Here are a couple of the cards that I designed for last weekend's Stamp-A-Stack. I was really quite pleased with this first card. I adore these little birds from the Love You Much stamp set - I stamped them on Watercolour Card Stock using StazOn ink and then watercoloured them using an Aquapainter and Brocade Blue ink. I punched them out using the Wide Oval Punch. I was really happy with using the Heart to Heart Punch across the bottom of the Brocade Blue card stock so that you could see the Real Red card stock through. And, I had been inspired by Lorraine's card which I posted last week for the greeting - I wanted to use some Twill Tape and this was the perfect card for it! The greeting comes from the Holidays & Wishes stamp set and we stamped it on with StazOn ink as well.
This second card uses the new stamp set called Petal Pizazz. I have lots of these small Filigree Brads left after using several of the large ones on my Christmas cards so I was determined to include them on a card for the Stamp-A-Stack and this turned out to be an ideal solution! Many stampers commented on the unusual colour combination which is quite eye-catching - it's Rose Red, Always Artichoke and Elegant Eggplant. The greeting comes from the On Your Birthday stamp set although this card would certainly work for many occasions.Remember to read about my rescheduled Open House in the post below... The date is now February 21st and I hope you are able to come!
Happy stampin'!
