Bella Toile, Hello Again

I liked the colour combo with Blush Blossom and Rich Razzleberry which I did on a previous post on Wednesday, June 30th, I duplicated it in these cards to my team of “Inkin’ Divas” – I used the Blush Blossom for my base and used the Bella Toile background stamp as a feature and just […]

Bird on a Branch, Bella Toile, Diamond Gatefold

Thank you ladies for your lovely comments. Elin and Elizabeth – I have made a smaller version of this so it will fit in a C6 envelope. Click on “Tutorials” on the nav bar at the top of my blog and mosey on by to “Stamp with Elaine”, you’ll find I’ve taken note of your […]

Bird on a Branch

I’ve just started a new “Stamp With Elaine” monthly craft club and having tried my hand at a recessed card on the Inspiring Inkin’ Challenge Blog last Saturday, I decided this would be a good one for launching our very first project at our first meeting. Here we’ve used the same emboss resist technique but […]
