Birthday Gears


I've seen lots of amazing grungy cards with the Gears & Textures Bundle, but I'm really more of a clean and simple person, so I challenged myself to make a set of not-grungy cards using this set. First I chose my colours - Old Olive, Pretty Peacock, Clous Cover, Smoky Slate and Earthen-toned Metallic Foil. I needed some masculine cards for my stash and this bundle definitely ticks that box. I stamped the gears and textures across the front of my card, making sure it was wide enough so it didn't hide behind the sentiment banner.

By the way - how great is this sentiment? It's January's Product of the Month (still available...for now!)

Soft Swirled Designs Card Set


Mostly I take inspiration from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues, but this week's cards were actually inspired by Stampin' Up! CEO Sara Douglass. I just loved the card she posted to her Facebook page, so recreated a set of 3, making just a few changes to make them my own. 

The colours I chose for mine are Soft Sea Foam, Pretty in Pink and Highland Heather, with a touch of silver. The Swirled Designs stamp set makes such a fantastic background. And the dies frame the Gallery Blooms flower perfectly. I cut them out in Silver Foil and used a few Rhinestones too. The sentiments are from the fabulous Banner Sayings Bundle.

Have a great day!

Swirled Blooms


Mostly I take inspiration from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues, but this week's cards were actually inspired by Stampin' Up! CEO Sara Douglass. I just loved the card she posted to her Facebook page, so recreated it with just a few changes. 

I did this version in Pretty in Pink. The Swirled Designs stamp set makes such a fantastic background. And the dies frame the Gallery Blooms flower perfectly. I cut them out in Silver Foil and used a few Rhinestones too. The sentiment is from the fabulous Banner Sayings Bundle.

Good Things


Mostly I take inspiration from the Stampin' Up! Catalogues, but this week's cards were actually inspired by Stampin' Up! CEO Sara Douglass. I just loved the card she posted to her Facebook page, so recreated it with just a few changes. 

I did this version in landscape orientation, and chose Highland Heather to go with the flower (which looks to me like a purple salvia?). The Swirled Designs stamp set makes such a fantastic background. And the dies frame the Gallery Blooms flower perfectly. I cut them out in Silver Foil and used a few Rhinestones too.
