Celebrate Today

Hi everyone, I would like to share a card with you that I made using a sketch from Mojo Monday.  I did not get around to entering my card in the challenge but wanted to share with you anyway.


The stamp set is another newby from the new Occasions Catalogue called "Celebrate Today" and the great thing about this stamp set is that it has a matching Framelits Die set. I am a sucker for the stamp sets with the matching dies.  I have used a colour scheme of Lost Lagoon, Pool Party and Kraft.  Images and sentiment were stamped with Baked Brown Sugar.  I used some of the Gold Sequin Trim for a touch of bling.

Thank you in butterflies ...

Hi everyone, I would like to share with you my card that I have made for the colour challenge this week at Pals Paper Arts1-8-15


I must admit to sitting on the challenge for a few days, deciding on how to incorporate these colours into a card.  The sketch is one that I cased from Sandy Mathis. I liked the layout so much that I put in my box of ideas and thought it perfect for this colour challenge.


I have used the stamp sets 'Butterfly Basics' and a set from the Sale-A-Bration promotion called 'Lotus Blossum'.  The 'Butterfly Basics' set coordinates with the Butterflies Thinlits which I have used for my butterfly.  I stamped the image in each of the three colours and layered them together to form the butterfly.  A bit of faux stitching was added along with a few pearls to finish.

On my card I have used the stamps sets 'Flower Shop' and 'And Many More'.  The flowers were created with Heat & Stick Powder and Dazzling Diamonds, the image was then stamped over this with Momento Black Ink and coloured using the Wisteria Wonder Blendabilites before punching out using the Pansy Punch.  The centres of the flowers were made using the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack, Regals Candy Dots and the Candy Dots Brad Bases.  Ribbons is the Silver 5/8" Satin Ribbon and the Silver 1/8" Ribbon.  The leaves were made using the Flower Frenzy Bigz L die.

Celebrate!

Hi everyone, I would like to share with you my card I have made for this week's challenge at Retro Sketches.

You're My Anchor

Hi everyone, hope you had a great Christmas Day.  I certainly did with catching up with my family and friends.  A good laugh and catch up along with great food and company makes for a great day.


This is a card that I made for the Mojo Monday Challenge a couple of weeks ago but did not get around to posting it.  So I thought that I would still share it with you as it is a great sneak peak at some of the products in the new Occasions Catalogue due for release on 2 January, 2015.


I have used the stamp set "Guy Greetings" which is a really cool set with lots of images and sentiments for that special male person or people in our lives.  The DSP is from the "Adventure Bound" Designer Series Paper Stack which has some great new style papers in it.   Did you notice the new White Jute Ribbon, this is also in the new Occasions Catalogue.

Butterflies ...

Merry Christmas everyone.


The pressies are wrapped, food done and we are now waiting for Santa, he should be half way across Australia by now.  So to fill in a bit of time I made my card for the Mojo Monday Challenge this week.
For my card I have used some of the new products in the Occasions Catalogue due for release on 2 January, 2015.  The stamp set is "Butterfly Basics" with the matching "Butterflies" Thinlits. I have also used some of the Blushing Bride Rosette Trim in the Artisan Embellishment Kit along with some Sahara Sand 7/8" Lace Trim and DSP from the "Something Borrowed" paper pack.
