Avery Elle – Canopy

08.03.2016 by Leave a Comment

Today I’ve been playing with the gorgeous Canopy stamp set from Avery Elle – I have had so much fun with this stamp – it’s such a dream to colour.  This time I thought I’d place it with the vines growing up rather than hanging down – it just goes to show what a versatile set this is.  I used Zig Clean Colour markers again (becoming addicted to these) and embossed the image in white.  The sentiment is from the Best Ever stamp set – isn’t it so USEFUL??!

Hope you remember to pop by to the Avery Elle Blog where there’s more inspiration from the design team every day.

My Favourite Things is one of my favourite stamp companies – they have such fantastic designs and everything just speaks to my style of cardmaking – clean lines, amazing dies etc.  I am always excited to play with their products and have used three of my favourite products on my card today – the flamingo dies, the leafy greenery dies and the stitched vertical cover up die.  To give it some fun texture I cut the foliage from some awesome green glitter cardstock (although I’d like to make it again and use felt just for a different look)!  It’s really sparkly in real life but as usual the camera just doesn’t do it justice!!

So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Simon Says Stamp March 2016 Card Kit

March-2016-Card-Kit-600-draft1

I’ve getting rather busy with the AMAZING March 2016 card kit from Simon Says Stamp.  I am IN LOVE with this kit and cannot believe how much value is packed into it!  Having the co-ordinating dies to go with the stamp set is SO fabulous!  I’ve made a total of 4 cards so far using the kit and only a few extra dies from my Simon Says Stamp collection.  Hope you like them!!  I thought the best place to start was to create a bunch of Peeps and then just go from there!  They are white heat embossed and then coloured with Zig Clean Colour Markers before getting a liberal coating of Distress Rock Candy Glitter!
