Avery Elle – Ellie

13.04.2015 by 6 Comments

Hi there – I’m up on the Avery Elle blog today with a card featuring the cutest little elephant set ever – Ellie!  I love that elephants are so popular right now – my daughter Pippa (7) is completely obsessed with them – I mean OB.SESSED!  I used distress inks to create the blended background and then created the panel using the Finished Frames die set.  Ellie was coloured in with Copics and the balloons were finished off with a good layer of glossy accents.

I picked up the Raindrops stencil from Memory Box to use on my card this week – I love how versatile stencils are!  I placed it over my white card panel and then used white embossing paste over a section of it.  Before it dried I added some aqua coloured fine glitter for some bling!  I stamped and die cut the bear and umbrella from the Simon Says Stamp Abby’s Flowers stamp set.  and coloured them with Copics.  I also die cut the puddle from the co-ordinating die collection from some Stick It and adhered it to the design and added some glitter to that too!  I mounted my panel on to a Kraft card base from Avery Elle and finished with the Happy Spring sentiment!

Avery Elle: Time for Tea

07.04.2015 by 1 Comment

Hello there.  Today I have a card and gift combo perfect for any occasion when you want to get together with friends for a nice cuppa and a chat!  I used a rustic cream card for this project and created a kind of “ditsy” flower design on it using one of the small detail stamps from the Tea Time stamp set.  I created a card base and also a gift bag topper using the Treat Topper fabulous die.  The bow and tag sentiment are from Home Made

I hope you all had a fabulous Easter weekend and are enjoying some yummy Easter treats!
