Stamping Up - Sand Castle

Summer by the Sea stamp set by Stamping Up was used to stamp the the little boy building a sand castle sketch and the sentiment both stamped with Chocolate Chip ink.
I also used a spriral punch to create the the notebook edges.
This is the second card in a set of 3 cards that I have planned

I used a Kraft coloured base card then cut a smaller cream square.

Using the Chocolate Chip ink I water coloured the image, I used the spiral punch down the edge of theis and 2 other papers one in a dark chocolate colour and the other a sepia script paper then tore all of the edges abd used the ink and sponged all of the papers I then layered it all together before adding the knotted rafia.

Summer by the Sea - Couple

Summer by the Sea stamp set by Stamping Up was used to stamp the couple sketch and the sentiment both stamped with brocade blue ink.

I also used a spriral punch to create the the notebook edge.

This is the first in a set of 3 cards that I have planned

I stamped the white base card with a dandilion stamp in the blue ink then cut a smaller blue square and used the swiss dots embossing folder and ran it through the Cuttlebug using a white ink pad I swiped it over the embossed dots then distressed the edges of the blue square.

Using the blue ink I watercoloured the image and layered it all together before adding the flower decorated with crushed glass glitter.

I used 3 Sakura Flower Punches by Carla and added crushed glass glitter to the edges before layering them on top of each other.

Thank You Card

This is a stationary stamp set from PTI which at some point when I get a moment fully intend starting my own stationary and maybe a couple for gifts.

I made the thank you card by stamping the ornate black circle pattern in black ink then used a Nestabilities die to cut it out I used the next sized die to emboss a circle onto the card.

The red circle with the black pattern stamped on top was cut out the same way as the other one. I used the scalloped Nestabilities circle to cut the black scallop and used this to mat and layer using foam pads to build them up.

I stamped the single image in black ink at either side of the embossed circle on the base card I also added some black gems to the single images and on top of the red stamped circle although they don't show up in the picture they are there.

I finished the card by stamping thank you onto a scrap piece of white card and I used a word slot punch by Stamping Up to cut it out.

Flourished Sympathy Card

With Sympathy stamp set by Papertrey Ink is one of the newly released stamp sets and I have to say it has endless possibilities. I love the flourish and the sentiment.

I stamped the sentiment with versamark and heat embossed using silver pearl embossing powder. Using Encore silver ink I sponged around the dark purple (almost black) base card.

I used the large label Nestabilities dies one for the silver pearl card and the smaler one in white to wich I stamped the sentiment on top in plum pudding ink.

To finish I punched out 2 holes at the side of the card and entwined a plum pudding and a silver ribbon through the holes from the front of the card and crossed them over on the inside then back out through the holes again.
