Overlaid Summer Silhouettes

Hello!

I had a fairly productive evening last night and managed to make 2 cards! Here is one of them...

I decided to use my Summer Silhouettes Stamp set as I haven't used it for a while. I stamped the leaves twice each inking to give some a faded effext and the same with the fussy cut flowers.

The button is made with Simply Pressed Clay (I always have some white ones made ready to colour with a marker or rub with inked tissue). I embossed and tore a panel of Core'dinations Basic Gray card for texture and a slightly 'shabby' look.

Supplies

Stamps - Summer Silhouettes, Pretty Petites (ret)

Ink - Old Olive, Melon Mambo, Basic Gray

Cardstock - Whisper White, Basic Gray, Basic Gray Core'dinations

Embossing - Woodgrain EF

Punch - Petite Curly Label

Other - Simply Pressed Clay, Baker's Twine

A Little Sale-A-Bration!

Good afternoon!

I've just got back from a busy morning with Keiran....pancake party, dog walking, shopping, and buying him a watch to reward him for getting Star of the Week at school for his time-telling! 

I made this little card the other day to go in a package I sent...I hope the recipient has received it, or doesn't come on here lol!

I have used Sale-A-Bration stamps; Bloomin' Marvellous and Pretty Petites, and stamped them in Real Red and Primrose Petals onto Whisper White card.

The sentiment was punched out using the free Petite Curly Label punch from the Sale-A-Bration too.

Products used

Cardstock - Whisper White, Pool Party

Stamps - Pretty Petites, Bloomin' Marvellous

Sale-A-Bration Thank you!

Hello!

Welcome to Guylaine, my newest follower!

I have a card here that took me longer to make than it really should have, all because I couldn't choose which papers to use!

So I settled on these ones, and embossed the middle panel with dots, which I think works well with the papers, don't you?

A closer look at the middle...

I raised the centre sentiment to add some definition to the card, though not too much, in case it needs to be posted.

Supplies needed for this card

Cardstock - Whisper White

Stamps - Pretty Petites (Sale-A-Bration)

Markers - Old Olive, Indigo Island, Tangerine Tango

Papers - Sycamore Street (Sale-A-Bration)

Embossing folder - Perfect Polka Dots

Punch - Petite Curly Label
