GDP#073 Sweet Colour Challenge


Welcome back for another card using Penned and Painted and the brilliant Delicate Details lace stamp from Sale a Bration. I am making a large stash of thankyou cards today so have created one using the colour challenge at GDP this week.


I have heat embossed the lace details in white on Kraft, and have also sponged some circles with white craft Ink onto the base layer. The flowers are stamped, fussy cut and raised on dimensionals. Add a little touch of Garden Green baker's twine leftover from Christmas and a few coloured dots, and tie the sentiment flag on and you're done.

Here's a little tip: The easiest way to get the lace straight is to position all 3 photopolymer stamps on the one block before you start stamping. That way you can also easily decorate the matching envelope by stamping on the flap.

this gives you a better shot of the envelope.

Thanks for looking, I'll be back with more cards using the delicate details set this weekend so make sure you have subscribed to receive all new posts straight to your inbox- the "FOLLOW ME BY EMAIL" BOX is just on the right of this page. (just below the 3 rainbow boxes at the top)

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
