Avery Elle: Balloon Giraffe

Hello and welcome to another week!  Todays Avery Elle card features another of their fabulous ballon animal stamp sets – the Giraffe!  This goes hand in hand with their other sets Party Bunny and Party Animal! I stamped the balloon Giraffe in Versamark onto black card and heat embossed it in clear powder.  You can just about make out the detail but black is so hard to photograph!!!  I wanted this card to be for my little nephew who just turned 6 so to keep it simple and a bit more “boyish” I added the frame detail using the Scalloped Frame die and die cut some stars from the Finished Frames set.  I also cut the Simply Said: Amazing die from black and used the companion stamp set to finish off the sentiment.

Avery Elle: Simply Said: AMAZING

Hello – it’s Monday so I’m once again over on the Avery Elle blog and today I’m featuring the Simply Said: AMAZING stamps and die.  Remember that card I made the other day with the Seal-abrate stamp set?  I created a water coloured panel and then cut the middle out to create a frame.  Well, I used that peice of card and cut the Amazing from it for this card!

Avery Elle: Peonies

Hey there – I’m up on the Avery Elle blog today sharing a card using the gorgeous Peonies stamp set (designed by the equally gorgeous Heather Campbell).  I did a fair bit of masking on this card to create my bunch of peonies in the corner of my water colour card panel.  I embossed each image one at a time with white embossing powder then used Kuretake Gansai paints to colour the flowers.  The sentiment is from the Cake and Candles set and I did a bit of snipping so that I could break it up instead of having it on one line.
