Fruit Basket with Narrow Notecards

Hi there,
Super quick post today for a mini card :-) I used the super adorable Narrow Notecards for this make and teamed it with some pears from the Fruit Basket stamps, see...

 This design was actually one that was a make and take tag from On Stage last November (*-*)

 I finally completed it a few weeks ago when I decided to tackle some of the half finished projects in my "Basket of Shame" ;-)

Please tell me I'm not the only on with half finished projects? Please ;-)

OK, thanks so much for looking today, I'll be back tomorrow with another Inspire. Create challenge, I do hope you'll join me here?

Heart Happiness meets Brusho in Navy and Gold

Hello and welcome to another challenge with Inspire. Create. and this week (#14) it's a sketch to work from! My favourite, in fact I actually made two cards for this challenge, (I'll share the other one here tomorrow ;-)) So, let's start with the sketch...

 Hopefully you can see the sketch in my card but I have taken it as an interpretation rather than too literally ;-)

 I started with watercolour paper and brusho adding water, powder, drying, then repeating with adding more water and powder then drying again until I was happy with the end result. Then when it was completely dry I used an embossing buddy (very important) before I stamped and heat embossed with the mini hearts from Heart Happiness.

 I layered three crumb cake die cut "love" before adding a gold foil one to the top, I think it looks almost molten... Underpinning with gold thread to tie in the gold.

 I tore the crumb cake card and embossed it with the scattered hearts folder (I just realised this folder is retired, so sorry) you could try the sequin or softly falling folder instead, sponge with matching ink and adhere so the blue inked area peeks out from behind.
TIP: Run the blue watercoloured pieces through a navy ink pad (or use a marker) before adhering so the white edges don't show.

So, I do hope you enjoyed today's card? I know the rest of the DT will have a whole heap of inspiration for you and there's also a surprise! Do hop over to the ICC blog to see, HERE

Magical Day by SU! Knight in Shining Armour mini card

Hello there,
Today's card is a fun mini sized card using the brilliant new narrow notecards from the S/S catalogue, you can bet you'll be seeing a lot more of these over the next few weeks ;-), which I've teamed with the most adorable stamp set e-ver! Magical Day!

 I used my Stampin' Blends to colour this little guy in :-) Video tutorial coming soon...

 I used some (retired) black glimmer paper (not just for halloween) with the NEW Tailored Tag punch as a fun layer behind the knight, you could of course use silver glimmer paper if you don't have any of this black.

 The sentiment is from the Sale a Bration Epic Celebrations stamp set and the papers are also freebies (both available to choose when you spend £45) called Bubbles and Fizz.

 Isn't this little fella just adorable??
Well, that's all from me today, I'll be back soon with another make :-)
'Till then, happy stampin'
