Language of Love with Really Good Greetings

Hi there,
Today's upside; I had a lovely class this morning and a trip out to deliver to a local lady and a bit of shopping in asda too. 
Downside of the day; my car is playing up and the stop light kept blinking on on the way home, I was a bit worried I would get stuck up the school with Zack and a boot full of shopping!
Well, wish me luck, I'm going to take it into the garage tomorrow and I hope with all I have that I don't have to re-mortgage the house to fix it! lol ;-)
So, I do have a card to share with you today but I just want to remind you that even when I don't post on here I do try to connect via Facebook most days, to follow me directly on your timeline go HERE. The card I have to share was made for a lady who hubby works with and she was leaving to have a baby, ahhhh.
I made this in pastel "baby" colours to keep in the theme but not with baby stamps as I'm sure when she has the littlie I will be making a specific card with colours, names and dates abound ;-)
Take a look....
 These super sweet banners are from the Language of Love stamp set in the Spring/Summer catalogue, as you can see, it's not just for valentines. I also stamped some of the hearts using versamark on the background layer. OK, don't panic when I say this; I actually have this set in clear mount and have cut the row of hearts up (Eeek!!) so I could stamp them separately, remember what I said to you last week?

 I inked this sentiment up with markers and added the "we" as it was from a load of the folks in the office, I also added an embossed effect behind the green panel, to see how to get this look go to my free TUTORIAL. The embossed panel was made using the FREE (during sale-a-bration) Decorative Dots folder.
Wisteria chevron ribbon and a glitter heart to decorate
 and a side view of those yummy banners to finish today ;-)
Right, I hope you like today's this evening's card!?
I'm off to watch a film with hubby for the rest of my night off :-)
Thanks for looking today,

Washi Tape, Really Good Greetings and a couple of Ribbon Shares!

Hello,
Well, down here in the South the weather today is reported to be a stonking 32 degrees, said to be hotter the Barbados! so that means just one thing for us. Yup, we're off to the beach!
** RIBBON SHARES**
Before I share the card with you I just wanted to let you know I'll be doing a Chevron Ribbon Share and a Ruffled Ribbon share. To see all the ribbons please go HERE
 I'm ordering the ribbons this week so I'll post as soon as they are ready for shipping which should be later next week. You can also add any other items you need to this order with FREE postage if you collect from me too!

The Chevron share will be for ONE metre of each and the cost is just £11.00 collected and £12.00 posted. The colours included are:
Smoky Slate
Basic Black
Blushing Bride 
Calypso Coral
Chocolate Chip 
Crushed Curry 
Island Indigo 
Marina Mist 
Pear Pizazz

and Wisteria Wonder. 
I have had the opportunity to play with this ribbon and it's simply lovely! It's really soft and ties wonderful bows too! Swoon!
**ALL SOLD OUT! MESSAGE ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED AND I WILL ORGANISE ANOTHER SHARE STARTING AT THE BEGINNING OF SEPTEMBER**

and Crisp Cantaloupe
**I HAVE JUST 3 SHARES OF THIS RIBBON LEFT, MESSAGE ME TO GRAB YOURS**
To order your shares please email me with your requirements at
So, I do have a card to share with before we head off out, I made this for my team training a couple of weeks ago, it's such a quick and easy card to make, it just needs drying time for the glitter glue. In fact I made a similar one for classes this week too which I'll share with you soon (as I still have to edit that pic too!)
For the sentiment I used my new set "Really Good Greetings" with the Gingham Garden Washi Tape. Love this, the colours are so pretty and it's such great value at just £4.50 for the three rolls!!
 We kept the inking simple and stamped it in Strawberry Slush, punched out with the 2+3/8" scallop circle punch
 A close up of the washi tape, we just tore sections for a rough edge look. There is still so much left on the rolls, it seems to go on forever this stuff!
Right, I'm off to the beach with the family!
Have a fab day and keep safe in the sun wherever you are :-)
Stampin' Hugs,

Betsy's Blooms class card

Hey there,
I'm back today with a card from my Stamp-a-Stack last week...
Next weeks class (Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd) are MY LAST CLASSES until the 31st August, message me to join in this summer!!
 ...this card was inspired by a card I saw in the new catalogue HERE and uses the Betsy's Blooms wheel (which I have un-mounted, see this tutorial)
I stamped the blossom strip (l-r) first in Basic Grey, then Wisteria Wonder and finally in Smoky Slate...
 the wisteria ribbon was the very last bit I had and unfortunately is now retired and I added a small strip of grey stitched grosgrain in at the end of tying the knot
 and the sentiment is from Really Good Greetings, speaking of greetings there is a fab promo on selected greetings stamps this month too!
Well, I hope you like today's card? I'm off to fetch Zack before going work later, it's going to be scorchio in the ole' kitchen tonight!
Thanks for stopping by today,
Stampin' Hugs,
