Clean and Simple

Hi Everybody,

Today's card is created in a clean and simple style using the

 Spring/ Summer Stamp and Die Set 
from Card Making Magic

All my collection is available from Craft Stash 

If something is out of stock when you view it then leave your email address and they will let you know when it is back in stock

The flowers, leaves and butterfly have all been coloured with Brusho Crystal Colours and then the flowers decorated with a white gel pen

I stamped the background leaves in Pale green directly onto the card layer and then added everything else to the top with foam pads

The pearl flourish is a little extra and I think this is quite a pretty card and still consists of flowers and pearls 

More tomorrow ...

Mothers Day Card

Hi Everybody,

Mothers Day will be with us soon and so if you have cards to make for your mum or that you make for others then this is an idea that you may like to try.

I have used the
Card Making Magic Collection 
of dies. flowers, ribbons and pearls,  and I am really with the result

The video will show you how I made this card and I hope that you enjoy it.

I have used some beautiful blue card from Papermill Direct and it is a 255 GSM

Adding the die cuts stacked makes for a really strong base to your frames and the lace effect die cut too. I have added pearls to the edge of my lace and it looks really pretty.

Simply Cards & Papercraft 188 - Altenew Layered Daffodils

Hi Everybody,

This months Simpy Cards & Papercraft has a beautiful gift from Altenew in the shape of a Layered Daffodil Die Set

It's going to be on sale on the 21st February and so if you wanted this set you will need to be quick as it will go very quickly

Altenew is one of my favourite brands and the flowers they create are gorgeous so to get one as a magazine gift is great.

Now I know it says Daffodil but you can do your flowers any colour you wish using coloured card.

And if you don't have the shade you need then you can use white card and colour it with your favourite medium to suit your own designs.

 Just have fun playing with this die set and let the video show you how to assemble the flowers
