Friday Freebie -Stamps for All Occasions

Hi Everybody,

This lovely stamp set does what it says and it is featured in the video

There is so much that you can do with this set to create different scenes for your self.

Then colour it with your favourite medium to personalise it in your style.

I really like the vertical sentiments in the set as they are so useful and make a change from horizontal ones.

Now if you would like this set then all you need to do is leave me a comment using your full name.

One of those comments will be chosen at random and the name announced in tomorrows blog post ... so be sure to come back and check.

Nesting Hexagons & Brushos

Hi Everybody,

This bright and cheerful card is easy to make and the Nesting hexagon shapes give it interest.

Alter the colours for another look and I think it would be suitable fro male cards too

The outer die of any of the 6x6 Trellis dies would help to give the larger frame when used with the Scalloped die from the box set.

You don't need a lot of the powder so each tub will last you a very long time and there are other ways in which it can be used.

I have dressed my card with some Rainbow gemstones from Crafti Potential

But this quick and easy card can be part of your "Go To" stash when you need a card in a hurry.

Blue & White With Love Card

Hi Everybody,

I am using the 6x6 Collection again today for this really pretty floral card and I have made the box to match

The card stand means that your recipient can display their card wherever they like and it will look good from all angles

The card is a lovely shade called Marine Blue from Papermill Direct and is my favourite shade of blue to use for card making as it teams so well with white 

My flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts
