This beautiful birthday card is made useing the Daisy Lane stamp set

I have used Call Me Clover, Mint Macaron and Whisper white card stock. I have then stamped the leaf image in Call Me Clover Ink, as a tone on tone, to make the background.

I have then stamped the stem in Call Me Clover and instead of re-inking the stamp I have done second generation stamping to get the lighter colour. I have also done the same technique with the flower stamp in Crushed Curry. This is a great technique to get more out of your ink pads.

I have then stamped the birthday phase in Mint Macaron (from the Beautiful You stamp set)

Then I have matted my Whisper white onto a Mint Macaron card and then layered this onto the front of the card off centre.

Thanks for stopping by

By the tide Birthday card

It was my Husband's birthday recently and he loves his fishing, so I made him this card.

I have used By the tide stamp set, Island Indigo and Crumb cake inks and card stock.

This was another play with the new in colours, just love them all

Today I have been playing with the new in-colour Blackberry Bliss (love it)

and the Moonlight paper stacks.  The stamp is also new from our 

Annual Catalogue called Traveler

I was recently asked to make a card for a girls 16th.

 The colors I have used are Strawberry Slush and Daffodil Delight

I have also used the new Little Letters Framelits and the two butterfly punches 

Sorry I haven't bloged for a little while, but school holidays are here and time for

 ones self is very few and far between.

So here is photo of my last class, everyone loved there little Easter basket and I don't think 

too many of the eggs made it home.  I got the design from "theladybugstampinspot.blogspot.com"

They also made two Male and Female cards,  

I used Pear Pizza and Strawberry Slush for the female card 

and on the male card I used Crumb cake, Early espresso and Real Red.

I have seen similar designs on Pinterest, just change some of the colours and stamps

Mum's 70th Birthday Card

My mum recently had a birthday and I wanted to make a special card for her. Not only was it her 70th but she would be away overseas, so I want to send her a really nice card and send it to her.
