Birthday list

Hello Stashers.  I have a new favourite stamp set and I wanted to share a a card that I made with it with you all.

Birthday wit - 145753

I some times struggle as I don't have a lot of sentiment stamps (or I didn't until recently).  With this stamp set I don't need to look for a focal point AND a sentiment, because this stamp set is big enough to have that all in one.  The sentiment IS the focal point.

I have made two slight variations on the same card.  If you would like to see how it was made, check out this video.

It's a fun card to make and perfect for bulk making cards.  The witty sentiment is perfect for any fussy eaters that you might know 😀

I have used bright colours, but if you use a different colour way to make this card.  I would love to see what you used.

Thanks for stopping by.  I have an idea for a 3D project, so I am off to see if I have every thing I need to make it.

Catch up with you all soon.

Playing with paisley

Hello Crafters.

Today I had some play time and I decided to have my first play with the Paisleys and Posies stamp set and the Paisley framlits dies.

I decided to work with Cherry cobbler, Crushed curry and Elegant eggplant which are all colours in the regal collection.  The colours are so rich and work so well together.

I started by creating a card blank using the crushed curry.  I then took a piece of cherry cobbler and die cut three of the leafy fan shape design, making sure to keep the bits that I cut out.

I then created my background using  various stamps from the  Paisleys and Posies stamp set using a cherry cobbler Stampin' write marker to ink my stamps.  They are very juicy, so embossing using these pens should be a dream.  I'm looking forward to trying that out.

I then adhered my cherry cobbler background onto my card blank.

I stamped Blessed on to an off cut of crushed curry using an elegant eggplant Stampin' write marker to ink my stamp.  I had to mask off part of the stamp to do this.  I matted the crushed curry sentiment onto a piece of cherry cobbler and then double matted on to a piece of elegant eggplant and adhered the sentiment to my card using foam adhesive strips.

I die cut three of the leafy fan shape designs from a piece of elegant eggplant, again keeping all of the bits that were cut out and glued them into place in the apertures I had created in the cherry cobbler background.  I finished off by adding some of the cherry cobbler cut outs and some rhinestones that match the card.

I hope you like it

Thanks for stopping by.
