TCTC#9 Gorgeous Bermuda combo

Can you believe it? I'm a guest designer??, and what gorgeous colours to play with. Thanks so much to Bronwyn for all her inspiration.
I think this lovely combo is perfect for a mother's day card.
I love watercolouring on Shimmery White cardstock, it gives such lovely fluid backgrounds. And of course you can stamp on them too, here I used the timeless textures while it was wet. And Gold simply has to be heat embossed, so once I had the gold butterfly it was easy to colour with a blender pen and Soft Sky ink. The gold glimmer washing tape from the sale-a-bration specials makes it so easy. The little flower is from the Rose Garden thinlits and was cut from
shimmery white cardstock too. There's a little watercolour panel behind it but it needed some glitter to bring it to life!


If you click on the colour tree logo image above it will take you to the challenge page and you can link up your creation, and check out some others.

Look forward to seeing what you create too.

thanks for looking,

Envelope Dies perfect for an Acetate Tent card and some new DSP

After creating yesterday's cards I was on a roll and created this one using the beautiful Gilded Autumn DSP and the Fancy Phrases stamp set.  I really love the sentiments in this set.  It is such a simple design and easy to create. You can find all the directions on yesterday's post for Just Add Ink (JAI#518)  I watercoloured the white leaf after I had adhered the gold veins just to soften it, and I added a strip of mint DSP to the front of one of the tent stands as the white was a bit stark. That's the cool thing about this design, you can change it up plenty of ways. I'm sure we can all send these type of cards at the moment. I hope you are safe and well, and staying connected, wherever you are. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz Product List Ornamental Envelopes Bundle [ 155168 ] $83.50 Envelopes  Dies [ 153531 ] $63.00 Shimmery White A4 Car

#Onstage Sydney 2022 Fancy Flora Suite , Display Stamping # 1 beginner, casual, avid samples

I'm so honoured to have been asked to present the premier suite "Fancy Flora" from the new Mini Catalogue - what a treat. ( Available January 5 - May 12023 ). This is one of a series of posts showing some of the projects I created using this suite. It's a long one so grab a cuppa and enjoy my tips and tricks and first projects. Relieved the presentation is over and with my samples on the board! Firstly I had the pleasure of showing the suite- 2 stampsets, 2 sets of dies, some 6x6 DSP, Shimmer Card, Ribbon and Gems. With every new set I allow myself plenty of time to just play with it and explore the possibilities in colour and layout. In doing this I create a series of Mood boards that make it much faster when I come to use the product to quickly identify how many dies in each set, how many stamps and which ones match the dies, and which ribbons and bling I have in my stash- or in the current catalogues that match the colours of the new suite. That way I don't for
