This card was one we made in a recent card club. I love the bold font and vibrant colours. It features the Choose Happy stamp set. I love his set. It is full of sentiments and lots of little images to use on cards or even in your planner. The version below is much more tonal using Balmy Blue and Moody Mauve. Which do you like better?

This card has a woodland almost autumnal feel to it. I love these toadstools. They bring a pop of colour to an otherwise very neutral colour palette. I stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock and distressed the image using Crumb Cake ink. The toadstools are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers, my favourite colouring medium.

I have these lovely floral cards to share today. Both of these use Layers of Beauty stencils without the stamp set. This bundle is so versatile and all the results are amazing.

The version above uses Poppy Parade, Real Red and Cherry Cobbler. I have a lovely red rose outside my front door, which inspired this card. My neighbours have a yellow rose and this inspired the card below. Which one do you prefer? Let me know in the comments.

I used the Most Adored Designer Series Paper (DSP) to make these lovely birthday cards. This is a freebie during Sale-a-bration (SAB). For every qualifying purchase you can choose a free item from the SAB catalogue and this was one of my choices.

You can see below the second card in the shuffle. I haven’t made up the third card as yet. You need to shuffle the pieces of paper around to the third position. The video tutorial below will explain it in more detail.

This straightforward card design makes great use of your patterned paper. I have cut the paper at an angle and can use the second piece to make another card. The paper is aptly named, Merry, Bold & Bright. I love this bright dot design, don’t you?

The strings of lights are die-cut with matching cardstock. The dies are the Merry & Bright and they coordinate with both the paper and the stamp set.

I have this great-sized gift box to share with you today. This box will hold a set of A6 cards and envelopes. What a great Christmas gift.

This is a simple box to make. It measures 6 3/4″ X 5″ and is 2″ deep. I’ve made the box into different colour combinations. Which one do you like best? Let me know in the comments below.

The sentiment for here is stamped in Real Red / Blueberry Bushel Ink. This is dried and the sentiment is restamped using Versamark ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. This is a great trick if you don’t have a ton of different coloured embossing powders.

This card is colourful but I’ve only used a limited colour palette of primary colours. My first version uses Real Red, Crushed Curry and Azure Afternoon. I used the colours in the cardstock and the balloons. Repeating the colours gives the card a cohesive feel.

The second card is the same design but is of the pastel variety. The colours are Petal Pink, Balmy Blue and Lemon Lolly. Which version do you think is best? Let me know in the comments below.

How to Make a Blended Rainbow Card – Wanted to Say – Quiet Meadow – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I was inspired to make this card after watching a video on YouTube by Nichol Spohr. She used different products but I adapted it to what I had. I love the way it turned out.

It really isn’t difficult to achieve a seamless blended background. There are a number of tips I can give you. One is not to overload your blending brush, secondly, I tap off my brush on my grid paper before I start to blend and thirdly take your time going back and forwards between colours until you achieve something you are happy with.
