Twisted Explosion Card

I saw this on another blog and had to have a go.  This is such an easy card to make and so effective.  I recently made one for an engagement and each member of the family signed one of the four cards in the pockets.

I've used the new In Colours and the Chalk Talk stamp set to decorate the outside of the card.  Inside, I've stamped the card inserts using Betsy's Blossoms stamp set which is so versatile.   I've had this stamp set for a while and not really used it until now.  It's one of my favourites so I will be using it more and more.

I'm holding a class to make twisted explosion cards on 22 August.  Message me for details if you'd like to join me or book here.

Another card from Caroline Hallet's class last week was made using one of the hostess sets from the 2013-14 catalogue.  I think the hostess stamp sets are sometimes overlooked but this is a fabulous stamp set which I will be using regularly in future.

The colours are from the latest In Colours - coastal cabana and baked brown sugar.  Don't you just love the names!

We will be using the 2013-2015 In Colours in our Twisted Explosion Cards Class on 22 August.  To book your place, click here.
