New Stamps...

After having a little spend up last week with my birthday money, I decided to buy another couple of cute Penny Black stamps. I couldn't resist those hedgehogs so I bought a number of different golf themed images as these are handy for male cards.

Along with some Stampin' Up! cardstock, oval punches and ribbons, and playing around with "Basic Phrases" stamp set, I was able to play on words and create "Fore You". Here's what I created:

Stampin' Up! cardstock, ink and ribbons used are Regal Rose, Night of Navy and Ballet Blue. I love how the debossed side of the Cuttlebug - Swiss Dots closely replicates the surface of a golf ball.

Bye for now,

Alex

Friday again!

Hello people,

It's been another busy week here and the sun is shining :) Thought I'd upload a few more cards that I have been working on from the weekend.

After liking the scallop dresses and getting the hang of how to make these, I made a few more:

After making the Certainly Celery card the other day and uploaded it, I experimented with the oval punches and a sentiment for this one. I'm undecided whether it needs this or not, so made all the other ones without! lol.

Hope you like,

Alex

Happy Birthday

Hi all,

Just wanted to post the card I've been working on this morning. I've seen so many of these cute dresses online that I decided to have a go myself with a matching bag. I used my trusty Nestabilities to create the scallop circle onto the much loved Certainly Celery Designer Series Paper. At the bottom, using a number of different Stampin' Up! punches, I have created a matching bag.

Hope you like:


Have a great day.

Alex
