Summer Silhouettes meets Blooming with Kindness

I know I'm not supposed to have favourites as I get to play with so many gorgeous products as part of my job but I have to say when I saw the new catalogue two sets and an embossing folder jumped to the top of my must have list.

 

I am so in love with Summer Silhouettes and Blooming with Kindness I love everything about both sets from the gorgeous floral images to the oh so pretty sentiments.  In the new seasonal catalogue it is so easy to miss the Woodgrain Embossing folder hiding away at the top of Page 33 this embossing folder will be great for man cards or just for adding some interest and detail to any projects.

 

 

I thought I'd try some white on white so used the ever trusty Whisper White as my card base and then used a further panel and embossed using the Woodgrain Embossing folder I just love how much detail and interest this adds and the impression is just fab.   Midnight Muse is my favourite colour at the moment and I seem to be reaching for it time after time.  The sentiment comes from the Blooming with Kindness set and the floral image is from the Summer Silhouettes set I stamped in lucky limeade and primrose petals.  I then added some of the new stitched ribbon in Daffodil Delight (yummy) used a strip of co-ordinating paper from Floral District and a butterfly from the beautiful wings embosslits in Raspberry Ripple with a little rhinestone for extra detail.

I'm here for you Summer Silhouettes

Another card using the very beautiful Summer Silhouettes with another sentiment from Blooming with Kindness.   Colours used are Primrose Petal, Raspberry Ripple, Daffodil Delight, Lucky Limeade and Midnight Muse aren't they just lush I know I keep saying that but you should really try them out especially with the new style inkpads. 

This time I used the gorgeous Fancy Fan folder on a piece of Primrose Petal cardstock isn't it just soooooooo .. sigh.  The ribbon is from the new stitched grosgrain ribbon in Daffodil Delight which is on page 173 of the new catalogue and is great value at only £4.50 and comes in 10 different colourways.

Simple Thank You Cards

I like to send a little thank you card to anybody who places an order with me - these need to be quick and simple and a design I'm able to mass produce.

I used a simple whisper white card base measuring 4" x 4" and the gorgeous scroll stamp from the Creative Elements Stamp Set stamped in Lucky Limeade, the thank you from Curly Cute which I love is stamped in Midnight Muse and framed using the new Bitty Banners framelits to cut out the sentiment, the elegant butterfly punch and my favourite Daffodil Delight patterned paper from Floral District.

Come see what I made:

They really are quick and easy to make.  I made two different designs I did a mixture of both cards.  The second card uses the same elements apart from the butterfly which is stamped using one of the butterflies from Papillon Potpourri stamped in Raspberry Ripple.
