Grateful

Hello everyone! I hope that you are well. Today I am sharing some cards with you that I made over the weekend. I bought a while ago the Gina K wreath maker template , but I only had a chance to play with them now! Can I just say that I am a fan!! I made two cards in record time. The longest part of the process was deciding on the colours of inks to stamp with!!!

I decided to use the 4" x 4" template, so once you get into a rhythm using your MISTI, you are right. TIP: Remember to close the lids of your ink pads. I didn't and I picked up the wrong one and I made a mistake in my stamping...never mind!

I used my Hero Arts ink pads to create my wreath. When I have another chance to make more, I will look at all of my stamps to see what other designs I could use from my stash...Christmas is coming!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Flamingo Wreath Card

Hello everyone! I hope that you had a lovely Easter with your loved ones. Today I am sharing a card with you that was a birthday card that I made for someone who absolutely loves flamingos! I also dug deep into my stash to create the floral wreath which frames it as well.

I started my wreath by using a circular stamp and then I pulled out any floral and foliage stamps that I owned and stamped away. It was very easy to do once I had found the stamps that I needed. I used a wink of stella clear pen to highlight some of the flowers in the wreath.

Supplies:

Stamp: Hero Arts Color Layering Flamingo and Die

Paper: Strathmore Smooth

Dies: My Favourite Things Single Stitch Line Rectangle Frames

Ink: Flamingo Hero Arts Soft Pink, Soft Blossom and Ultra Pink
Wreath: Gero Arts Green Hills, Grape Juice, Field Greens, Soft Blossom, Ultra Pink, Altenew Warm Sunshine

Other: MISTI, Wink Of Stella Clear, Foam Tape

Stamps: 49 and Market Gabi's Circle Stitch Stamp Set, Stampin' Up! Vintage Vogue and Baroque motifs, Grant Archival Christina Re, Design a Flower set Practical Publishing
