Sand and Sea: Day 14

I was inspired to make this card from the Sand and Sea suite after I went to bed. I often get my best ideas while I sleep!!!! The base is Sahara Sand. I used a piece of the DSP on which I randomly embossed some shells in gold from the stamp set. I used Versamark […]

Sand and Sea: Day 13

I have had this suite, Sand and Sea, for a little while, as I bought it on preorder, but never got around to using it. I just love the colour palate and when I started using it yesterday, I just wanted to create more cards. My first attempt was using the Seaside Shells Dies, 3D […]

Darling Donkeys: Day 12

This stamp set Darling Donkeys is in the Sale-a-bration brochure. If you order $90 from the catalogues, you can receive this free. I combined it with the Oh so Ombre DSP which is also free in the Sale-a-bration brochure to create this cute card. The card base is in Basic White and I have used […]

Very Versailles and Peaceful Poppies: Day 11

Very Versailles and Painted Poppies have been two of my favourite stamp sets in the Annual Catalogue. I combined them to create this card. The base of the card is Old Olive and I added a piece of Very Vanilla. This was stamped with the script from Very Versailles (stamped off) I cut out ovals […]

Pretty Parasol: Day 10

I actually made this card for a challenge at Stamp Camp two months ago. It uses the Pretty Parasol Stamp Set. The challenge was to use Balmy Blue, Highland Heather, Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate. I found the colours quite a challenge. In the end I used Smoky Slate for the Base. My top layer […]

Dandelion Wishes: Day 9

I began this card a little while ago and have wanted to finish it for a while. I was inspired by a card that another demonstrator, Marelle Taylor had done using the Dandelion Wishes stamp set. The dandelion was stamped on Whisper White with Bumblebee ink. I then used a Fine tip Glue pen to […]

Enjoy the Moment: Day 8

I was given this stamp set at OnStage last November and have been slow to getting around to using it. I decided to use it in conjunction with the Postage Punch for today’s card. The base of the card is Garden Green and I cut a small strip from the front. I then cut some […]

Posted for you: Day 7

When I looked through the Annual Catalogue I almost missed this bundle the first time. Since I bought it, I have used it quite a lot. I made some beautiful cards for a shoebox challenge at a Stamp Camp I attended. The bundle is called Posted for You and includes a stamp set and punch […]

Hydrangea Hill: Day 6

This suite, Hydrangea Hill, is one of my favourites in the new January – June mini catalogue. I haven’t used a lot of purples until I worked with this suite. We have a beautiful purple hydrangea in our backyard and I love its colour. At times it has touches of blue going through the petals. […]

Dragonfly Garden: Day 5

These are my last two cards from the Dandy Garden Suite. These use the DSP and the laser cuts on the front of the card. The first card uses Mossy Meadow as the base and Bumblebee card stock as the first layer. I stamped some dragonflies from the stamp set in Versamark on this. and […]
