Floral Creations

I love these new stamp and die cut sets from Sizzix and Hero Arts. Combined with chalks and Echo Park papers for a delicate look and of course I just had to add some gems and glitter. I used the hummingbird set.

Every Possibility!



I hope you'll enjoy this card, it was one of the cards that we made on Saturday's class.
I used tim Holtz Stuff to say and Reflections stamp sets and Fancy & Floral Frames embossing folders, EK Success flower punches. Stamp the embossing folder with one of the reflection stamps and emboss onto white cardstock. Use mustard seed and frayed burlap to colour. Cover the front and inside as shown using Echo Park Essentials Style cardstock in yellow. To make card cut two pieces of bazzill white card 12 x 30 cms - fold in half and 11 x 30 cms - fold in half, then score and fold 7 cms from either side. Cover as shown and attach to inside card approx. 4 cms from each side - stick one side down and then close card to attach the other side. Check out the products at www.theglitterpot.co.uk.
Why not join me on one of my classes here and have some fun.

xmas ideas


These cards were made using tim Holtz Seasonal embossing folders and reflections stamps and of course distress inks - stormy sky and tumbled glass. Stamp the greeting across the folder with versafink onyx black, then using white cardstock emboss the image. Use the distress inks to add colour, then use perfect pearls - turquiose gently brushed over the snowflake emboss image. Add gems to centres and tie with sheer ribbon. I used Echo Park Winter Park cardstock.
For the tree card I used same folders and stamps, but used peeled paint and forest moss ink pads and perfect pearls - pearl brushed over the trees. The tag was cut out using Tim Holtz tag die.
