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.

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.

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?

I love that the sentiments in this set match the images perfectly. You can pile anything you want into this trolley. Below is an example of a trolley filled with flowers. Perfect!! You can use any little images you have in your stash.

I’ve used the Wink of Stella clear pen to sparkle the trolley frame. The plain cardstock looks like metal. Do you agree?

I’m back with another floral card. This one features the Simply Zinnia stamp and die bundle. This card is bright and happy. I’ve kept the colour palette limited to green, yellow and orange and they all work together well.

The image is coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. Remember always to use Memento Tuxedo Black when using these markers instead of Stazon. Another tip is to ensure the ink is dry before you start colouring. This limits the chance of the ink bleeding.
