Clearly Besotted May Release teaser time!

07.05.2014 by Caryn Davies 16 Comments

Hello! Today is the (slightly delayed) start of the May release sneaky peaks over at Clearly Besotted Stamps. And although we may have made you wait a few days longer this month – I think you’re going to agree that it’s worth the wait!

Today I’m featuring my personal favourite of this month’s sets – Love Blossoms. I love the oriental feel of this design and the three-step options for the blossoms too. I’ve got two cards which are a variation of each other really.

I’ve used a few other CBS sets here too (see the diagonal stripes peeking out??).

You can see more stunning designs from my gorgeous teamies (link over on Steph’s blog) and the wonderful Mayuri who is guesting along with us this month – yay!!

Avery Elle – Storybook

06.05.2014 by Caryn Davies 2 Comments

I am proud to be showcasing my favourite set from the current release over at Avery Elle – Storybook. It was designed by the gorgeous and very sweet Heather Campbell and features the cutest little critters ever! I have three cards to share today so I’ll get on with it shall I?

I know this set has been extremely popular since it was released and I am not at all surprised. Heather has created such a special set and I am thrilled everyone loves it as much as I do!

Well, I better get myself off to bed – can’t handle these late nights any more (must be getting old!!).

Designing for Taylored Expressions – Bon Voyage!

29.04.2014 by Caryn Davies 2 Comments

Well – here I am still playing catch up!! My first projects as a blog design team member at Taylored Expressions was up over on their blog last week and I am so happy to now be sharing them here. I’ve been busy creating some projects with the Bon Voyage stamp set and a few of the amazing TE dies and here’s what I came up with.

I’m starting with a card I made for my Dad’s birthday. He’s working away from home at the moment in a ship builders firm and so this sentiment and image were the perfect combination for his card.

My next project uses another image from the Bon Voyage set but this time I used it to create a little treat packaging idea.

And last but not least I created this card as a request from my son Daniel who needed a card in a hurry for his friend (who happens to be a keen sailor)! How appropriate that I still had this set out on my desk! Oh, and I can’t take credit for the knot – Daniel did that!!

I hope you get a chance to pop over to the Taylored Expressions blog and have a look at all the amazing stamps and dies they have – you’ll be spoilt for choice!
