Very Special

Hi Crafty Friends!

Last one of the monster cards to begin the week.

Again it's a stenciled and stamped background to show off the pink monster. Finishing off was with a stamped sentiment, a touch of glitter and a couple of sequins.

That's it from me for today. Wishing you a lovely week with lots of smiles.

Perfect Day

Hi Friends!

Just a quick post today sharing my DT piece for the Inspiration Post over on the STAMPlorations blog ...



It was rather a cloudy and rainy day in the UK which called for the need of a cheery card. I stared off by choosing the sentiment. Next I sized, printed, lightly pencil coloured and fuzzy cut the coffee cup. I popped it all on a cheery cloudy background and finished off with a couple of small hearts.

And yes, my cups of coffee are always full to the brim.

Here are the STAMPlorations products I used in today's card:

Spring Coffee & Anemone set of 3 digital stamps, Coffee And Mondays, Clouds Square Stencil

Be Strong

Hi Friends!

Another week and another helping of lovely projects over at STAMPlorations in the Inspiration Post over on their blog. Here is my DT contributions ...

I'm in the process of sorting through bits in my craft room and came across a background I made a while ago which gave me the idea for Triangles Flexi-Template. You should be able to use them to do something similar.

I started off by blending the card with yellow (Daffodil Delight), added a couple of frames as masks where the colour is still yellow, sponged a bit of Bermuda Bay for the green and Rose Red for the pink/orange. I then added some stamping and water bleaching using stamps from the Art Marks and Mixed Media Grunge sets.

I finished the tag off with a silhouette from Beautiful You and a sentiment from  the Inspirational #1 Clear Stickers. My base card has a lightly sponged brick wall as background and the card was finished off with a few sequins.

Here are the STAMPlorations products I used in today's card:

Inspirational #1 Clear Stickers, Beautiful You, Art Marks 

 

Mixed Media Grunge, Brick Wall Stencil, Stitched Tags Nesting Dies

Oh Frap!

 Hi Crafty Friends!

It's Tuesday and this means it's Inspiration Time over at STAMPlorations plus it is also the start of the National Coffee Day Hop. Given that STAMPlorations are one of their Super Sponsors, it had to be something coffee themed.

Here is today's DT project ...

Well I went a little bit coffee mad and created a collage background using a few coffee themed stickers which I adhered to the result of a little play time I had with the Triangles Flexi-Templates and the Make Marks 2 stencil. To complement an autumnal colour scheme I layered my panel on a kraft base card and finished off with the Coffee Cup Silhouette and a die-cut sentiment.

National Coffee Day Hop

If you love coffee and you want to join the National Coffee Day Hop, you can find the full hop on the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Blog here.

Until October 6 STAMPlorations are offering 20% off instantly on all coffee themed products listed on their National Coffee Day Sale page.

Just Hello

Hello Crafty Friends!

This is one of those quick cards I could make all day long. I simply blended some Daffodil Delight SU ink with a touch of Pumpkin Pie for extra depth using the Petals 3 ARTplorations Stencil. 

I finished off with sequin and  a sentiment from the Trendy Feathers 2 set.
