First Drink Coffee

Hi Crafty Friends!

While prepping for the upcoming Birthday Celebrations over at STAMPlorations, I felt the need to go down Memory Lane...

I picked a couple of retired sets that I hadn't used in a long time and used them in my background.

They were combined with one of the new focal fronts and sticker sentiment from the new paper goods and sticker collections in the STAMPlorations Shop to give you a little teaser of what's ahead for their upcoming celebrations.

Oh, by the way, my favourite brew is a black coffee...

I'm entering my card at:

Time Out Challenge 341 - Favourite Beverage, mine is a black coffee

That's it from me for today.

Wishing you all a lovely week.

Monochrome and Timeless - take 2

Hi Crafty Friends!

Just sharing a 2nd take on a card I shared a couple of weeks ago ...

I simply used the stencil a second time to use the ink which was left on the stencil itself. I simply sprayed the stencil with a little water and used it to print the trees on my piece of card.

The florals and quote were stamped in the same way as for my previous card.

Here are both next to each other...

That's it from me for now. Wishing you a lovely day.

Love Filled Home

Hi Crafty Friends!

Just sharing a little card I made for a friend who recently moved house. Have a look ...

I picked one of the Whimsical Homes ATCs as my focal point. For the background I reached for my favourite non-black ink which is ... Elegant Eggplant, an almost black dark purple, which complemented the colours of my chosen topper rather well.

The Blossom Sprays 4 was stamped long both sides before adding some texture with the Circles All Over Texture Cover Plate Die. my sentiment was made up using stamps from the Sentiment Builder: Christmas & New Year set which was retired some time ago.

I layered it all up and finished off with a couple of sequins.
