Simply Stampin' Challenge week 7

Its time for a new challenge at Simply Stampin' this week we have another sketch for your inspiration.  I really liked this sketch its a great starting place for a card when your lacking inspiration!!  The talented design team have again made some fabulous projects, so make sure you visit the Simply Stampin' challenge blog this week.

I'm planning on having a go at a scrapbook layout with this sketch during the week. I will post the finished layout once I get it  photographed.

 This was one of those cards I needed inspiration for - I was asked to make a card for a civil partnership in September and it had to be green.  I thought the sketch this week would be perfect for a simple design, the background was made with the So Swirly jumbo wheel using Garden Green ink over Garden Green card.  The ribbons are Very Vanilla satin and grosgrain ribbons layered up, with a beautiful frame form th new Four Frames stamp set punched with the matching punch.  I added a few pearls and the greeting is from the new Something to Celebrate  Level 2 hostess stamp set in the mini catalogue.

I still need to go and put everything away from my class last night with a lovely group of ladies they all loved the cards we made, so I will share them tomorrow, I still need to photograph them!!

Summer Wedding ......

A really simple card to share today, I was asked to make a last minute wedding card for a friend.

I have used the wedding cake stamp from the Fun & Fast Notes stamp set the image was coloured with the markers and blender pen. I  punched it out with the largest circle to make the scalloped border and have punched small circles gluing them to the back of the image to make a quick scalloped mat. For the background I have used the jumbo wheel So Swirly with So Saffron card & ink these wheels make fabulous backgrounds in no time at all - So Swirly is definately my favourite!!!  The tags are from the Tiny Tags stamp set - discounted for the month of August - punched with the matching jewlery punch. Finishing off with some lovely striped grosgrain ribbon in So Saffron.

Hope you like it, I will be back soon!!!

                            

Birthday Butterflies .....

 

I thought I would show you one of the favour boxes I have made for an order for the ladies attending a special birthday celebration.  They were to be in the colours of the local football team!! 

 I have used Real Red card with the jumbo So Swirly wheel, I love this wheel, and it makes the background so quick and easy to do!!   I have stamped one of the butterflies from the Flight of the Butterfly set and used the matching punch, the pearl is from the pretties kit.
