This week ...

Quite a lot on this week so there have been lots of quick cards!

This first one took a little longer though and I made whilst it is nice and sunny.  This sunflower uses the Eastern Palace suite and is based on the flower by Patty Bennett (https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/499336677424542004/).

This just shows how versatile these dies are too.

Val did this super project with us at Bloomin' Buds downline this week:

It's a great little treat pouch with a packet of seeds in.  This one is in the new colour of Fresh Fig - the new daisy punch is rather nice too!

Then Christmas card of the week made an appearance!

And this is the card I made for swaps at our meeting this week.  Again, inspired by Pinterest and using the daisy punch again.

All in blue

Another little catch up - sorry!  Much cutting out for next weeks High Tide stamping day.

This weeks Christmas card uses the Flurry of Wishes stamp set with a hint of Pacific Point:

I also had a party this week and did some paper piecing and masking which went down well.  This is one of my samples:

This sample is in Dapper Denim.  I need to take the picture off my phone which I will come back and share as I took a snap of all 9 ladies cards and they looked great!

It went down well as the techniques were new to some of them.

The lady is from the Beautiful You stamp set and the background is from Mediterranean Moments.

Another catch up

Oh dear, because I haven't kept up with Facebook you didn't get to see last weeks Christmas card!

This card uses the Detailed Santa Thinlits which are still available to buy and ideal for a quick but very effective card.

Then there is another Beautiful You stamp in Flirty Flamingo which I have paper-pieced:

Followed by another egg box.  I have kept this one natural again (I will colour the next one) and added the Hey Chick stamps as promised.  This was the hostess gift for the party I did last week.

Beautiful You

This is a card I've CASE'd from Pinterest which is credited to www.scrapinium.blogspot.com.
I loved the subtle colouring on it.  The base colours are Very Vanilla and Sahara Sand, the other products used are:

Falling in Love Designer Series Paper
Gold Foil Sheets
So Detailed Thinlits
Stitched Shapes Framelits
Beautiful You stamp set
Special Reason stamp set
Classic Label Punch
Metallic Ribbon (SAB item)
Rhinestone Basic Jewels
Black Memento ink
Sahara Sand Ink

Brighter days to come

Another quick and simple card using the Beautiful You set again.

I've used a snippet of Blooms and Bliss to paper piece the umbrella and mirrored the Mint Macaron in the stamp over the image and the Island Indigo for the card base.

I've also sneaked in the Stitched Framelits which will be back again sometime!

Beautiful You

New products are coming thick and fast now!

The stamps on this card are from a gorgeous new stamp set called Beautiful You.
The set contains several ladies, a couple of arty squiggles and some lovely words.

I've stamped these on a 'Lots of Labels' framelit which is layered on some Blooms and Bliss DSP from the Annual Catalogue.  I have sneaked in a bit of ribbon from the Winter Catalogue too as it went so well with the Rich Razzleberry background.
