Oriental Delights

This is the third and final card that I have created with my Hunkydory Eastern Wishes collection.  I have been using the Oriental Delights Topper Set.

I have used the smaller topper again, there are two of each topper set - it is a square topper, I cut it out with a circle die and layered it up with some of the A4 patterned cardstock and some matching cardstock.  I also used two of the papers from the Luxury Inserts and Papers collection and one of the A4 cardstock sheets.  I used my Tattered Lace Fleurs dies to cut the flowers and an unlabeled die to cut the foliage, the sentiment is from Lisa Horton Crafts.

SSS Card Kit - September 2012

Yes, my blog title is correct, I used a Simon Says Stamp card kit from September 2012 to create this card.  I have quite a few card kits from 2012 and 2013 and I am determined to use them - to be honest, I need the space in my craft room.

I used the patterned papers and a sheet of cardstock from the card kit, I cut the banners with my Die-namics Fishtail Flag dies and used my Tim Holtz rosette die to create the rosette, I just made it a little smaller.  I added a sentiment from Lisa Horton along with a button and some twine.

Miss You Lots

I am trying to use up some of my older stash at the moment and decided to use a topper from an old Studio Light Collection.

I used a topper and some elements from a Janneke Brinkman Die Cut Block, I didn't make the card as they suggest, instead I decided to create a slimline card.  The papers are from the 6 x 6 " paper pad that goes with the collection, I also added some corrugated cardstock and a sentiment from Lisa Horton Crafts.

On my Mind

I created this card with the latest Sara Davies Signature Collection - Vintage Diary, I think she is launching another collection next week, they seem to be launching so many new products at the moment it is difficult to keep up!

I decided to create another slimline card using the teacup image from one of the papers, I die cut it from one sheet and fussy cut it from another so that I could layer it up for dimension.  I used two more of the beautiful vintage papers along with some corrugated card and inked the edges of everything to enhance the vintage feel.  The flowers were cut from the reverse of one of the papers, the reverse sides are all plain colours, I added another sentiment from my Lisa Horton Crafts Wordage Sheets.

Birthday Butterfly

This is the final card that I have created with my Stamperia Spring Botanic collection, I have lots left though, plenty to make some more in the future.

I used four of the papers along with some pink card stock and inked the edges of everything again.  I used one of the beautiful toppers, there are so many of them, it was difficult to choose which one to use, the sentiment is another one from my Lisa Horton Crafts Wordage Sheets and I used my Tattered Lace Fleurs Dies to cut the flowers.

Paper Hugs

Another Slimline design today, I really love creating these at the moment - it makes a nice change from my normal square cards.

I have used my Stamperia Spring Botanic collection again, I used two of the papers, a topper and some corrugated card stock.  Lots of torn edges and inked edges along with some die cut flowers and a Lisa Horton sentiment again.

Daydreamer

As soon as I saw the new Sara Davies Signature Collection called Vintage Diary, I just knew I had to get it, it's just my type of collection.  However, when it was delivered, I was at a bit of a loss to know what to do with it!  I think the problem is, there are no toppers, there are some stamps but as those of you that know me will know, I'm not much of a stamper!

Anyway, after I'd had a good look through the 12 x 12" paper pad I decided that I could cut some toppers from the papers. This girl reading is part of a paper, I just cut it out with a stitched rectangle die and inked the edges. I used four of the papers and cut the banners using my Die-namics Fishtail Flag dies, I cut the flowers from the reverse of one of the papers and added a sentiment from Lisa Horton Crafts Wordage Sheets.

Make Today Amazing

I have another Stamperia Spring Botanic card to share today, I love the pretty colours in this collection and I have a bit of a thing about insects and butterflies.

I have used three of the papers along with a border and a topper, the sentiment is another one from the Lisa Horton Crafts Wordage Sheets, there are lots of really useful sentiments on each sheet. I have inked the edges of everything and used my Die-namics Fishtail Flag dies to cut the banners.
