slowly getting there

still making christmas cards, slowly getting to my target, this one is a mixture of lawn fawn and mama elephant goodies, and I adore my colour mix... all lawn fawn inks

peekaboo... would you have guessed it?

Another day, another lavender bag, I've used some multi medium matt to hold down some of the smaller segments, something I haven't tried before. The cat was partially die cut so that I could have enough felt so he was peeking in from the bottom corner.

out of this world pop up

Jane's birthday always calls for a space card and this year's card is extra special and is my very first pop up box card - I've even got floating objects using little bits of acetate...

C He M(n) I S .... you'd think you'd be able to spell chemistry with a periodic table

It's coming up to graduation and I always make my students cards... I've used all sorts of sets from lawn fawn and mama elephant for this one

lavender inside

So I've been sewing with these really cute dies from mama elephant - I think they are supposed to decorate favour bags but I bought them to make lavender bags. The felt is from corrine lapierre and is a lovely wool viscose mix felt.

hello flowers

I'm still playing with my fab flowers stamps from lawn fawn and have even managed to make a card with nuvo drops without sticking my finger in the wet dots.

mostly lawn fawn, the patterned paper is from studio calico and the edge die from mama elephant.

pretty

channelling my inner pretty with the lawn fawn fab flowers set again and bringing in the happy happy happy for the sentiment - simple but a satisfying little cluster.

pretty in pink

That's a lot of pink for me, but when you nee a birthday card for your mum sometimes pink is the way to go.

I used the new Lawn Fawn layering stamps Fab Flowers and Happy Happy Happy stamp set along with some Mama Elephant dies to perfect my girly masterpiece. Pretty Pink Posh sequins finish it off.

haven't I seen that before?

It's been a couple of weeks since I posted a card because I've been busy sewing and mending, but I liked the previous card so much I tried to emulate it here in other colours, I used the MFT inks from cube set 16 (I love ink cubes so much, so many colours in such a little space) Persimmon, Spearmint, and Lemon Chiffon.

The dies are again Hero Arts with a die from Mama Elephant. This time I didn't have the perfect colour and so I coloured some silver glitter with a comic marker.

pretty colours

I love these colours - and I was quite impressed with my attempt at an ombre ink... go me!

The stamps are all hero arts from their stamp and cut range, the die cut is Mama Elephant and the finishing touch is the glitter card which came from Tiger.

make it a good one

this is my 900th post! so I'm please I like this card

boom boom hearts

These Mama Elephant ninja's were just too cute, and this explosion of hearts just sets him off.

if I could do it all again

The whole point of this card was to try colouring with my prismacolors on Kraft, but there are a million things I would have done differently if I could do it al again

Stamps: Mama Elephant, My Favourite Things

be very very quiet

I couldn't resist these ninja cuties from Mama Elephant, and the splatter background was such a fun way to set it off.

The little sequin confetti is from Pretty Pink Posh

purrfect

This year's valentine's uses this cutie from Mama Elephant coloured in comics - it's kind of like me and my husband because he is more than a foot taller than I.

for daddy

I love when a paper inspires you to make something completely random... like a father's day card in february

hero arts stamps, mama elephant die and pretty pink posh confetti

paper is DCWV and the inks are momento

sing it like sinatra

doing my best to colour the oh so cute mama elephant up in the air stamp set to match this DCWV paper

it's a quickutz die

old quickutz dies are still some of the best alphabet dies around

off centre

I love the colours on this card, but it just isn't quite off centre enough

glitter stars

The left over space bears have been made into tiny little gift card - the space background is more interesting...

I used some perfect pearls and smoosed it to make a nebula and then stickles were smooshed to make a stream of stars behind my cute little bear
