Florals

 Hi everyone.  It's been a few weeks since I've been here, hope you are all doing well!

For my card today, it was kind of a bonus at putting it together, as most of this was already coloured and die cut, just sitting in my parts basket.  I was going through it looking to see what I could put together, and came across this coloured image which was done over a year ago.  I also came across the die cut frame in purple, which seem to fit perfectly with my image.



The floral image is from Justrite, and the die cuts are from Spellbinders, the small die of the month for January/21.

After assembled, I added some purple pears, and some flitter to the flowers.

Well, it's a hot day here in SW Ontario today (feels like 95F) hence I stayed indoors and did some much needed purging.  Still more to do, but I did put a dent into it.

Thank you for stopping by today, see you back here real soon! Enjoy your day!

Find Peace and Comfort

 Hi friends, hope everyone is doing well.  I have another sympathy card to share with you today.

Here, I'm using a Penny Black stamp called Entranced.



I started with some canson watercolour paper, placed the stamp in my misti and added distress oxide inks using daubers, spritzed and stamped.  I repeated until I was happy with the results.

I cut a rectangle out of a scrap piece of lightweight cardstock, then placed it over my image - centered- and sponged some distress oxide inks to create the centered coloured piece.  Sentiment is also from Penny Black, this was stamped using black versafine.

I then used my Trinity embossed rectangle die to cut this out.  I really like how it finishes the edges.

Well that's it for me folks.  Have a fantastic day! See you back here real soon.

Floral frame x 2

 Hello everyone! 

I am sharing a couple of more sympathy cards in which I made for my card order.  I have a few more sympathy cards to share after this post, I hope you won't be bored with them.

Both cards today are using products from The Greetery - Print Shop: Floral Frame Stamp & Stencil set.

I used distress oxide inks for both.  Once all the stenciling was completed, I used the matching die set (removed out part, just used center die) to cut the center away.



I then sponged a coordinating colour in the center , then stamped my sentiment. Sentiments are from Penny Black  - Sympathy Sentiments.


I added some SSS Unicorn Dust glitter on the flowers  and a few pearls on the pink card.

I find I really gravitate to stencils lately, probably because they make for fast card making, and now a days with all the layers, the florals look so real.

I have so many new stamps and stencils that haven't been touched, mainly because I haven't had time. I'm kind of getting back into stamping again, so hopefully I'll get to use them soon.

Thanks again for stopping by.  Hope you have a fabulous day my friends!
