Many Thanks Bumble Bee

Isn't this bee cute?  It's from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set.  And did you notice the embossed background?  I used the new Hexagons Dynamic folder.  Our dynamic folders create deep, dimensional embossed impressions.  Both sides are awesome.  Unfortunately the photo doesn't do this card justice.

I used the Stitched Framelits dies for the layering squares.  The DSP is from the Cupcakes and Carousels stack, in the spring/summer catalogue. I finished off with a bow tied on to a mini paper clip.

Thanks for stopping by x

Dragonfly Thank You

This is the first time I have used vellum/parchment as a base card.  It is of course Stampin' Up's Vellum Cardstock.  I'm not sure if it would work on it's own, I will have to try, but with the insert it's definitely awesome. The card is a regular UK A6 size and the insert is 3" wide Thick Whisper White card stock.

I heat embossed, in white, the dotty stamp from Dragonfly Dreams on the card and tag front and on the insert I stamped the dots in Perfect Plum, Marina Mist and So Saffron.  For the dragonfly I used the smaller of the two intricate dies from the set and the greeting is from Rose Wonder. 

We made this card and tag at one of my recent classes but with different greetings.  I chose Thank you because I make A LOT of thank you cards.  I added clear Wink of Stella on the dragonfly and finished off with a few sequins and rhinestones - both really lovely in real life but not captured in the photos.

Thank you

And here's a hexagon box made with the new Window Box Thinlits dies.  This is the first box I have made with this set and I didn't do a very good job of it but thought I'd share anyway...

Delicate details aperture card

Happy New Year crafters.  I hope you had an awesome Christmas and here's to an awesome 2017!

The spring/summer catalogue and sale-a-bration is just around the corner, starting 4th January! Yay!

I have a little sneak peek for you today, the Delicate Details lacy borders stamp set, an item that you can get for FREE during sale-a-bration.  As in previous years, you can choose a free sale-a-bration item for every £45 spend...

So back to the card, I stamped the background on to Very Vanilla card using two of the lace borders in Pink Pirouette and So Saffron. I then partially cut the aperture with the largest scalloped die from the Layering Squares Framelits. The butterfly (from Butterfly Basics - my go to stamp set) was stamped in Flirty Flamingo.  I adhered a piece of Very Vanilla to the back of the aperture and stamped the greeting (from Birthday Blooms) and another butterfly.

I stamped the same lacy background inside the card before adhering another piece of Very Vanilla card, finishing off the inside with another butterfly.  And of course, I always stamp the envelope to coordinate..
