Stamp Ink Paper Challenge #29 - Sketch Challenge

Hello Everyone,


Happy Tuesday and welcome to our Stamp Ink Paper challenge this week.  This sketch was actually designed by me, but I did have a little help from the team to convert it to a digital format so as to look a little more professional.  I've made my card in advance because by this stage my arm will be in a sling due to shoulder surgery I had in the New Year and I will be out of action for some time, weeks in fact if not a month or more.




I'm using Floral patterned paper from English Garden for my background, combined with cardstock of Island Indigo, Whisper White and Rich Razzleberry.

Stamps used are Papillon Potpourri Butterfly set and Well Scripted vintage set for the greeting.
The seam binding ribbon is some vintage Pool Party from my stash.




Here is a closer look




Thanks so much for stopping by today.  We hope you will join us this week at Stamp Ink Paper for the sketch challenge.

    Hello Carolyn, by the time you read this you will have had your shoulder surgery. I just wanted to send you my very best wishes for your recovery. Having had my left shoulder operated on twice. The advice I would offer is do what the physio tells you, even if it is uncomfortable. Heres to a speedy recovery.

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
