Cute Card Thursday - Citrus Colours


What a gorgeous day it is today so I guess it is definately Spring. For this weeks challenge I used my PB Bunnies stamp and watercoloured them in and cut them all out individually. The background paper is Anna Griffin the cardstock is coredinations from Craft at Home. Used a new cuttlebug embossing folder I think its been around for a bit but its new for me. Added chipboard letters, some ribbon and some layered flowers. This is an 8 x 8 card so its a lot bigger than my usual so it was hard to squeeze it in the photo lol!!

have a great day and thanks for visiting

Rubber Stamp Tapestry


For a couple of years I had been admiring the Rubber Tapestry Stamp Kits I have seen on sale. I finally got myself a set and had a bash at it. I was so pleased with the cards. Major hint/tip: if doing a heart or circle shape draw your shape with a pencil and it makes it so much easier to do your stamping. I am definately going to get another set of these. I saw some great card ideas on the Card-io website. In fact might just head over there now and have another look

Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Doodling


This weeks challenge was to use doodling somewhere on your card. I stamped my image on to a piece of card punched with a scallop circle punch. I doodled around the edges of that. The papers are DCWV floral and just kept it simple adding a few buttons, sequins and a sentiment.

Sketch Saturday no. 43


I loved this sketch and I havent done this challenge for awhile so I thought I would have a go. I thought I would try out some inchies stamps I got at the SECC and didnt know what to do with. I saw an article in a craft mag so i took that idea and combined it with sketch. The papers are DCWV floral and the card stock is coredinations. I used nestabilities for the frame and a scallop punch for the squares. The stamp is Penny Black and i coloured it in with h2o's and decoupaged a few of the little flowers (fiddly but worth it) The ribbon and adhesive stones are from my stash.
