Still using Elegant Soiree DSP – the colours from the DSP dictated the colour palette for this card in Soft Suede for the card base and mats in Bashful Blue. I stamped on Whisper White using the coordinating stamp set, Always Elegant which is available both in Wood and Clear mount and can be found […]

Seeing Stars #1, Afterthoughts
I have finally broken out this set which has been sitting in my cupboard, unmounted and uninked for I don’t know how long. This a wood mounted stamp set with an assortment of 8 stars, different sizes, called Seeing Stars on page 68 of the Main Idea Book & Catalogue. What better way to showcase […]
Nature Walk #4, Engraved Greetings
I’ve used the coordinating DSP for the Nature Walk stamp set called Botanical Gazette with a duo-tone colour palette in So Saffron and Basic Black. I stamped the birthday greeting from Engraved Greetings, a set of two stamps, wood mounted on page 86 of the Main Idea Book and catalogue. Two ribbon loops in Basic Black […]
Nature Walk #3
This card could be used for “Him” or “Her”.

Crystal Effects applied along the “ground” and Champagne glass glitter sprinkled over it. I made […]
Quarterly Meeting Notepads

The colour combo here is Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze and So Saffron. I love it – really vibrant and striking and very summery. It certainly makes the different layers of […]
Summer Splash, Basic Phrases, Fish Frenzy
Two of my Inkin’ Divas accompanied me to Amanda’s Quarterly Meeting at Locks Heath yesterday and we had a blast. These were the swaps I made using the Summer Splash set in the mini. Do you ever get “inspiration block”? Some stamp sets you look at and a ton of ideas on what kind […]
Nature Walk #2, Thank you Kindly
This is probably my favourite. I only partially inserted the card base into the embossing folder sandwiched between the two acrylic plates and ran through the Big Shot. I struggle with these egg images how best to feature it on a card. Again on the minimalist vein, this does the trick. The sentiment is from […]
Nature Walk #1, Oval All
This is another set of samples I made in a masculine vein and still featuring the Elegant Soiree DSP as my Hostess had requested it but using a different stamp set – Nature Walk. These masculine cards are really quick and easy to make as they are clean and simple, no bows, torn edges rather […]
