Fiddly dies for a birthday

I really like using my Big Shot for cutting out and embossing card making bits and bobs. The die I've used for today's card comes from the Hello You thinlits die from Stampin' Up! which I found very fiddly to use until I had tried it a few times.

Lotus Blossom card ideas

I absolutely love the Lotus Blossom stamp set from Stampin' Up!, although I did find it a little fiddly to work out the colour combo's and deal with stamping off the ink for some of the images.

This 3 layered stamp can be inked in so many colours to create lovely flowers - I stuck with Rose Red and Pink Pirouette, although they are retired colours, they still look great.

Mothers Day 2015

Honestly, I've been rubbish at keeping my craft blog up to date!

Today, I was reminded to share a card with you... as it's Mothers Day...

I've used the Circle Card thinlits die from Stampin' Up! for the base, cut from Crumbcake card and then featured the Beautiful Butterflies dies.

Little houses

A quick card with little houses for a new home. I went with Tempting Turquoise and Whisper White colours, but any combination will work...

2015 Valentines

So although I don't really celebrate Valentines Day, I couldn't resist making a card with my reasonably new Thinlits Circle Card for from Stampin' Up!

I love the little die cuts that feature with the main card template...

I've used a couple of Stampin' Up! Stamp sets too... Here the opened card..

Happy Heart Day!
