Hello Perfect Blend

Hi Everyone,

How is your day going?  Looks like our rain has left us here for the moment.  The sun is shining and that means with the wed ground and the humidity in the air, that its quite hot and sticky weather.  We have the air con running inside.

Today's card uses a combination of sets with the main image, coffee cup from the set called Perfect Blend.  I've combined this with Everything Eleanor (swirl) and Perfect Pennants (Hello).

Here is my card.


You might also notice I've also added a little butterfly from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set.  While it has nothing to do with coffee, it does go with friends.  So many of you know how much butterflies feature on my cards.  My friends would think it strange it I stray away from them for too long...Lol.

Have a closure look at my coffee cup.


The cardstock used is Pool Party & Whisper White.  I've added texture to my white background with the Square lattice embossing folder after I've stamped.  The patterned paper used comes from the pack Eastern Elegance.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Enjoy your Saturday.

Hello Everyone, Welcome to our Wednesday card sketch challenge at the Paper Craft Crew.  Here's our sketch this week    I'm using some designer papers called Merry Moments combined with Festival of Trees stamp and greeting from Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The cardstock used is Whisper White and Smoky Slate with inks of Old Olive and Real Red.  The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set and has been punched out with the Washi Tape punch. Here's a closer look.  I love how the Designer papers add so much colour this this card.  The Festival of trees stamp has been combined with the Tree punch for this card. Thanks so much for joining me this week to view my card.  For more inspiration please visit the Paper Craft Crew challenge and see what our other Designers have created this week. Have a great day.

Light up your Christmas

Hi Everyone, You all know how I love my Easel Cards right?  Well I've added a little light to them in the form of the little battery operated candles.  Neil bought me some boxes of them online.  I've been playing around with a couple of different designs which are for an upcoming class of very Special Christmas cards with my group but thought you might like to see them.  This is the first one I've done using the retired stamp set Christmas Lodge.  It's a gorgeous set with this beautiful tree and really suits a vintage style Christmas Card.  I've also used the Deco Label Framelits which are fast becoming a favourite and the Beautifully Baroque and Fancy Fan Embossing Folders. The Cardstock is Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla. I have the light on so you can see the gorgeous effect from the little candle.  Here is a photo when it's off. This is how it looks from the side.  It's like a tent.  Extra card was added to the len
