Avery Elle, Get Well

Hey, I’m here with a card featuring the gorgeous Get Well set from Avery Elle. I stamped the bouquet in Versamark and then heat embossed it in white and added some subtle colour using distress markers as watercolours – I love the softness they give. I stamped the sentiment onto some vellum using dove grey stazon and then placed it over the top of the image. To finish I added a panel of Daisy cardstock cut with a scalloped border using Dotted Borders dies and some yellow twine.

Thanks for stopping by xxx

Avery Elle March Release Blog Hop

Hi there, I’m delighted to be sharing a card for the brand new release from Avery Elle. This release literally has something for everyone and today I’m featuring a cute little set called Humble Pie. I stamped three of the pies in black and coloured them with Copics before smothering them in glossy accents. While they were drying I created a 4-bar card base in white and cut a panel of Lemon Grass card stock which I placed on the front of the card. The yellow gingham paper is from the Everyday patterned paper pad and I’ve used a Dotted Border die to cut a scalloped border from some Daisy cardstock. I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop and I can’t wait to see all of the creations with these amazing new products.

Simon Says … Anything Goes

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the Add A Little Texture Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

ANYTHING GOES

We are showcasing LAWN FAWN PRODUCTS this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

For my card I immediately grabbed the Into The Woods set – I love the little critters in this set! I created a 4-bar sized card base and added a few little splatters of gold Heidi Swapp shimmer. I then simply added a couple of strips of patterned paper from the Let’s Polka paper pad and stamped and die cut the chipmunk (I think!!), tree trunk and speech bubble and assembled them together on my card!
