Each image is so different and the possibilities are endless. I have the wonderful opportunity to 'do what I love' and I would always choose to craft before housework!! You should see my house! Rather than scrapbook a page about housework I made a couple of cards for some of my crafty friends. Whose day could you brighten with a card just because? This is a great set for that.

I used the sunburst design...just cut strips 4 x 1 inches and cut diagonally to create triangles. Choose a point for the triangles to spread out from. I left a gap so the base cardstock could be seen. This card features our CTMH documented paper suite.

Recently we went to an apple picking orchard with the grandkids. They had so much fun and I am sure these images will look great on those scrapbook pages, but I decided to create a cute card.

Most of the images are stamped on white cardstock and coloured with an assortment of Shin Han markers. I enjoyed the relaxing colouring session. Be sure to get hold of this stamp set during June.

ENJOY!!

May's exclusive products .....'Postcard Perfect'...... are available exclusively throughout May only or while supplies last.... The paper pack is beautiful with great designs and beautiful patterned vellum's. There is a matching stamp set too. The paper pack is $23 and the stamp set is $27. There are 9 individual stamps in this set .....so they are just wonderful and can be added to any project. This stamp set has so many possibilities so check out all the posts for loads of ideas for cards and scrapbook pages.

This kit is pre-cut and easy to use to make 3 double page layouts.

The paper pack features some beautiful prints that would suit a tropical holiday but can also be used for many other themes. There are 4 printed vellum sheets that are just beautiful. Be sure to get this exclusive pack.

My love at the moment is our basics paper range along with Bashful. Now I am not even a pink person but I have loved these palettes together. So I chose the paper from the pack that didnt highlight all the bright colours ...woodgrain, and partnered it with the exclusive stamp set for Postcard Perfect and made a delightful card.

Using bashful ink random stamp the bashful cardstock. This is mounted on toffee cardstock. the flowers are from the stamp set and also stamped in bashful and almond ink for the leaves.
Use 3D foam to raise the flowers and give depth. Shimmer pen bashful adds the shine and shimmer to the flowers.

Change the colors ....same design...different look

I enjoyed making this card and using the mason jar. I incorporated the NEW stamp set for our exclusive National Scrapbooking month.....Postcard Perfect. The flowers look great and I love the woodgrain paper from the Fresh Air Palette. Stamp flowers in Cranberry on Bashful cardstock and fern leaves on fern cardstock. A little bit of shimmer brush adds to the stamped trim on the jar. The stems were drawn with black journal pen.

ENJOY!!

I love the fonts for these sentiments and make it easy to use for a variety of themes. Brighten a winters day or enjoy the summer sun! The assortment of flowers lends itself to easy stamping....pick a colour and go for it. I stuck with the black and made a simple design.

Add some patterned paper from 'Gimme some Sugar' palette, use the little flower as a background stamp. add a flower from D1741 Beautiful You and 'wow'... another great idea.
