While we are on stamped cards, I have a couple more to show over the next couple of days . These two were made with Stampin Up fabulous Florets stamp set. I stamped the greenery straight onto my cardstock, and stamped the poppies separately on scrap cardstock, then coloured them with my Kaiserfusion markers, and fussy cut them out. kept these ones very simple – just added a punched butterfly, ribbon bow and some liquid pearls. A lazy day today, with just some experimenting with embossing happening in the craft room this afternoon. Til tomorrow….

Stampin Up Sweet Briar rose
In between playing with paper I like to do a bit of stamping and colouring.The stamp I used on these cards is from stampin Up – Sweet Briar rose. I coloured it with Prisma colour pencils, and kept the rest of the cards white. I used a few different dies – spellbinders Opulent ovals,magnolia flourish and Memory box Kaliadescope butterfly. Added a few white pearls to the butterflies, and layered it all on a piece of cardstock embossed with cuttlebug swiss dots folder.Til tomorrow…
