You can’t have too many…

Shoes and bags!  Well, not if they all looked like these anyway!  I used the Stepping Out and Basic Banners stamp sets from Clearly Besotted and inked them is varying shades of aqua (the birthday girl’s favourite colour). I also broke out my new Modern Borders set from Mama Elephant – been after this set for a while so when I saw it come back in stock, in my basket it went!!

The lighting just wasn’t right when I tried to photograph this card so apologies if it looks a wee bit bleached!  Can you see the shimmer on the shoes?  I used a Zig Wink of Stella clear brush pen – lush!

CASE study challenge – more Maile!

Hi there, just here to share a card inspired by this week’s Case Study challenge – another stunning card from Maile Belles.  I was really taken with the colours and the little extra embellishments she used – instead of the pin and die cut word I used a couple of wee sequins and a die cut star border.  I hope I haven’t messed with her design too much!?

Here’s Maile’s card:

And here’s my take:

case study 141 (1)

 

I’m off for a nice long soak in the bath with a wee glass of wine and my ipod!  We’re going to friends for dinner this evening so need to get a wriggle on or I won’t be ready!!

Enjoy your weekend all!

Hugs

Getting a head start!

On Teacher Thank You cards that is!  Each year I have to make a small mountain of these cards (what with all the teaching assistants etc now) so I thought I’d start planning ahead!  Clearly Besotted released a fantastic set last month called “Teacher’s Pet” which is JUST PERFECT for this occasion and with all the options in this set, no two cards need look the same!!  Here’s a couple I have managed to rustle up so far.

Now, just another 10 or so to go!
