Wild & Sweet

Hi & welcome,

I was asked to make a card with a koala so used the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775) which has this beautiful koala image.

I stamped the koala with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) onto Basic White card (#159228). The leaves were coloured with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885). I added some extra colour to the koala with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882), and Ivory Stampin’ Blends (#154922) and Crumb Cake to the branches. I added Balmy Blue ink (#147105) with a Blending Brush (#153611) to the background. The koala and the Gold frame were cut with a die from the Fabulous Frames (#159163) and both attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The Gold Foil (#132622) was used for the frame and the card front. I punched the corners of the Gold Foil with the now retired Detailed Trio Punch. The Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) was dry embossed with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766). The corners were cut with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878).

“Happy Birthday” is from my favourite greetings stamp set, Go To Greetings (#158763) and stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#1147095). This was cut with a die from the Something Fancy Dies (#160424) and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Hand-Drawn Blooms

Welcome my friends,

I find colouring quite relaxing & it was fun colouring this floral image from the Hand-Drawn Blooms (#152565).

The flowers and stems are separate images. I stamped both images using Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) onto Basic Black card (#159228). I used a variety of Stampin’ Blends - Daffodil Delight (#154883), Highland Heather (#154887), Pool Party (#154894), Real Red (#154899), Granny Apple Green (#154885), Cherry Cobbler (#154880), Pumpkin Pie (#154897) and Polished Pink (#155520).

I then dry embossed the card front using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406) and punched the corners with the Detailed Trio Punch (#146320). This card was then matted with Daffodil Delight card (#121680) and attached to the Basic White base card.

Congratulations is also from the Hand-Drawn Blooms stamp set and stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink. A die from the Ornate Frames (#150664) was used to cut the sentiment. I attached this to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The Gold Shimmer Ribbon (#152156) was used to make the bow and then attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The embellishments are from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials (#155567).

Stay safe & keep crafting!!
