MFT Sketch Challenge

Hi All, 

Today's card will be entered in the My Favourite Things Sketch Challenge!

Using my distress inks i created a water coloured background for my card. I then added droplets to the page to lift up some of the colour! I used the Wplus9 Silver Bells stamp & die set to cut out the stamped images and also the sentiment. Todays card is honestly one of my favourite holiday card to date. I love that its simple yet elegant.

Congrats to you two: Wedding Card

Hi All,

Today's card it yet another wedding card. I just can't seem to keep up with the amount of weddings happening at the moment. Its spring here in Australia...so its wedding season!!

This card is super simple. First off the base is Neenah Desert Storm 110lb cardstock. I then used some patterned paper from the Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit 2015. Using the Your Perfect Day stamp set from Stampin Up, I stamped on Whisper White Cardstock , backed on Crumb Cake cardstock, with Licorice Black ink from Lawn Fawn. With some clear sequins from Pretty Pink Posh added for a little extra bling, my card was done!!

Thanks for popping by...happy crafting!!

Wedding Card: Stampin Up

Hi Everyone,

Todays post is inspired by Stampin Up's Your Perfect Day stamp set.

I love the simplicity of this card. There really isn't much to it!!

First I stamped the wreath & extra leaves in Pistachio Pudding Stampin Up Ink pad. I then used second generation Crisp Cantaloupe ink for the flowers (this means I inked up my stamp and then stamped on a piece of scrap paper and then onto my card. This gives a slightly lighter shade of the ink that was used)

I then used the sentiment 'Congrats to you two' from the stamp set, and stamped it in Black Licorice Lawn Fawn ink.

To finish this card I added some Pretty Pink Posh Clear 4mm & 6mm sequins.

SSS May Card Kit

Me again :)

Today I used the Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit 2015! I know it's a little late considering they are about to announce the July kit however, living in Australia we tend to get our kits quite late due to customs and I haven't had the chance to use it! 

Honestly...I had a hard time using these papers, only because they are so beautiful I was scared of using the papers and it not turning out how I had hoped! 

So here it is....

The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb and the stickers for the word 'congrats' are from the card kit aswell. 

Let me know what you think! Happy to hear all your thoughts :)
