Lovely as a Tree

Hello friends,

Firstly, I hope you all had a very happy and safe Christmas, which I did with all the family here. After everyone left I spent the last 2 days re-organising my craft room and couldn't wait to start stamping again. It's only a few more days - 5th January- when you can start ordering from the new catalogue with so many exciting new products on offer. As well as this, Sale-a-bration is here again, so with every $90 worth of products you order you will earn free products of your choice from the Sale-a-bration catalogue. Today I am giving you a sneek peak of one of the stamp sets, Perfect Pairings (#c141261, #w141258) which have a range of sentiments which can be used alone or with a matching pair as I have used here.

I have used Soft Suede ink (#126978) for the sentiment as well as the trees. After stamping the trees from Lovely as a Tree (#c127793, #w128655), I cut this into 3rds and taped them onto the Soft Suede card (#119982) with a small space in between. I also sponged the edges using a dauber and Soft Suede ink. The base card is Whisper White (#106549).

Sale-a-bration runs from 5th January till 31st March 2016. There are some products available throughout this period, however there are some products that are available only till 15th February, then there will be a release of more products for the remaining time. So make sure you don't miss out on the products that you want.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Merry Christmas

Hello everyone,

Firstly I would like to wish everyone a very happy Christmas and best wishes for the New Year. I am taking a short break from the blog but will be back after Christmas with lots more cards. 

The Dove is from the Dove of Peace stamp set (#w139800). I stamped and heat set this with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing powder (#109129) on Soft Sky card (#131292). The other cardstock is Whisper White (#106549) and Night Of Navy (#106577). The Deco Labels Collection Framelits (#130102) cut the labels which I then attached the dove to using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). I embossed the white label with the Softly Falling embossing folder (#139672). The sentiment is from the Peaceful Wreath stamp set (#p139794) and stamped with Night of Navy ink (#126970).

Thanks for your support this year.

Wishing you Peace, Joy, Love and good health this Christmas.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Birthday Blossoms

Welcome ladies,

I have used part of the sentiment from Birthday Blosssoms set (#c139471, #w139167). "Celebrate You" is the actual stamp but I only wanted to use "celebrate", so once I stamped this, I punched celebrate with the Word Window punch (#119857), then attached this to the Night of Navy card punched with the Washi Label (#138296). The card stock is Daffodil Delight (#121680), Night Of Navy (#106577), Whisper White (#106549) and Brights DSP Stack (#138434). The flowers are from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set and stamped with Night Of Navy ink (#126970). The co-ordinating punch for these flowers is the Pansy Punch (#130698). The small flowers are punched with the Tree Builder punch (#138295). The ribbon is Whisper White 5/8" Satin Ribbon (#134549).

The count down to Christmas continues. This time next week it will all be over for another year. I hope you all have a great week.

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Butterfly Birthday

Hello,

I have just received some of the new products from the next seasonal catalogue and I can't wait to share them with you. As a demonstrator we can get the products earlier so we can start planning our projects. The catalogue is available from 4th January, so not too much longer to wait. There are so many fantastic new products, I'm looking forward to start playing with them (as soon as I get some time).

Meanwhile here is a lovely simple Birthday card with Butterflies.

I stamped the splotches from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set (#c130517, #w130514) onto the Whisper White card (#106549) using Mint Macaron ink (#138326). The ribbon is the Mint Macaron 1" Dotted Lace Trim (#138424). The butterfly cut from Mint Macaron card (#138344) has been cut with the Bold Butterly Framelits (#138135). The Butterflies Thinlits (#137360) cut the butterfly from the Gold Foil Sheets (#132622). Both butterflies were attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). Happy Birthday is from the Butterfly Basics stamp set (#c138816, #w138813, #p137154). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Embossing Powder (#109129), then heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

Have a great day.

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.

Sympathy card

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately I needed 2 Sympathy cards this week and this is one of the ones I made.

I love the Shimmery White card  (#121717) for special cards so that's what I have used today. The silver is Silver Foil Sheet (#132178) and the leaves were cut from the Silver Glimmer Paper (#135314) using the Bird Builder Punch (#117191). I stamped a flower from the Beautiful Bunch stamp set (#c134282, #w134279) on the card using the metallic silver ink, now retired. Then on another piece of card I stamped the same flower with VersaMark (#102283) and added Silver Embossing Powder (#109131), which was heat set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was then punched with the Fun Flower Punch (#133785) and placed over the first image using Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were glued to the card using the 2-wat glue pen (#104425). The sentiment is from the Petite Pairs stamp set (#c122497, #w128706) and also heat embossed with silver.

Have a great day. 

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Sprinkles Of Life

Hello and welcome,

I don't make a lot of kids cards but decided to make this today which of course would be suitable for any kid (big or little).

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550), with Rich Razzleberry (#119981) and Bermuda Bay (#131286) which co-ordinate with the colours in the Bohemian DSP (#138446). The ink is Rich Razzleberry (#126950), Bermuda Bay (#131171) and Delightful Dijon (#138327). Happy Birthday is from the Endless Birthday Wishes (#p140273). The ice-cream is from the Sprinkles of Life stamp set (#p139971) and the ice-cream scoops were punched with the co-ordinating Tree Builder punch (#138295). I added some glitter to these using the 2-way Glue Pen (#100425) then sprinkling with Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter (#133751). The top "scoop" was attached with Stampin' Dimensionals (#104430).

Till next time,

Happy Stamping!

Lesley.
