Take a sip …

The stamping wheels from Stampin’ Up! not only make projects quick and easy to do, but they offer fantastic value for money when you change things up a bit and alter the wheel.  I took my scissors to two of my wheels – friendly words and take a sip -  making myself a fabulous new collection of single stamps in the process.  There’s a free tutorial on my blog showing you how to do this here.

With a little bit of paper piecing, these little thank you notelets came together easily;

and shading was added with ink and a blender pen.

Here’s what you need to make today’s card – all supplies are from Stampin’ Up!

cardstock: riding hood red, crumb cake, very vanilla; stamp sets: friendly words, take a sip; ink: early espresso;  accessories: neutrals dsp, stampamajig.

A mixed bunch of sunshine and flowers …

Inspired by a card I’d seen on Splitcoast Stampers, I used so saffron cardstock and ink to make this thank you card for my friend…

The design is simple, yet stunning, and quick to make too, so when you need a whole “mixed bunch” of them, you can whip them up in a jiffy! 

I met up with my friend, and fellow Pink Lady, at my local coffee shop in Wirral, not far from where I live, and we could swear that they had flowers just like this on the tables!  And in just this colour too!  I love being a Pink Lady and the new friendships I’ve found through being a part of Michelle Last’s team – that’s what is so great about Stampin’ Up! 

Here’s what you need to make today’s card – all supplies are from Stampin’ Up!

cardstock: whisper white, so saffron; stamp sets: mixed bunch, just believe; ink: so saffron, early espresso; punches: blossom, 1″ circle; accessories: stampin’ dimensionals, stampamajig.

Wonderful wisteria posy …

I loved the mixed bunch stamp set that was in the summer mini catalogue - what great images - beautiful, large flowers … and something tells me it’s going to make another appearance and continue to be a firm favourite of mine …

I used pool party, wisteria wonder and melon mambo to ink up this thank you card …
