Stamp Ink Paper #20 - Colour Challenge with Watercolor wonder Butterflies

Hello Everyone,

Happy Tuesday to you and welcome to our Colour challenge this week at Stamp Ink Paper.  Here are the details:-




If I'm ever in doubt with what to create for my cards I know I can always rely on my butterflies and I decided that I would use the Watercolor wonder set for this challenge combined with the matching butterfly framelits.  I actually made two cards today with similar supplies.  Come and take a look.




The cardstock for both cards is Early Espresso for the base and Whisper White for the embossed background.  I've also used the Gold Foil with the Greeting & Butterfly thinlits on these cards.  The first one uses the Lovely Lace embossing folder.




They were finished off with Blushing Bride ribbon and some Gold cord and pearls.




The second card uses the Decorative Dots embossing folder.




Here's a closer look at this butterfly as I did something a bit different with this one with the gold cord to create feelers.







We hope you will join us over at Stamp Ink Paper this week with a card of your own for our Colour challenge.  Have a great day.

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
