Summer Silhouettes

Hello there!

I hope you all had a fab weekend! and enjoyed a wonderful Father's Day with your nearest and dearest ;-)

We had a lovely weekend as a family which was lovely and a bit of a rarity these days!

So, today I have a card I made for a friend which I sent as a New Home card. It uses the very pretty Summer Silhouettes in a yellow and green colour combo, very summery.

The DSP is Tea for Two from the spring/summer catty and I was playing with the finishing touches edgelits on the white card

 I love that although you can use the flowers with the stamp-a-ma-jig you don't actually have to with this set!

 and I added a pretty bow using the stitched grosgrain ribbon and a button to top it off

Just a quick reminder before I go. I have a NEW stampers 6 club starting now, I also have the NEW 2013-2014 catty in my hands which I will send out FREE to all stampers club members,

Please message me to join the fun or

Right, I have a load of cards to make so I'm going to dash off now :-)))

Rain or Shine?

Hello,

Honestly, today here is the first sunny day in an age (I swear!) so of course I have a card with umbrellas all over it!! How's that for timing eh??

So, the yummy paper I used for this card comes from the stack on page 16 of the Spring/Summer catty and it's called Print Poetry DSP Stack, please don't be put off (as I was initially) thinking it's all red and green, look underneath and see the colours in the stack are mostly this years (2012-2014) In Colours so lots of yummy pinks and my favourite Summer Starfruit and I teamed it with Rain or Shine with it's cute umbrellas ;-)

 I added a touch of (wobbly) sewing around three sides finishing with a zig zag at each end. 

And this decorative edging at the bottom is courtesy of the finishing touches edgelits (Page 190 main catty)

and some pleated Summer Starfruit ribbon finishes today's card off perfectly :-)))) 

Well, I hope you like today's card,

I'm off to play some more in my craft room before the peace of school time ends and half term chaos begins!

Just so you know I am placing an order tonight if you would like to add to it then please do get in touch,

Have a fab day and I hope the sun shines for you today too !

Stampin' Hugs,
