Flowering Desert

I got together with a couple of friends on Wednesday to do some stamping and we had fun with the Flowering Desert Stamp Set from the Spring/Summer Catalogue. I was inspired by a post on Pinterest but I can no longer find the photo so my thanks to whoever did the original card.
I used a Brayer for the background with Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody and then Poppy Parade at the top. The ground was brayered using torn paper and Mossy Meadow.

One of my friends had the clever idea of using two of the stamps in the set for the hat. I had to use the “Be your own kind of beautiful” sentiment on this card.

Happy Tails Bundle

I had to get the Happy Tails Bundle as the dog is very similar to my daughter’s dog Max who is adorable as you can see!

You can make such quick and easy cards with this stamp set and matching punch. The first dog has patches like Max. All the stamps used are in the set.

The second card uses a mirror image technique with the Stamparatus and a silicone mat. Francine Martin does an excellent You Tube Video. I used the fabulous Corrugated Embossing Folder for the Card Base.

In the last card my dog has a collar.I used the Stripes Embossing folder for the Real Red Card Base. I love the colour combo of Real Red, Black and White.

Forever Flowers and Meant To Be Bundles

I love the Forever Flowers and Meant to Be Bundles in the Spring/Summer Catalogue. I am doing a Class at my house this Saturday morning starting at 10.00am and next Monday evening at 7.30pm.
The first card uses one of the Forever Flowers Dies, some of the Designer Series Paper and the Stamp Set. Crumb Cake and Lovely Lipstick are the colours with a hint of Soft Sea Foam.

In the next card I have used the Corrugated Embossing Folder, the Rectangle Stitched Dies and the Meant To Be Bundle. This card was card from a You Tube Video by Kay Kalthoff. I added Grapefruit Grove Glimmer Paper which is one of the free Saleabration items with a £45 order.

The third card was also made using the Meant To Be Bundle with some of the matching Designer Series Paper.

The last card was cased from Jenny Moors. I changed the label for the sentiment to use a Die from the Climbing Roses Bundle.
