Butterfly Heart

Hello there, I saw this new Memory Box Butterfly Heart die and I couldn't resist! How pretty are those butterflies. I made two cards (very similar) last weekend and this is the first one. I have simply cut the die on a piece of white CS and then bent the wings slightly. I have added this to a card base made from PTI Winter Wisteria CS. The sentiment is from the Clearly Besotted A Little Sentimental set. Finished off with a few Doodlebug Mini Jewels.

Thank you so much for visiting me today, I will be back tomorrow with my other card using this die. Have a lovely day!

Branching Out Owlies

Hello there, happy Sunday! I hope you are having a nice weekend so far. I bought this Stamping Bella stamp a little while ago and today I fancied doing a little bit of colouring so I had to stamp it up! Of course I had to use the Lawn Fawn Into The Woods paper pad .. it just seemed appropriate! The sentiment is from the Clearly Besotted Say It In Style stamp set  - yes that is the font from my blog :0)


SUPPLIES:


COPIC MARKERS: Owls - E23, E25, E27, Y28, B91. Branch: E48. Shadow/sky - B000, B00, B01, Blender.
 
Thanks so much for visiting me today. I start my first day University tomorrow, the hard work starts here! Have a great day!

Party Balloon - DTDF

Hello there, today I am sharing a card I have made using the MFT Party Balloons Die-Namics which are now available at Dies to Die for. I have first taken a sheet of paper from the MME Sky's The Limit Paper Pad and cut this with an MFT Circle Stax Die-Namics die to use as the sky. I have then cut some clouds using the MFT Clouds Trio Die-Namics from vellum and added these on top with some MME Enamel Dots. I have then cut the balloon from one of the sheets from same paper pad and added this with 3D foam pads adding some twine around. The sentiment is from the MFT More Essential Sentiments set.

Thanks so much for visiting me today, I hope you are all doing well.

Clearly Besotted Stamps Jan 2014 Release Reveal

Hello there, I am back with my CBS release video for this month. I have heard that some people find these videos helpful in seeing the stamps in the 'flesh' as well as seeing my sample cards so I hope you enjoy ...
 


All the products will be available in the shop tonight at 10pm and shortly afterwards at Simon Says Stamp. Please pop by Stephanie's Blog for a chance to win £30 store credit to spend on any CBS products. I would also love to hear your thoughts on the products, any you will definitely be buying?
 
I also just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who watches my videos. I made it to 1,000 subscribers on my You Tube Channel over the weekend and I am so happy! I know this is still small time compared to most card makers but I am really happy about it so thank you! Have a lovely day!

Say It In Style - CBS Teasers

Hello there, today is the day! All the new products will be available in the shop tonight at 10pm. For my last day of Clearly Besotted teasers today I am using the new Say It In Style stamp set. I have used this set on a few cards this week and it is amazing! You will love it, It is packed full of great sentiments in the most gorgeous fonts ... can you tell I love it?!
 
For my card today I have used the large belated birthday sentiment and stamped this on to a panel of white CS with memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I have then taken the present from the It's Your Birthday set, stamped this with PTI Winter Wisteria ink on to separate piece of CS and then cut out using the matching die. I have added this to the panel with 3D foam and then liberally covered with my Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (yes I am obsessed with this!). The panel has been added to a PTI Winter Wisteria CS base and then finished off with teeny 2mm rhinestones.
 

SUPPLIES:


I still have a few sets that I haven't 'teased' with you yet as I couldn't fit them all in but I will be using them soon. Please pop by Stephanie's Blog for the reveal of the stamps and dies in full as well as links to the other DT members who are sharing teasers today. I will also be back later with my release video. Thanks for visiting me today!
