Lavinia Stamp Challenge 1 # ‘Anything Goes’

After visiting the Hobbycraft craft fair at the NEC last weekend, I added a new Lavinia stamp to my ever-growing collection. The background behind the silhouette was done using Adirondack 'Red Pepper', 'Sunshine Yellow' and 'Sunset Orange' inks and I used the same inks to colour the vertical strips. An Embossalicious Petite Dots Embossing Folder was used for the background. As it's a 6 x 6 embossing folder, it's great for square cards.

Post-it Note Holder

Fiskarettes had a competition this week to make a card, scrapbook page or home decor using border punches.  Well....being a fan of border punches I decided to make a decorative Post-it Note Holder, using an inexpensive acrylic photo frame.  I used the Fiskars Sunburst and Threading Water border punches and used Card Candi as embellishments.  The colours match my craft room.

 



Card Sketch Challenge - #2

Another week and another card sketch challenge.  This time I decided to use a stamp I've had for a long time but haven't got round to using.  I used the Swiss Dot embossing folder for the background.



Card Sketch Challenge

I decided to take part in a Card Sketch challenge on the Splitcoast Stampers website.  Here is the card I made using the sketch to design my card.
