Tiny Tags, Rich Razzlebury, Melon Mambo & Soft Suede

I made this card for one of my customers to show off the three new coloured cardstocks. Starting from the top, Soft Suede with the scalloped edge, Melon Mambo in the middle and Rich Razzleberry with the eyelet border punch. It also sports the new Rich Razzlebury polka dot ribbon. I cut a slot on […]

Sampler of May Promotion cardstocks

I set myself a challenge to use the three new colours which have been introduced this May as a sampler for Stampin’ Up!’s forthcoming colour renovation due on 1 October 2010. I stamped a background in Soft Suede ink on Soft Suede card stock using the Filigree background stamp. A large circle was cut out […]

Wonderful Favourites

This “favourite” I stamped in versamark and white embossed made my sister-in-law smile as she is my one and only sister-in-law! Nice to know you’re loved! I dry embossed this flower, reversed it on the debossed side and brayered it to create this effect. Quick and simple to do and hopefully with enough of a […]

I {Heart} Hearts

I made this Get Well card for a lovely lady who is in hospital at the moment and is likely to be convalescing at home for some time. Here goes. I cut a strip of Bravo Burgundy card stock and stamped the Dot to Dot from the new mini in versamark as a background and […]

A card for my Son-in-Law

I made this card for my Son-in-law’s birthday. I inked the “Sanded” background stamp in Bravo Burgundy and stamped on Very Vanilla then matted on to Bravo Burgundy and adhered to base card in Always Artichoke. I did the same with the stamped silhouette image and to finish, I stamped birthday salutations inside the frame […]

Occasionally, True Friend

I forget what you call this type of card, maybe a “swing” card? Again, plain and simple, just the mechanism having been cut with the paper cutter in the centre and a trio of ties stamped in a variety of colour, matted on to Taken with Teal which in turn was matted on to the […]

Vintage Vogue, Very Vintage

I’ve been feeling under the weather and thought I’d draw on some of my archived stash of cards. I usually make a stack of cards when I’m in the “zone”, have a mammoth photo session and file it in my photo albums on the computer when the brain is sluggish and I can’t think up […]

Cheers to You, Wonderful Words

I made use of my scraps from a previous project, picked up the Mellow Moss in the diagonal striped paper and overlay with punched So Saffron square scallops on top. The images were stamped with Black Stazon and coloured with water colour crayons and adhered to the scalloped squares with dimensionals. I used a two […]
