Froggy loves you lots!

A couple of cards to catch up today.

Firstly, this one using the new DSP called Affectionately Yours:


I've picked out the colours of Watermelon Wonder, Daffodil Delight and Mint Macaron to stamp and punch some butterflies and I've added a sentiment from Cottage Greetings.


And then this rather cute chap is from a new hostess set called Love you Lots.
I've stamped him on Emerald Envy and cut him out and layered up with some DSP from the Playful Palette stack.  The 'you' is in the same stamp set and I've used hearts from the confetti hearts punch to finish.

Using some Lots of Labels framelits I've layered everything on a notecard cut from Very Vanilla card stock.

Wild About Flowers Trio

We have a Bloomin' Buds weekend away this week and have all chosen a stamp set to make 3 cards with.  We then provide all the card, stamps etc for everyone else to make our 3 cards so will come home with a great selection.

I've chosen the set Wild About Flowers and this is my first card:


It is pretty much a case of a card I saw on Pinterest and I have made it in the past but this time have added 3 coloured circles behind the images to make them pop a little more.

The sentiment is from Cottage Greetings which is a lovely font.

I've used the scoreboard to mark some lines on a second layer of Crumb Cake and added some Linen Thread.

Colours used are:
Old Olive
Tangelo Twist
Hello Honey
Melon Mambo

Cottage Greetings kit

I've finally had a play with one of the kits in the current catalogue and I love it.

I've had a go with the Cottage Greetings kit.  There is a matching stamp set too.
Everything in the kit makes 15 cards, 3 of each of the designs below:


It was really easy and quick to use and make up the cards.  Everything is die cut you just need to stamp the sentiments and use glue and dimensionals to stick everything together.
The pale tan layers are actually thin wood veneer.

The lovely images are already coloured.  As you can see you also get an envelope with snazzy silver liner for each card too.

The enamel dots in this kit are absolutely gorgeous!

The kit is £14.50 to buy and the matching stamp set is £14.00 for clear.  You could use sentiments from any set but I do rather like the font on this set.

The kit is great for a present for a crafter or for you to take away on a holiday to assemble without too much fuss and taking half the house!

More Wild About Flowers

Another thanks to Teri for this idea which again showcases the Wild About Flowers stamp set.


Colours I've used are Pear Pizzazz, Wisteria Wonder and Elegant Eggplant.

The background stamp is the new Watercolour Wash stamp which is a great space filler.

I've cut the image out using one of the new Lots of Labels framelits and layered it on the largest framelit which I've also pricked with the accompanying template.  The flowers are stamped out again, fussy cut and added with 3D pads for a bit of extra dimension.

The sentiment is from the Cottage Greetings set - it's a lovely font isn't it?

Don't forget I have an order going in next week if you 'need' anything.
