Isn’t this bear cute? He looks so happy, gorging himself on honey. I love how the honey is dripping out of the pot. I used a mixture of stamped and die-cut elements to make this card.

The main image is coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I love these as they are so easy to colour with. I generally start with my darker colour and then blend with the lighter one. Just be careful not to over-saturate your image. If I want to add more colour, I will let the image dry and then come back and work on it again.

I do love stencils. They are amazing. There is so much you can do with them. I get every stencil Stampin’ Up! release. They are perfect for easy backgrounds and focal images alike.

The stencil I’ve used today is part of the Abundant Beauty pack. It creates a simple autumnal background. You can use just one ink colour or multiple colours as I’ve done today. I took my blending brushes and ink pads and had lots of fun.

Ombre Stamping – Make a Simple Birthday Card

I am resisting the Ombre technique. This allows you to merge two similar tones of colour on one image. It looks great and the best part is, that it’s very easy to achieve.

You can use a sponge dauber, blending brush or piece of sponge to achieve this effect. I stamped my image, which is my birthday sentiment in one lightest colour. In this example that is Flirty Flamingo. I then inked up the bottom part of the image with the darker colour and restamped it.

I love using layering stencils, they make a card so easily. Layering stencils also allow you to create extra depth and dimension. You can layer simple colours for even greater interest.

I normally use Basic White cardstock but I decided to change things up this time and use Crumb Cake. This is the first time I’ve done this and I am so happy with the effect. Do you stencil on coloured cardstock?

I love the Trucking Along punch. Firstly I love any punch and secondly, it’s a truck punch!! My granny always drove a pickup truck. I loved riding around in the back of the truck. Such good memories!!

These trucks have been paper pieced together from designer series paper and cardstock. It is a great way to use up your scraps as you don’t need much to make each truck. I’ve added some highlights with a white gel pen to help the image pop.

This cute little box opens just like a pizza box. It is super easy to make and a great size. The one above is made using Misty Moonlight cardstock and the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper (DSP).

I’ve made another in Basic Black using the Zoo Crew DSP. I love the contrast between the black card and the white paper. So Striking! Which colour way do you like best?

I love the Les Shoppes suite of products from Stampin’ Up! They include the stamps and dies that I’ve used above as well as paper and sequins. You can do so much with these stamps and dies. I love stamps that allow you to build a scene. There are endless possibilities for customisation. You could have a street of shops, tables, benches, flowers and of course that lovely lamp post.

I think the shop window would make a lovely shaker card. You could have the door opening to reveal a hidden image or sentiment. The paper is gorgeous as well with lots of shop fronts if you don’t want to stamp and colour your own.

This bag will fold flat for storage. The sides and base are expandable which allows it to lie flat but also stand up as shown. The bag is a great size to store some notecards and envelopes.

I’ve made this bag in two colour ways. The one above features the Countryside Inn designer series paper (DSP) which I love. The one below is Fresh as a Daisy and the colour is Pecan Pie. Which do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.

I love big blowsy flowers. They are just so striking, divas of the floral world. These are so easy to stamp and then you can layer them up to make any arrangement you choose.

There is quite a bit of white space on this card. I’ve used the timer embossing folder to give some subtle interest in the background. This is one of my favourite ways to use embossing folders.

I’ve made this card in two different colour variations, which do you like?
