I love these children on their pretend boat seeking out adventures. So cute!! I’ve built the scene to look as if they are at sea but we know it’s all in the imagination. I used to love making up stories as a child and playing games based on stories I read—different times, before computers.

Large Bold Background Stamps – Easy Card Design Tutorial

Leaf Collection is a large bold background stamp. It is a busy background stamp and I feel all it needs to make a card is a sentiment. When I designed this card I was limited in the stamp sets I could use. I would have loved to use the retired Biggest Wish stamp set. I do think it would do well with a larger sentiment. When I get my main order from the new catalogue I am going to redesign this card with some different sentiments.

The above card uses Shy Shamrock and the one below is Pretty in Pink. They are both new in-colours I love them.

Cheerful Daisies – One Idea for a Floral Birthday Card

Cheerful Daisies – One Idea for a Floral Birthday Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love this colour combo for these daisies. It is Pretty in Pink and Petunia Pop. They are two of the new in-colours. Aren’t they pretty? Daisies have a special place in my heart as my Granny always had a yellow daisy bush in her garden.

Cheerful Daisies is a two-step stamp set. Instead of stamping the outline in black, I used Petunia Pop for a softer feel. I love how it turned out.

This is a simple diagonal card design. I cut the designer series paper (DSP) on the diagonal, point to point and used both pretty patterns. The stamp set is Attention Shoppers and the sentiment is perfect for this card with the two gift bags.

If you open the card you will find a tuck spot for a gift card or voucher.

I am sharing this clean and simple “Thinking of you Card”. It uses the Painted Lavender dies rather than the stamp set. The white background is embossed using the Zinnia 3D embossing folder to give some subtle interest.

We made this card in my monthly online card club that I host in my Facebook group. If you want to join the next one, you can find all the details here.

I recycled the acetate wrapping from our dies to create these shaker cards. The above card uses the Thoughtful Journey designer series paper (DSP) and the one below the Meandering DSP. I will admit the sequins are from my stash. I have no idea where I got them.

This lovely floral is coloured using stencils and nothing else. Isn’t it amazing? I think so. I was glad to find this new stamp, stencil and die set in the catalogue. It makes beautiful floral cards a breeze. I used Lemon Lolly, Daffodil Delight and Crushed Curry for the card above. The one below is Petal Pink, Pretty in Pink and Flirty Flamingo. Which do you like best?
