Good morning everyone!

Its Stamp Review Crew hop time again and for this one we are showcasing the fab new "Sailing Home" bundle.

I initially hadn't planned on purchasing this one, but it has ended up being another new go to fave! It has loads of dies and images for creating lovely nautical scenes, from the super simple to full on elaborate in style!

For my project, l have gone a simple fun fold in black-Smoky Slate-White and a hint of silver for a stepped up effect.

Colour INKspiration #60

Evening all!

I'm back with a new Colour INKspiration share for this weeks hop, using this gorgeous colour palette and combining it with the "Free as a Bird" bundle and my new fave, the Birch background stamp!

I am in love with this colour combination and it was just perfect for the sweet bird images.

Just Add Ink #466...Inspiration!

Happy Friday friends!

This week over at Just Add Ink , Kelly has given us some festive inspiration to create some Christmas in July projects and the cute polka dots and greenery were what caught my attention!

Can you believe we are already closer to this Christmas than the previous one!  155 days to be precise...scary thought hey!

I have used the "Winter Woods" bundle to create the greenery on my project and added a triple stack of "Merry" using the 'Merry Christmas To All" dies.

Just Add Ink #465...Season!

Good morning friends!

We have a fun new challenge over at Just Add Ink and this weeks challenge is to "ADD the SEASON" So wherever we live in this awesome world, we needed to create our projects using the season as our theme!
So with frosty temps in the single digits l created using "Winter" and after a little research, l discovered that Magnolias are a late winter bloom and were therefore perfect for this challenge!

I have inked up the main image from "Good Morning Magnolia", but as the trees are basically bare, l only partially coloured my bloom using the baby oil technique and my Prismacolour pencils.

The rest of team have some fab seasonal projects to share, so make sure you click on the link and take a peek!

Stamp Review Crew...Free as a Bird!

Morning friends!
Over at Stamp Review Crew  we have a new blog hop happening and for this one we are showcasing the gorgeous "Free as a Bird" suite.

For my projects, l have created a card and gift box in a vintage colour palette of Very Vanilla-Pear Pizzazz-Kraft & Calypso coral with a hint of gold for some sparkle.

I am absolutely loving this product suite and have yet to create something l don't like. It's so versatile and can be used for all card styles.

To create my sweet gift box, l used the "Perfect Parcels" dies, it has loads of sweet detailed dies and creates the cutest little gift box with ease.

If you are happily hopping, you would have arrived here from the no doubt gorgeous blog & project of Steesha Bloodhart. She is such a creative and talented crafter and l love everything she shares.
