This is my second post today, so please scroll down to see my Crafty Calendar Challenge DT card.
Our first Allsorts Challenge of 2025 begins today. Remember Allsorts Challenges are now every two weeks, so plenty of time to make up to five creations for each challenge. The theme this time is 'Matching Pairs'. Will you make a card with a matching envelope or matching tag, or will you think of something else to make a matching pair. As usual, there is always the optional theme of Anything Goes.
I was lucky enough to receive a Sizzix Stamp & Spin Tool for my birthday in November. I've played around with it on scraps of paper and this is my first attempt at using it to make a card. This tool is a game changer for making wreaths and it's so easy to use. The wreath and matching envelope were stamped Lavina ‘Woodland Fern’, ‘Flowers Mini’, ‘Mini Flutter’, using Versafine Clair ink pads ‘Bali Blue’, ‘Hawthorn Rose’, ‘Grass Green’. The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin’ Up 'Humming Along'.
There are three prizes from Lavinia stamps to be won.
Please note, we (Lavinia) cannot provide exchanges/replacements/refunds for any products received through this third-party giveaway.
I am joining in the following challenges:
A very pretty card and envie using the mini stamps Liz, I don't think some realise just how useful they are.

Wow, Liz! Your card and matching envelope are absolutely stunning. The Sizzix Stamp & Spin Tool seems like a game changer, and you've used it beautifully. The combination of Lavina stamps and Versafine Clair ink pads creates such a vibrant and elegant look.

It's so pretty and you used such lovely colours.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card Liz. Your lovely bright colours stand out so well against the white background.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful Liz, the wreath is perfectly symmetrical so I guess that the new spin tool works well! Such pretty stamps and colours too.

A very pretty card Liz with your mini stamps, and certainly a big success with your new tool. x
ReplyDeleteThe card by itself is so pretty with those butterflies but the matching envelope takes it over the top for me. Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the wreath design and the colours are so pretty too Liz, and this accessory is a great add on, and also the same design added to the corner of the envelope is a wonderful idea. x
ReplyDeleteThat Bali Blue is gorgeous color and I hear it calling my name! The wreath is lovely and so unexpected with the mini flowers and butterflies. I love it, Liz.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of a spin tool!
ReplyDeleteI will have to check it out as your card is amazing!
