Hello there daisy

I had some 'bits' left over from previous projects, I cut up some more, like the layers behind the main image and the embossed background, put them all together and viola...

The greeting is from Happy Day stamp set, new in the 2013/2014 annual catalogue.  I stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with white embossing powder on parchment.  I then coloured the back of the parchment with my marker pen so it all coordinates nicely.  The daisy is from best of June stamp set and the little butterfly from the now retired Kindness Matters set.

Colours used are Whisper White and River Rock - now retired.  As you probably already know, ten new colours have been introduced in the new catalogue (and ten retired), well my stash arrived today so look out for my next project which will be using the yummy new colours.  Thanks for visiting x

Upsy Daisy best of June

A quick post today.  I had a play with one of the stamps from June's 'best of' sets and came up with this.  Hope you like it.  I used Primrose Petals, Midnight Muse and Very Vanilla. 

Pop by tomorrow for another card using the single daisy stamp in the same set ;)

Secret Garden and Lattice Bigz

I recently bought the Lattice Bigz die and couldn't quite decide on a card design until I saw a tutorial for this spring card. I've made spring cards before but have never pleased with them because they always flopped one way or another.  This fold is different, check it out here on Dawn's blog (thank you Dawn).  See how nicely it stands? 

I had to change the measurements for my card in order to get the right size for the die to fit nicely.  We will be making this card, or one very similar, in class this month. Actually this was my practice card, made using retired card stock, but as it turned out pretty good I thought I'd share it.  Hope you like it. Thank you for stopping by x
