Smoky Pacific Stars...

Hi there!


I'm back with another quick post today - and another of my cards from my Bright & Beautiful class I held recently. For this one I wanted to make a non-Christmassy card with this set, to show how versatile it is...

I made this into a fun-fold card, with a combination of lots of different stars using different colours and techniques. Here's a pic of it open...

Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Bright & Beautiful, Tag Talk
Ink: Pacific Point, Smoky Slate, Old Olive
Paper: Pacific Point, Smoky Slate, Old Olive, Naturals White, Whisper White, Silver foil
Accessories: Silver baker's twine
Tools: Stars framelits, Lucky stars embossing folder, Label bracket punch

Flower Patch Fusion...

Hi there!

My hubby and I are on holiday at the moment, having a lovely relaxing time (I brought some crafty goodies with me to play with of course!), but I've made a few things to share with you while we're away... When I saw the current Fusion I knew I had to play along - I love both the sketch and the inspiration photo...

I was preparing for my Flower Patch class when I made this one...

I had seen the Flower Patch set used to make a sunflower somewhere else and I wanted to try it for myself, so I stamped the second-largest flower once with Crushed Curry and once with Daffodil Delight then cut out with the matching die-cut. The centre was stamped with Chocolate Chip ink on matching card then die-cutting with the matching framelit and the stem were done in the same way using Old Olive. I created a stamped background on Crushed Curry card with one of the small flowers in this set using Whisper White ink. The sentiment is from the Tag Talk set and punched with the label bracket punch.

Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Flower Patch, Tag Talk
Ink: Strawberry Slush, Crushed Curry,Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White
Paper: Tangelo Twist dsp, Very Vanilla, Naturals Ivory, Crushed Curry, Strawberry Slush, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Venetian Lace Trim
Tools: Flower Fair Framelits, Label Bracket Punch
