I can’t believe I’ve had this Level 2 Hostess Set since last October and this is the first time I’ve actually used it! It’s been buried under so many other stamp sets that it just got overlooked time and again! Pink Passion is one of the colours that is retiring in October, so I’ve used […]

Trendy Trees, “Nellie’s” sister “Nina”
I’ve got elephants on my brain and knew that if I didn’t seize the moment and just get down to actually bringing the idea to life, I’d lie awake thinking of it all night and I’m a terrible insomniac and a light sleeper anyway. So “Nina” and her baby “Tessa” was born! Yes, I’ve given […]
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
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 […]
Happy Moments, Occasionally
My nephew’s partner’s little girl just had her third birthday and this stamp set which I received as a gift was just perfect for her. It was stamped in Black Stazon and I set to colouring with my SU markers. The basket looked bare and needed something so I used the cherry from On a […]
