This is a very simple card to make. The banner and sentiment pull the whole thing together. I’ve used different patterns for each panel but they are all from the same collection so they match very well. The little bit of white around the panels really makes everything pop.

I love this stamp set. Such cute dinky images. I’ve coloured this little girl with the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I love them. Really simply colouring. I used artistic licence with the colour of the bird as I wanted the contrast in colours. The paper is from Hugs of Happiness. It’s a rainbow design and you can see the other half of it below.

Welcome to this Focus Friday project. Today we are looking at using dies to create your own stencils. I used the Basic Border dies to make this stencil.

I love the new in-colour, Orchid Oasis. It’s beautiful!! This card was created using second and first-generation stamping. It creates this lovely tonal variation in colour in the background. The hydrangea is heat embossed in white embossing powder so that it pops from the background.

Do you like lemon in your tea? I actually don’t but I do love lemons. I put lemon juice on lots of things and use it as a substitute for vinegar quite often.

These lemons in the tea boutique paper are so cute and I just had to use them. It is so summery and vibrant.

I love the corals and oranges in this card. The butterflies are stamped in a black that I can heat emboss. I used Versafine onyx black. I then heat embossed in a clear embossing powder. This helps the watercolour stay in the lines. The watercolouring is very simple using Pumpkin Pie and Calypso Coral ink pads.

I adore this Hello Ladybug stamp set and have used it a number of times already. This little ladybird is just so cute. I’ve heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder so that it can be seen against the red patterned paper. Hopefully, this ladybird will make your wishes come true.
