One last Fling!

I've been having one last fling with Bodacious Bouquet and Purely Pomegranate at this month's Stamp-a-stacks. I couldn't resist including the lovely Paisley background in some of these too. I'll be selling off my retired stamps after April 1st, but I just don't think I can bear to part with that one! ....that's a first for me!

I actually have some spots free this Tuesday night (17th), if you'd like to come and make these cards, plus 4 other more masculine designs. Email me to book in!
Can anyone spot the 2 tricks I have used with the Square Scallop punch on these cards?

Don't forget that you can purchase Bodacious Bouquet as part of the Bushfire Appeal until the end of March. I'm giving 20% off all 10 sets, so this one comes down to $47.16, with 50% of the proceeds going to the Appeal.

  1. I loooooooooove pomegranate and olive together! I also love your use of the bodacious flowers for the cards. Too bad I can't join the SAS. :( I think you've used part of a square scallop to edge your photo corner and you've also made a little label by cutting off the rest of the square and leaving two scallops. :D

  2. I also love pomegranate. I love the boldness of these cards. Just beautiful. I also think you've used a half square scallop punch to edge your photo corner and also used it to give a fancy edge on your label.

  3. Wow, I love these designs. I purchased this stamp set as part of the bushfire appeal and have used it a couple of times, but will be creating more with all your ideas.
    I have only discovered one spot with the punch as part of the photo corner but don't know where the other one is....looks like Pam and Kylie found it.

  5. Striking Cards Marelle....as usual.... Great use of the SSP on the 'celebrate' and accenting the corner behind the photo corner!!! Subtle but v v effective.
