This month,  I have made another simple card with tiny flowers in blue and yellow tones.  I created the  stamped background using the sentiment stamps with white embossing powder,  then stamped onto vellum and added this over the top.  I've used the wild rose flowers once again and even though this is a simple card, it's taken me twice as long to create! Just added a few gems to complete.

This month,  I have made a card in support of Ukraine in blue and yellow colours. I've kept it very simple as I wanted the blue and yellow background to show through, then I've added the frame (which I die cut 3 times and stuck together) and kept the flowers black and white. I've used the wild rose flowers, but need to get the new rustic sunflower stamps as these would have been perfect! A few gems and twine to complete!

This month,  I challenged myself to not use any pink and make a simple flat card.  I tried my best - I stamped the flowers  blue and black inks, but then had to add some texture and a little dimension by adding beads to the flower centres and some twine! Quite a different card for me!

To start the year,  I've made a simple card and gone back to my pink and yellow colours! I've used the Flowering Dogwood flowers and some vines - such a useful little die that I do use lots! I started by making a simple background with watercolour inks, added a piece of vellum around the centre, then layered my flowers around the beautiful ornate die cut tag.  Added some centres to the flowers to complete!

Today the Alumni team are sharing creations made with the Black Friday release from Heartfelt Creations - The Classic Framed Dies Collection.  The die set that I have used is the Fancy Classic Rectangles which I die cut mainly in Kraft card with a little white and gold.  I started by stamping the sentiment and then built up my card using the die frames I wanted to use, added some ink around the paper edges and then added my dogwood flowers and leaves.  Just a few beads added to the flower centres and curled paper strands to complete.  This card is a little larger than my usual size, so I have photographed it lay flat.

This month, my card is quite simple using the Flowering Dogwood flowers and leaves.  I started with a ready layered background from the paper collection, then stamped a lovely sentiment and framed it in one of my favourite decorative dies. No twine, pearls or embellishments this month, just the beads to the flower centres!
