I’m really late with easter this year and haven’t gotten round to creating anything to do with easter till now. This is an adaptation from a video I saw, but I can’t remember who and I did it mostly from memory and through trial and error. I stamped a greeting on the inside which is […]

WOYW?W #98
Last week I had a naked Punch Art journal. Here it is all dressed. I used the Big Shot on the left of picture to cut out the Fun Flowers from Stampin’ Up! and ran it through the Square Lattice embossing folder. The words were cut from the Medium Sizzlets Timeless Junior Alphabet set which […]
Motorcycle
Well, Stampin’ Up! you couldn’t get more blokier than this! Not excluding lady bikers of course, but no man would mind receiving a card like this! A minimilist look, stamped in black Stazon ink on watercolour paper, coloured with Real Red, Basic Gray and outlined in Bashful Blue, then colour washed with an aqua painter […]
Tiananmen Square
This is so exciting! My son sent me these pictures this morning, hot off the press – I’m green with envy. He’s in Beijing at the moment with my grandson who at the ripe old age of 10, is on his first trip abroad. What an “exotic” location for a first timer! My grandson looks […]

The first stamp is in a lighter colour for the petals, and the second corresponding image stamp adds depth and is stamped in a darker colour. […]
Manhattan Flower Embossing folder
This is the embossing folder I should have used. I took the bold step of inking the folder on the “flat” side, placed my card stock face down and ran it through the Big Shot to create this effect. The Cherry Cobbler ink transferred to the card stock it came into contact with, but not […]
Oops – a faux pas!
I must have grabbed the wrong embossing folder – when I had another look at the mini, this one wasn’t in it! Ooops – I meant to use the Manhattan Rose, but as I’ve already made it, I might as well share! Silly me. No wonder some of the ladies looked puzzled! It all becomes […]
Clearly for You – round 2 Stamp Index card
I stamped all the images on a scrap piece of Whisper white, used the 1 1/4″ square punch to centre and punch out all the images, inked the edges in River Rock and adhered them on to a 5 3/4″ x 8″ card base folded in half. I die cut the medium size flower in […]
