Fancy Flower Card

This quick and easy card is inspired by Lindsey.  I love the simplicity of using the Fancy Flower Punch and a piece of  Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack (Brights) behind. 

Don't forget that Sale-a-Bration finishes on 31 March and the beautiful stamp sets and papers will disappear for good so if you want them, then contact me and place an order for £45 plus P&P.

Happy Birthday Charlotte ...

Today is Charlotte' birthday and I've made a card just for her.

The UPS man came this week and I just had to use one of my new stamp sets - My Friend.   The main card is Peach Parfait with Pear Pizzazz and Very Vanilla to complement it.

I have added some tiny flowers using the Itty Bitty Bits Punch and just couldn't resist using some of the gorgeous crochet ribbon to finish it off.

I've entered this in the Allsorts Challenge for February - Free and Easy.

Have a great day Charlotte

Pennants & Parties

No birthday would be complete without pennants and a party!

The Petite Pennants Builder is a great punch and goes perfectly with the Party This Way stampset.

Again the papers used are from the Just Add Cake DSP series which work perfectly for this card.  To add a bit more interest we added a tiny flower and pearl.  In the class, they used different stamps so had balloons in a colour to match their choice of paper.  Unfortunately I forgot to photograph them!

Rose Gift Box

I haven't made a pillow box gift box for a while so decided to include one in the recent class.  The beautiful rose is made using the owl punch and two circle punches and the lovely Just Add Cake DSP.

To add some texture, we used the Perfect Polka Dots textured impressions embossing folder.

This is just perfect for a chocolate treat or maybe a small piece of jewellery.

Valentine's Card

Stuck for inspiration for a Valentine's card?   How about using the Heart to Heart punch and matching stampset, I {heart} Hearts?

We also used the Sweetheart stamp set around the treat cup. The punched out heart didn't go to waste as you can see!

Finally a piece of the Just Add Cake DSP was edged with the Scallop Trim Border punch to make the background.

Yesterday's Card Class

Yesterday we had great fun making some cards with the Just Add Cake DSP which co-ordinates with Wild Wasabi, Poppy Parade, Peach Parfait, Baja Breeze, Blushing Bride, Early Espresso, So Saffron and Whisper White.

For the first card we used the wonderful Owl Builder Punch which everyone loves.  We used the Top Note die for the background, the Little Leaves Sizzlits die for the branch (we cut off a couple of the leaves and re-positioned them!) and the gorgeous organza ribbon.

Check back soon to see some more of the cards we made.

The next class is on Saturday 25 February - book your place now!
