Floral Wings take two

A different version of yesterday's card - in two colour ways.  So the first one uses 2015-2017 In Colors Mint Macaron, Delightful Dijon and Cucumber Crush.  I know, it's a very peculiar way to spell macaroon, for that is what many call it. The spelling starts umpteen discussions about the correct pronounciation - macaron / macaroon.  Maybe it was done on purpose to keep people talking about Stampin' Up!. I can't think of a better subject. Can you? 

Anyway, regardless of spelling and pronounciation, it's a fab colour. A new favourite I think.  Did you guess I used the stripes mask for the background?  I stenciled on Very Vanilla card and the words are from Crazy About You stamp set, which can be purchased separately or as a bundle with the Hello You dies. I have given details of bundles below...

And here we have Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzaz.  Very pretty. I meant for the background stripes, on Whisper White card, to be much paler. For the antenna I simply cut very thin strips of card and curved them a little before attaching.

Lotus Blossom

Hello crafters. This post has been sitting in draft for several weeks, I forgot all about it!  It's one of the projects from my recent all day craft event.

Everyone loves this beautiful three-step sale-a-bration lotus blossom stamp set.  You have until the end of March to get yours for FREE when you place a £45 order.  A link to my 24 hour online shop is on the right or you can contact me directly to place your order.

The base cards are very vanilla and pacific point.  The blossom is stamped directly on to a piece of Typeset DSP, layered on black card then on some silver fancy foil designer vellum.  I made the candy dots by covering a piece of pacific point card with Crystal Effects and when it was thoroughly dry (I left it overnight) I punched out 1/4" circles, viola!

I used one of the blossom stamps and dots from Best Day Ever (another SAB stamp set) to create the stamped background.  The greeting is from Crazy About You stamp set, available in the spring-summer catalogue 

Thank you for stopping by x
