CI#161 Simply Zinnias- fresh and colourful thankyou cards.



Well what a lovely colour combination this turned out to be! 
I wasn't sure how the bright pink and the muted pink would go together but I love it.

And can you spot the new stampset - Simply Zinnias is an online exclusive product which just became available. It's such an easy set to work with.
The embossing folder is just so detailed it's a real pleasure to use.


of course I always decorate the inside too.

so bright and cheerful.

I was having such a great time creating with these colours that I made 2 cards.


For this one I stamped in Moody Mauve and coloured over some of the petals with Melon Mambo.

The Flowering Zinnias suite is so beautiful, and so easy to use I can highly recommend it.


I love to decorate the inside too.


I hope you get a chance to join in with this week's colour combination. It's a beauty.
Then share your card with us at our Facebook group.

It's a big week this week with the annual Stampin Up! event happening in Melbourne. For the first time I will not be attending, but I have lots of friends who will be there checking out what's coming with the new catalogue at the end of April.
In the meantime you can see what else is new along wiht the Zinnias suite by clicking on the following link for the Online exclusives - none of these products will be in any printed catalogue.




I hope you have a creative week and remember,

 post something pretty!"

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
