Exquisite Florals

I have finally had a play with some of my Spectrum Noir Colorista Stash, it has been just sitting in a cupboard for ages.

I used the Spectrum Noir Colorista Exquisite Florals Pad, there is a lot of glitter on the image but I could not get it to show in the photographs.

The sentiment is from The DigiStamp Boutique Large Brush Script Sentiments set.

I really enjoyed colouring this image, the pens blend beautifully and I found it really relaxing.

Just to Say

This is my offering for this weeks Less is More Challenge - the theme is Take Flight.

I decided to go with butterflies and used some that I had left over from another card that I had created with my Sue Wilson Cascading Butterflies Die - I coloured them with my Spectrum Noir Illustrator Pens.  The leaves are from the Clearly Besotted Leafy Accents collection.

The gingham background is from Bearly Mine Designs and the sentiment is from Pink Petticoat, now trading as The Lovely Studio.

 I would like to enter these cards into this weeks Less is More Challenge - Take Flight.

Birthday Roses

This is the card that I created for me and hubby to give to my Mum's friend for her Birthday.

I used another kit from Craftsuprint and copied it into Word again so that I could resize everything.

It is a decoupage image, so lots of fussy cutting - I layered everything up with foam pads.  The sentiment and insert are also part of the kit.

Notes

This is another of the projects that I created for Cards & Crafts for Christmas. I used papers from the First Edition 12” X 12” Wild Flower Paper Pad and some green card stock.

The flowers are a Joy Crafts Flower Stamp, I fussy cut them and layered them up to create a little dimension.  I computer generated the 'Notes' and cut it out with my Spellbinders Labels Eighteen die.

PLUS there are 4 FREE GIFTS - a designer paper pack from Crafter's Companion, Polkadoodles & NitWit Collections, 5 digital stamps, 2 bendy card cutting files and a bonus template sheet!

Birthday Basket

I created this card for my Mum to give to a friend, she loves anything with flowers.

I used a kit from Craftsuprint, I copied it into Word so that I could resize everything.  There are several layers so lots of my favourite fussy cutting.

I layered everything up with foam pads and added a sentiment that was also part of the kit.

A fabulous Birthday

I have managed to have a play with the beautiful stamp from the latest Craftwork Cards Stamp Club, I thought she just cried out to be paper pieced so I teamed her up with papers from the Sweet and Petite Julie Loves Creativity Box.

The sentiment is from the Creativity Box as well, I added some Nuvo Drops to embellish - this is the first time that I have added them directly to the card, I was quite pleased with the outcome!

Christmas Gifts

Cards & Crafts for Christmas is in the shops today and I am delighted to have a feature included on making gifts for book/magazine/stationery lovers in it.

I created a little desk tidy/calendar using the gorgeous First Edition Wild Flower Paper Pad.

I created the little drawers with my Spellbinders Perfect Match Die, it really makes life so much easier - I added some little brads to open them with.

I created the flowers with my Joy Crafts Flower Stamp, I stamped and fussy cut a selection and layered them up for dimension.  I found the calendar pages on the internet.

Make sure you pick up a copy of the magazine it contains 134 festive projects for the perfect crafty Christmas, including cards, gifts, knitting, sewing and crochet!  PLUS there are 4 FREE GIFTS - a designer paper pack from Crafter's Companion, Polkadoodles & NitWit Collections, 5 digital stamps, 2 bendy card cutting files and a bonus template sheet!
