Needlepoint Nook and Just Add Ink #434

Hello again. Still having fun with the Needlepoint Nook suite today. I have a stash of  flowers cut and ready to add to any project. The scrabble letters caught my eye as I was looking for something else so I set myself a little challenge to use them today. The woodgrain tag was part of the same set and the real red ribbon has just been asking to be used. I am in love with the foil edged cards- they make any task just so easy.
At this end of the school year there are so many amazing young adults about to embark on their next phase of life. Cards like this can be very helpful to say congratulations.

I think it fits for the challenge at Just Add Ink this week. #434

a few little details popped in among the blossoms!

Back to work on finishing some Christmas cards but this was fun.

I hope you have a creative week and remember, 
"don't just post online,
 post something pretty!"

cheers, Liz

  2. What gorgeous layers of detail you have adDed to your petite tag canvas Liz! I really like the effect of layering the die cut foliage over the stamped foliage. Thanks so much for joining us at Just Add Ink this week.

  3. Such a fabulous card to encourage a young student, Liz! I love how you've created your tag with the sweet floral spray and the scrabble letters are so clever too! Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week.

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
