Anniversary Card

Another one of my fave sets from Stampin Up - Everything Eleanor. Its just lovely...its includes the large flourish used for this anniversary card. The Colours are Basic Grey with Melon Mambo.

Happiest Birthday Wishes

This card uses one of the Hostess stamp sets from the main catalogue - Happiest Birthday Wishes for the sentiment. Now we ALL make birthday cards and this set has eleven stamps so no end to your creativity! Ive stamped over the background using the Happy Bday Builder Wheel. Great fun!

Colours are Pink Pirouette, Concord Crush and Whisper White.

Happy Birthday Paula

My friend Paulas birthday recently....an "easel" type card. Colours are Temting Turquoise, Pear Pizazz and Elegant Eggplant and uses the new Posy Punch stamp set

Moving House

Colours are Crumb Cake, Pacific Point and Wild Wasabi. Lovely combination. I've simply stamped using the Neighbournood Wheel and layered another house which has some colour added using markers. Finished off with a piece of Linen Thread and a felt piece from last years mini catty.

Stampin Up Equipment used: Eyelet Border Punch, Word Window Punch.

Valentines ...again!

These were the cards I made for my lovely children who will always be my valentines! My son actually said I couldnt be his valentine as I'm old enough to be his mother. How funny is that! (Slap!) Anyway....heres the cards and choccies.

New Baby!!

As of yesterday Im a Great Aunt...makes me sound really old! A baby girl.....

Heres my congratulations card

Watercolour paper & Markers

I wanted to have another go at stamping using markers as opposed to an ink pad onto watercolour paper again. Same design as one of the cards we made at convention with the Just Beleive stamp set. I do like this technique. I spritz with a bit of shimmer paint spray, just for a change. Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie and Red Riding Hood Red. Thanks for looking x

Growing Green!

My first stamp set purchased from the new catologue and clear mount too. This is "Growing Green". Ive also used the spritzer tool as well.....now thats a lot of fun!

New catty stamp set

I love the new stamp "Flower for You" and co-ordinating "Fancy Flower"punch and made this quick card also with the two new colour cardstocks, Marina Mist, Pear Pizazz which I think are lovely set of with the Real Red flower! Other stamps etc used are Fox & Friends plus the Baroque Border wheel, Basic Phrases sentiment, Birdie & circle punches. Thanks for looking x

Card Candy

I signed up for a card candy (toppers) swap for SU convention some time ago hedging my bets that the Spotlight on Christmas stamp set would feature in the new catologue.....well its retiring!! So I have to choose another stamp set now!! Seeing as I'd made one set of the candy I thought I would make them into cards anyway! Here they are.....Rich Razzleberry, Black, White & Old Olive.

Moving House

A card for a neighbour shortly moving from UK. Melon Mambo & Soft Sued cardstock, Cottage Wall DSP. I used the masking technique for the house & trees. Thanks for looking x
