Spring Card – Bird Ballad – Peaceful Moments

I have this lovely Spring card to share with you. The bird ballad paper is gorgeous and this blossom pattern reminds me of Spring.

I love the soft pastel colours of this card. This card is great for a spring wedding card or birthday card. As you may know, I do like simple cards with simple sentiments. They are easy to make but still look beautiful.

I find myself using these stitched shaped dies a lot. The stitching detail is lovely and they come in a variety of shapes. I was so sad when we lost our oval punches but these certainly fill the gap.

Elephants – Baby Card – Wildly Happy Stamp Set

I have a baby elephants card to share with you today. This card uses the Wildly Happy stamp set I won in Prize Patrol back in April at Onstage Local in Telford. I am happy as this is a cute set featuring parents and babies.

Smokey Slate Light and Dark Stampin’ Blends are being used to colour in these elephants. They are alcohol markers and they blend beautifully. It is so easy to achieve shading and depth of interest with these markers.

These elephants speak to me as they remind me of home. I am born in the UK but my mother was born in South Africa and all my maternal family are still there. When I was younger we went to the Kruger National Park. I remember seeing the elephants crossing the road in front of our car.

measurements

  • Granny Apple Cardbase – A6 – (A6 is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
  • Whisper White – 3 1/4″ X 51/4″
  • Granny Apple Green Designer Series Paper (DSP) 3″ x 5″

The other images in this set are a fox, rabbits and a cute panda. They are great for many styles of cards but in particular babies.

I do enjoy colouring in whether it be with Stampin’ Blends, watercolours or even acrylic paints. It is so soothing and therapeutic.
