The Birds & Branches stamp set has sat in my stash for nearly a year unused. I wanted to use it but have always struggled to use birds in my cards. What do you think of this one? I think it really works with the sentiment.

The birds are stamped with the two- step stamping technique. This gives them their yellow and brown plumage. You could try any combinations of plumage of your choice but I preferred the So Saffron and Soft Suede. The foliage I die cut out of Mossy Meadow cardstock with adhesive sheet on the back. This made them super easy to stick down. If you have’t ever used adhesive sheet I would highly recommend you try it as it makes it so easy to stick down intricate die cuts.

I love this idea of these balloon carrying this pretty parasol off into the wind. I’ve used only primary colours. They are Real Red, Pacific Point and Daffodil Delight. These colours all work well together and therefore don’t clash but really pop against the white.

I used a white gel pen on the parasol to give it some highlights with the dots. This makes the whole piece pop even more. It is a very easy and simple card to make using up scraps which is always a good thing.

I normally struggle with shaker cards but this one was super easy to make and I was over the moon with how it turned out. How pretty is this card? These shaker mason jar domes are seriously cute. I’m definitely buying a few more packs to hoard. Everything is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. Colouring in is so therapeutic. It keeps me out of mischief for hours!!

The stamp set is Jars of Love. It comes with many different bunches of flowers and even the stems to stamp in the jar. I’ve fussy cut the flowers out and of course there is a matching mason jar punch.

The stamp used here is a “A Little Lace”. It’s beautiful and I’ve used it a number of times in both cards and gift bags. It’s a great set to use to stamp your own patterned paper. You can make a bespoke design in just the colour and size you want.

The colours I used here are Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie. It keeps it very tone on tone and yet it is still vibrant and colourful. The elegant faceted gems just give it that touch of bling to lift the whole card.

  • Basic White – 14.35cm X 10cm

Simple and Elegant Card – Beautiful World – World of Good – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

This is a a very simple card to make. The sentiment is so cute ” Life is a beautiful journey” and it finishes on the inside “Thank you being part of mine”. The paper is called World of Good and each sheet has brass foiling. I’ve matched it with the foiling sheet I used to mat the sentiment.

I hardly ever use Crumb Cake cardstock but is a great neutral colour which I need to start to use more don’t you think? It would be a great masculine card choice with this designer series paper. I’m trying to go out of my comfort zone and use different colour combinations.

measurements

  • Crumb Cake A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • World of Good designer series paper –
    • 14.35cm X 10cm,
    • 4cm X 14.35cm,
    • 14.35cm x 3.5cm
