Roman Trellis Background

Hi Everybody,

If you have been watching Create and Craft this past week you will have seen the new collection from Spellbinders.

It is the Renaissance Collection and there are many really lovely dies for you to choose from.

Most of the cards that were shown on the shows are those that I have created and these are just two of them.

These use the Roman Trellis,  Labels 56 Deco Accents and Labels 56 Deco Elements

All are designed by Stacey Caron  who is the founder of Spellbinders.

Some of them are really large dies which are a pleasure to work with

I will show you some more samples over the weeks but these two pink ones are some of my favorites



The card that I use is from Papermill Direct  and the rest of my supplies are linked below for you to see

More tomorrow ...

International Ambassadors Informal Blog Hop

Hi Everybody,

Its that time of the month again when some of the Ambassadors go hopping around and we really hope that you will join us again.

This month we have chosen Tags for our theme and each one of us would like to show you what we have created

I made mine in the Shabby Chic Style that I really enjoy making and for this I created my tag from Labels 28

I cut this three times and glued them all together for extra strength.

Then I added different elements to create the background and added in some torn paper.

The die cut under the flowers is Victorian Medallion One

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and they have been sparkled with fine glitter

To see what my colleagues have designed please pop along to ...

Linda Lucas Australia
Yvonne van de Grijp  Netherlands
Christina Emberson  UK

Please leave us a comment so that we know you have visited and Thank You so much for taking part

Wednesday Water Colour - Sketched Elephants

Hi Everybody,

For this Water Colour Wednesday we have a video tutorial on YouTube showing you how I created this card.

This is  Sketched Elephants  from Whimsy Stamps and I have also used Spectrum Noir pens to create the hills

It is a delightful stamp set that has it's own matching dies but you could always just fussy cut the image out if you don't have them.

I have added the list of supplies at the bottom of the post  ... but shop around for them as you may find them cheaper.

I have done quite a few water colour videos lately and they will be added each week on YouTube and each will cover a different stamp and die set

Thank you if you have subscribed to my channel it is very much appreciated. I hope you enjoy the latest colouring videos

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
