Just for you,

 Hi everyone,

Today I am sharing a card using a stamp set from the new Simon Says Stamp release called ‘Friend Like You’. The set has multiple sentiments suitable for any occasion.

I started by creating my background using a rectangle masking stencil so that I could have a clean white border for my card front.

I then applied another stencil over stop and blended on 3 different colours of Distress ink. Added splatters of black paint.

The red background layer to my card was created by using a new A5 embossing folder from Sizzix.

I stamped the sentiments with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

I popped up the sentiments with foam tape and then added them to the front of my card.

Well that’s it for my card today and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Happy Spring

Hi everyone,

Well today is the first day of Spring and I have a couple of cards to share with you using the Farm Life stamp set from the new Rain or Shine release from https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/collections/rain-or-shine

For my first card I stamped the barn and coloured with Copic markers. 

Masked off the barn and then blended the background with Distress inks.

I then stamped all the cute little farm animals and coloured with Copics.

Added a grass die cut border and foam mounted the animals.

The background for my scene was created with a stripe stencil and Distress inks.

For my second card I used a cloud stencil and Distress ink to create the background.

I embossed the piece with a large postage die.

I stamped the cute ducks and used Distress watercolour pencils to colour them in and also the background of each.

I used a postage die set to cut them out.

Stamped the sentiment and embossed with white embossing powder.

Well that’s it for my cards today and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️

Hi everyone,

It’s been a while since I have posted here but I thought I would share a little love today which is much needed these days with the world as it is.

Anyways wherever you are and whomever you are sharing today with, please enjoy yourselves and share some love ❤️ ❤️❤️

Now on to my card.

I created my background with Distress ink and a little water on a piece of watercolour card stock using a smooshing technique and then added a little Distress spritz spray.

I used an embossing folder to create the tiny heart background.

I added a strip of very light pink vellum also embossed with the same embossing folder under the stacked hearts.

I used a heart die set and cut 5 different sized hearts with shiny red card stock. I also added a floral Idea-ology strip just under the hearts.

I added a couple of Idea-ology hearts which I had coloured with Alcohol inks and then added a stamped sentiment.

Well that’s it for my card today and thanks so much for stopping by 🙏🏻

See you soon.
