Love in bloom

I made a couple of cards with Tattered lace`s Love in bloom stamps by Victoria Nelson. I love the designs, which could be used for many occasions. I stamped the main image a couple of times and decoupaged the butterflies to help give the feeling of dimension. I used some torn water-colour paper for the blue card. I made my own flowers using Tattered Lace dies.

Tatty Twinkle



I had  an opportunity to play with some of the Tatty Twinkle stamps. They stamp clearly and have lots of sticky on the back so they adhere well to a stamp block. The tag is blank and could be used for a variety of occasions.




I stamped onto water-colour paper on which I had already put some wash, This created a lovely soft effect.





















Heartfelt

I used the tattered lace dies to make this engagement card. The waistcoat was made from one heart and the bow-tie was from one of my digi-kits.

Playing ball

I have enjoyed making paper balls with the die from Creative Dies, which came with a craft magazine. I have tried making them with a variety of materials such as card, vellum, an old book and flyers.
If there was no fire risk they would look cool on a string of lights. I have not tried putting a bell in for the cat to play with yet! I`m wondering if they would work with felt. I`m also thinking the paper balls could be personalised with photos.

Rumble in the jungle

I used the Tattered Lace panorama dies to make this jungle card. The tree dies are from couture. See if you can spot the crocodile.
