I love this Prima stamp set called Bayou Flowers.  It has a lovely sketchy design and stamps beautifully.  I used the purple inks from Altenew for the different layers and love how they turned out.

As soon as I saw this Hero Arts stamp set in action I knew it needed to go right into my basket!  I tried lots of different colour combos but the one I favoured was this one using a mixture of Hero Arts, Simon Says Stamp and Ranger dye inks (listed below).  The top layer was also restamped using Versamark and clear embossed to add even more dimension.  I love the final look of these gorgeous orchid images.  To colour match the sentiment I used the Wild Orchid dye ink from Ranger and coloured a piece of card before die cutting with the “birthday” from A Tag For All from Avery Elle.

Make it girly HA

Avery Elle … More Party Animals

Popping in with a quick post today to share my card using the fabulous More Party Animals stamp set from Avery Elle.  The previously released balloon animal sets have always been hugely popular so to now have an outline version of these images is great – they’re so fun to colour!!
