Avery Elle … Mom and Dad

Hi there!  I have a card to share today using the gorgeous Mom and Dad stamp set from the latest release from Avery Elle Stamps.  I paired this set with the stunning Heart Frame die which I die cut from gold glitter adhesive paper – LOVE!!  I stamped the sentiment and flower cluster in gold embossing powder and filled it in using Nuvo Jewel Drops to add some subtle colour.  The glossy, dimension looks fab!  For a little background interest I spritzed the card base with some gold splatters <3

Hey – it’s Wednesday and time for a brand new challenge.  I chose to work with a gorgeous, summery hibiscus stamp design from Technique Tuesday for my card this week.  I love the size of the flower in this set, and the font is gorgeous.  I stamped the flower in black and then coloured it with Copics.  The base of the card has been stencilled using the Tiny Dots stencil from Simon Says Stamp – my favourite stencil of ALL TIME!!  I added a touch of gold with some Washi tape, fine gold thread and finished with some little dots of Nuvo drops in Orange Marmalade.

Avery Elle … Beside The Sea

Happy Monday everyone!  It’s particularly happy here in the UK as it’s a Bank Holiday, yay!  Hope you’re enjoying it whatever you’re up to.  My card is perfectly times today as it features a set I designed for the brand new Summer release from Avery Elle Stamps.  Beside The Sea is a wee 3×4″ stamp set featuring a row of cute beach huts and some little extra accessories to create the perfect little seaside scene.  As I drew the set I imagined a row of pastel-coloured beach huts and so here is the finished result!  I stamped the images in Versamark and then heat embossed them in white.  I used Zig Clean Colour Brush markers for the sun-bleached, washed out feel and the new Diagonal Stripes background die sets the scene perfectly!
