On a Waterside Retreat

I’m on holidays this week from the “day job” and mostly hanging out at home. But you’ll be I’ll have a book on the go even if I’m not sitting dockside. We made this card at the June Avid Stampers class using our amazing Relaxing Waterside Bundle and coordinating Waterside Retreat patterned paper. To make the hanging sign, use the cast off pieces from the back of the chair. Enjoy!

Get the Artisan Sketched Garden paper for floral cards

Sneak peek of one of the cards we’re making at my Team Stampin’ Social next week! In prepping the card, I pulled out Flirty Flamingo cardstock and my stampin’ blends to colour in the vase and flowers from the Artisan Sketched Garden patterned paper. It’s got great black and white images just perfect for adding colour to using your favourite medium: markers, pencil crayons or a ink and a blender pen.  Layered up and oh so pretty for an any occasion card.

Gorgeous Greens in Moonlit Flora

Ooh la la! Love the bold shades of Golden Glow and Berry Burst offset by a variety of greens on this one! Use those die cuts in your collection to layer up some goodness. The two squares are 2.5 inches and slightly offset to add depth and perspective. Can never have enough embossed bits. Seriously – this is a 6+ layer card from base to the linen thread. Really makes a statement and ready to brighten up someone’s day.

Spectacular Boutique Bloom card

I was inspired by my Silver Sister, Tamara Bertram’s card for this layout. Over the embossed layer, are 1 inch squares from the sensational Boutique Bloom specialty designer series paper. Finished it off with a die cut, greeting and ribbon for a quick and elegant card. Use any patterned paper and embossing folder to duplicate. Do you like it? Let me know!

Flowers Fair Bouquet

Do you like to colour? Maybe instead, you’d prefer to add colour with a sponge dauber or blending brush onto a stamp? Either way, Wendy’s Team Shoebox Swap card from June 6, is a stunner featuring this gorgeous background stamp called Flowers Fair. We stamped the image in Granny Apple Green ink then coloured in with 4 shades of Stampin’ Blends: Lemon Lolly, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green and Timid Tiger. Turned out great and really screams, “Bring on Summer!”
