Timeless Tulips – Spotlighting – Stampin’ Up!

As followers of my blog will know, my favourite flowers are Tulips. I simply adore them. When I saw this the Timeless Tulips stamp set and matching punch I knew I had to have them.

I’ve kept the colours very simple with just red and white. I love the contrast between real red and whisper white. I spotlighted the actual tulip flower in red with a black stem to highlight this.

Tulips do signify the start of Spring and warm weather to me. They are beautiful blooms even when they are dying and the petals fall open like orchids.

I felt the white background was a little bland and so I ran it the through the Basket Weave embossing folder to give it some subtle texture. I’ve not been using my embossing folder for ages so I decided I must start using them more as well.

Broadway Birthday – Wish – Birthday Card

I have a bright and cheerful birthday card to share with you today. This card uses the Broadway Birthday stamp set and matching Broadway Lights dies. This is another set I’ve had for a few months and not used. I, therefore, felt the time was right for it to makes its debut performance.

Melon Mambo is one of my favourite colours and here I have combined it with another favourite, Bermuda Bay. I am totally in love with the combination. The wish sentiment is bold and bright and very much my style. Big and bold focal images make for easy cards with a great wow factor.

I have used a white gel pen to make the stitching lines and to give accents to the balloons. I think it really lifts the piece. The clear epoxy droplet on the dot of the I give it some real bling.

At this time of the year, the focus is on Christmas Crafting but this can mean we forget we still need cards for many other occasions. I, therefore, plan to scatter some non-Christmas projects in my videos right up to Christmas.
