For a Friend



Baroque Motif stamp set has been stamped in the new In Color Purely Pomegranate across the bottom and then trimmed. This set is just one of my favourites from the 2008-09 Idea Book & Catalogue. Going Gray ink was sponged around the edges for a softening effect. Paper piercing and punches including the new designer Label punch accessorise the top of the card.

Scrapping Genuine Articles


Well here goes a scrapbook page. The stamp set Genuine Articles was used to embellish the side of the photos. The background paper is the very new yummy textured In color Blue Bayou. The Rough Texture jumbo wheel was run across the Kraft A4 cardstock with Linen Thread wrapping around it. Big Deal Alphabet was stamped with Versamark on the Kraft cardstock cut out then used for the titles.

Oh, so Lovely





It is really is so lovely. This stamp set is a hostess set that could be yours free. The cardstock is River Rock and ink pad is Purely Pomegranate. Only 2 of the 4 stamps in the set have been used on this card. (yes Happy birthday is stamped straight IRL)

Masking


The white cardstock was masked (with post it notes) before stamping the Canvas background stamp. The flowers from Simply Said were overstamped on the canvas. This was a quick and easy card and fun. Something to add to scrapbook pages also.


Going Gray.....??


Going gray (well perhaps??) was the cardstock used with whisper white and versamark stamped flowers from Simply said and stems from Mixed Bouquet. The Going gray A4 cardstock has been retired also. It is so unusually useful and effective. Also Mixed Bouquet is being retired and it will be missed alot.

Rhinestones are from
KAISER scrapbook.

Bold and Bodacious


These have got to be some of my favourite colours. The flowers are inked in Cool Caribbean and Pumpkin pie. The cardstock is chocolate chip with Au Chocolat designer series paper. The stamp set is Bodacious Bouquet. Pity some of these colours won't last. The Cool caribbean is part of the in colour range and won't appear in the next catalogue. The Au Chocolat double sided paper is available until 31 March also. The swirl is stamped in Whisper white craft ink pad and the pumpkin pie half circle has been stamped with Versamark and the Canvas background.

Artfully Asian

Using the leaf stamp from the Artfully Asian set only, it has been stamped repeatedly on the side panel and coloured in black. Then stamped in white on black and coloured in white, using a circle punch to add to the card. The centre image has been coloured in Pretty in Pink. The photo, well, gives an indication of what it looks like. The canvas background stamp was lightly inked in white and stamped on the black background.

Chocolate!!!



This card uses the designer series double sided paper Au Chocolat from the Summer mini catalogue. The Mixed Bouquet rose was stamped in Basic brown ink onto Very vanilla cardstock and coloured simply with the blender pen before the ink had dried. Stay tuned to see more of this paper on cards and albums...................
