Yippee for Jelly Beans!

July 28, 2017July 29, 2017 Gemma C

Jelly Beans are just perfect for a celebration card. They look like they are jumping for joy!I used the Lawn Fawn How You Bean shaker companion die set to make this a shaker card. I stamped and coloured lots of jelly beans, then stamped the wonderfully fun faces on them to give them all characters.… Continue reading Yippee for Jelly Beans!

Duh-Nuh Circle Scene Card

July 25, 2017July 25, 2017 Gemma C

I wanted to create a layered card but keep the dimension to a minimum, so it's easy to mail. I've used circles to create scenes within layers. This is a small card, so I only have 3 layers (two plus the card base). The bigger the card, the more layers you can use, but obviously… Continue reading Duh-Nuh Circle Scene Card

MFT Sketch Challenge 342

I'm joining in with the MFT Sketch challenge with this fun hippo card. I began by applying MFT ink to a white card base, then adding a piece of patterned paper to the bottom edge, cut with a scalloped edge border die. For the top part of the card, I die cut a speech bubble… Continue reading MFT Sketch Challenge 342

The More Candles, The Bigger The Wish!

July 18, 2017 Gemma C

Happy Tuesday! Today I'm sharing a card featuring in-laid die cutting. This is one of my favourite techniques for adding depth to a card. I'm using the MFT Birthday Candles dienamics for my card today. I cut a rectangle of card to be slightly smaller than my card base, and then I die cut the… Continue reading The More Candles, The Bigger The Wish!

MFT Colour Challenge 73

July 16, 2017December 5, 2017 Gemma C

I love the latest MFT challenge colours - coral and teal is such a pretty combination. I already had an idea for a card, so I thought the colours would be perfect for it. I got the DCVW Glitzy Glitter papers recently and they are so gorgeous, the fine glitter is so much nicer than… Continue reading MFT Colour Challenge 73

Rainbow Baby Box Card

July 14, 2017July 14, 2017 Gemma C

Hello, I have another box card to share today. I began this new baby box card by creating the pieces to go inside it. I die cut two MFT Stitched Rainbows, as I wanted a rainbow on both sides. As I needed a smaller rainbow to fit within the box card, I only used the… Continue reading Rainbow Baby Box Card

Watercolour Roses

July 11, 2017December 5, 2017 Gemma C

It's been a while since I've done any watercolouring so it was time to get my zig clean colour real brush pens out again for this card. I started by heat embossing some leaves from the Altenew Hello Sunshine stamp set with gold embossing powder. I added a sentiment from the Altenew Celebrate stamp set… Continue reading Watercolour Roses

Minions

July 9, 2017July 9, 2017 Gemma C

I got the MFT Blueprints 31 dienamics set recently. Just looking at it reminds me of minions so I had to make a minion card! I used some Lawn Fawn card stock for the yellow, die cutting it with the largest rounded stitched rectangle in the set. I cut the middle piece from black card… Continue reading Minions

I'm joining in with the MFT challenges again as it's been ages since I have, for one reason or another. What better way then to dive back in and combine both challenges on one card! I really love the colour challenge colours and think they are perfect for a masculine card. I began by using… Continue reading MFT Sketch Challenge 340
