for this card. I used the Rococo Rose Oh So Ombre DSP and stamped off the script on the background. The leaves were stamped in Rococo […]
On yesterday’s card I used my blending brushes. Today’s card uses the Oh So Ombre DSP that gives a similar effect.

I started off with no idea how I was going to make this card!! The general idea was to use my new blending brushes and the Back to Back Blooms stamp set. The first thing I did was stamp some blooms on a piece of Basic White cardstock. This stamp set is quite interesting! You […]
This card was something of an experiment. I had an idea in my head and over time, I will refine the idea a little more! I stamped a piece of Basic White around the edge with the Back to Blooms stamp set. I used severals colours – Magenta Madness, Granny Apple Green, Blackberry Bliss and […]
I again was drawn to this free paper, Berry Blessings, that is in the Sale-a-Bration catalogue. This is a Level 2 award. In other words you need to spend $180 to receive this free. I paired it up with the Quite Curvy Bundle to make these cards. The effect is just beautiful and gives an […]
I used Paper Blooms for this card as the first layer. This is again in the Sale-a-Bration catalogue and is free with a $90 order. For the first card I used Seaside Spray as the base and then cut a layer from Rococo Rose using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I then added a smaller […]
