Nested Friends Anniversary Card – #FMS590

The Nested Friends stamp set didn’t have my heart at first glance. However, I liked the variety of sentiments in the set and ended up ordering it. I can tell you, I have got my money’s worth out of this set, especially with this bird, using it so many times.

I created a background for my card with Versamark ink which was heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. Then I blended Misty Moonlight ink around the edges. Adding this to a card base which I applied the same technique of blending created depth for this tone on tone background.

My card was been inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches. To form the strips I used the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper. This is a great sketch to use up those scrap pieces of patterned paper or cardstock I know you have lying around.

This pack of 12″ x 12″ papers is a bumper pack with 48 sheets in it. Usually selling for $53, during our June Designer Series Paper sale you can get it for $45.05.

The bird was stamped in Daffodil Delight and I added some detail with Watercolor Pencils. I used Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Balmy Blue and Early Espresso.

The berries and leaves were die cut from Basic White Cardstock and coloured with Stampin’ Blends. Some extra shading was added with an Old Olive Watercolor Pencil. The smaller Soft Sea Foam die cut leaves were also individually highlighted the same way.

A small sentiment was added to flow in with the arrangement of sprigs whilst not detracting from the pretty paper.

Shabby Chic Birthday Card

For the start to our working week I’ve got a bit of a shabby chic birthday card to share with you inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.

The floral image was fussy cut from the Perfectly Penciled Designer Series Paper. This is a Black and White monochromatic pack of 12″ x 12″ paper which gives you loads of options. I’ve even used a little strip of it on the label behind the flowers.

The image was coloured in Watercolour Pencils. The colours I used are listed below.

  • Daffodil Delight
  • Calypso Coral
  • Granny Apple Green
  • Garden Green
  • Coastal Cabana

To create the distressed look on the layers, I ran the edge of my paper snips right along the edges. This card has got lots of texture and it’s fully loaded with Stampin’ Dimensionals for some fabulous depth.

If you want to know more details, please get in touch with me. Want to order the products to make this card? Full list of supplies are at the bottom of this post. Orders can be placed online or by giving me a call. I’d love to help you out.

Perched in a Tree Day 27 – 30 Day Christmas Cardmaking Challenge

When I saw this colour combo for a Christmas card, my first thought was, ‘what on earth’? Yet again, the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge has me thinking outside the box and I’m really pleased with my final creation which uses my favourite Perched in a Tree bundle.

I coloured the bird with a combination of Stampin’ Blends and Watercolour Pencils as the pencils didn’t have a Petal Pink. This combination colouring came out really well and love how the bird turned out.

The sentiment was heat embossed in Gold and then I used the Aspen Dies to cut out the leaf. Those cute Gold Holly Leaves are discounted on our Last Chance list and you can get them for $5.30 (originally $13.25) while supplies last – bargain!

The Perched in a Tree bundle will carryover however products will be sold individually. You can currently get it at a bundle price which will save you 10%.

Sketchtember Challenge – Day 27 Sweetest Cherries

Hello and welcome to Day 27 of my Sketchtember Challenge. I’m creating with the Sweetest Cherries bundle which includes a stamp set and coordinating punch. The sentiments in this stamp set are bold and in a more handwritten style font which make for creating fun projects.

I created a vertical card which is not my norm as I felt the sketch was more to this style. So cut your Cardstock at 10.5 cm and score at 14.8 cm. The Gingham Cottage DSP is so versatile and I’ve been finding many uses for it with my projects of late.

The cherries were stamped in Real Red ink and then I added some extra shading with Real Red, Cherry Cobbler and Melon Mambo Watercolour Pencils. The leaves were punched from Mint Macaron Cardstockwhich I coloured with Old Olive and Coastal Cabana Watercolour Pencils to add shading and depth.

I’ve been using my Watercolour Pencils more and just love how easy it is to create shading with this colouring tool. They are at a low price point and you can get 2 assortments. I’ve got them in a cup style container right on my desk so I can easily access them any time which makes me use it even more.
