Today I’m sharing a card featuring a white heat embossed acetate panel. I love the look of this technique, especially when layered over a panel of colour. I shared another card previously using this technique - click here to check out that card too. I cut a piece of heat resistant acetate and treated it… Continue reading Plane and Simple Embossing
I’m sharing a triptych style card today featuring the Pretty Pink Posh Cherry Blossoms stamp set. A triptych is a picture across three panels, and the stitched pieces die is great for creating this look. I wanted to do some watercolouring with my zig pens, so I cut a piece of watercolour card to the… Continue reading Triptych with Cherry Blossoms
Today I’m sharing a shadow box card featuring the cute aliens from Lawn Fawn Beam Me Up. I usually create a galaxy background when I make space related cards, but I thought it would be fun to use some bright colours this time, to create an alien landscape. I chose some patterned paper from my… Continue reading Alien Birthday Shadow Box Card
I shared a photo the other day on instagram of a dragon from the Mama Elephant Me and My Dragon stamp set, which I’d coloured to be a galaxy dragon. I used Faber Castell polychromos pencils to do this. I’ve done plenty of distress ink galaxy backgrounds before, but never tried using colouring pencils so… Continue reading Me and My Galaxy Dragon

I chose two colours of distress oxide inks - peacock feathers and cracked pistachio, and pressed the ink pads… Continue reading Happy Balloons with Distress Oxide Watercolour

I stamped lots of the flower images with versamark, then heat embossed them with rose gold embossing powder. I added some… Continue reading Cherry Blossoms
The new Love Sentiments set from Pretty Pink Posh has some lovely hearts in various styles and sizes. I thought they would make a great background to accompany a sentiment from the same set. I stamped a scattered hearts background with versamark, heat embossing them in various metallic embossing powders. For a sentiment, I stamped… Continue reading Hearts and Love Sentiments
I’m continuing my love of blue and white florals with my card today. This time, I’m using colouring pencils for a different look. I began by white heat embossing some flowers and leaves from the Pretty Pink Posh Pretty Petunias stamp set. I then chose some blue shades of pencils and did some very simple… Continue reading Blue and White Petunias
