Happiness Surrounds Episode 3, positioning tips

Welcome back for Episode 3 where I used the set for some all over stamping.
I love the effect you can create with these gorgeous images and some simple stamping.
I have used the fabulous foil edged notecards and envelopes again, Simple and quick with a big wow factor.



Using the stamparatus for these images makes repeated stamping like this easy. 
  • Stamp all 3 colours with your card held in one position.
  • then move the cardstock to your next position and anchor it with the magnets and restamp all 3 colours
  • Repeat until happy
  • if you mark the underlying gridpaper with the position each time you stamp the images, you can repeat this pattern and stamp multiple cards 
  • to line up the images stamp the large outer circle first
  • position the radial leaf image with the tip of each leaf matching the base of the little fountain spray image - see photo below
  • position the small solid flower image with the join between each petal exactly matching the base of the leaf stalk in the radial image - see photo below





It will look fabulous every time.
Experiment with different colours.
I've also used this combo which I love

Here is another version using the same principal 


Tomorrow's episode is part of a blog hop so there will be even more samples.
I hope you have a creative week and remember,

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
