Todays cards is perfect for teen girls. I used Shop til you drop shoe stamps (Docrafts) and silver embossed them onto the black cardstock. I fussy cut a shoe from bazzil bling cardstock, and added some silver trim and ribbon and it was done! A couple of days off now, so will be busy in the card room, and thinking about new ideas for xmas cards! Til tomorrow……
When I stamp – I stamp! I have used quite a few different stamp sets on this card. First I stamped the script -( Stamp it) onto ivory confetti stampin up cardstock, and over stamped it with a stamp from Oxford Impressions – Nature collection. The coloured image is a stampin up stamp from the Every Moment set, and the tag is a stamp from Oxford Impressions Nature set. I stamped the main image onto stampin up watercolour card and coloured using my ink pads and an aquapainter – my favourite way of colouring.The cardstock is all stampin up . Til tomorrow…..Â
Todays card uses a new paper – Butterfly Garden by Pink Paisley. I only made a couple of cards with this paper because I used the rest to make Birthday books which i will get Nathan to photograph this weekend, and hopefully be able to show you all next week.As well as the pink paisley paper IÂ used a Prima flower, and websters pages lace, and used my versamark pen on the ladies dress, and brushed it with perfect pearls powder – my newest purchase – and I’m loving the effect! Til tomorrow….
Oops! I have just discovered that all that published of last nights post was the title! Not sure what happened, so here goes again! This is the last card I have in my file using Prima madeline papers. On this one I just fussy cut a few flowers from the paper and mounted them on the bottom of the card and added a lace bow. This paper has been great to work with, and I certainly got my moneys worth out of it! Til tomorrow….
This afternoon while checking my files I found this card which I haven’t posted yet, but actually did for a Village lesson a few months ago.I used Stampin Up cardstock ( retired colours) and Here for you stamp, cuttlebug embossing folder, string and the Bird stamp is in the Nature set by Oxford Impressions. Speaking of which, my 2 new stamp sets from oxford impressions arrived today, so I’m off to mount them so I can have a play! Til tomorrow….
These are my kind of cards! The paper is gorgeous to work with – Prima Botanical collection, and perfect for backgrounds on cards like these. I used my cricut and the Serenade cartridge to cut the birds and cages in a couple of different sizes, then sponged the cages with Tim Holtz tea dye ink, and stamped the birds with a swirly stamp in versamark ink and brushed on some perfect pearls powder which brought up the swirls a treat! Also used were asorted flowers,leaf punches,lace and ribbon. Great fun! Til tomorrow…..
Tonights card is a little bit different from the more recent posts. I used Docrafts Pampered Pets paper – they also have cats in this pack, lace and stampin up crumbcake cardstock. After a few busy days at work I’m lookoing forward to the next 2 days at home and a bit of cardmaking to unwind! Til tomorrow….

I’m always trying to come up with new ideas for dress cards, as they are very popular for teenage girls. For these ones I hand cut the dresses from October Afternoon “thrift shop”paper and used the same collection on the backgrounds. the rest of the cards were made up with assorted buttons,ribbon,flowers and lace. The tags on two of the cards are Melissa Frances mini flashcards. I have finished my birthday book, just waiting for a template for the actual pages, and then I’ll be in business! Til tomorrow…..
