Small bloom punch clean and simple card

Hi everyone,

I'm back today with a very clean and simple little card made with the Small Bloom Punch - one of the items which is available for FREE during Saleabration - just place an order of the qualifying amount (£90 for the punch but there are lots of other items available with orders of just £45).

I just love this simple little card - so quick and easy but so effective.

I started out by using Granny Apple Green card stock for the stitched squares behind the daisies. Then just punched the daisies out of Whisper White.

Can you guess what I used for the little yellow middles of my daisies? You'll have to watch my video to find out - I am such a tease!!

As usual, when making the card for the video I changed it up a bit. This time I swapped the colour of the stitched squares to Coastal Cabana. And I love this version even more!

I think this version of the card will soon be winging its way to my niece - her birthday is 3rd February. Happy Birthday Lizzie! Hope she likes it!

Thought Blooms card No 2 - a pastel rainbow

Hi there,

As promised, I'm back today to bring you some photos of the Thoughtful Blooms rainbow card I showed you on Sunday, but today it is in alternative colours. 
A pastel rainbow, using colours from our Subtles colour family.

Our colour families make it so easy to make cards like this as all our colours time with each other so well, especially if you work within the same family.

What is so great too, is that you can use our blends to colour the pearls in the centre of the flowers so that they coordinate perfectly. Here are the Stampin' Blends I used.

Back soon with more inspiration.

Thoughtful Blooms card no 3 - video tutorial

Hi everyone,

I hope you've been enjoying my posts recently, featuring cards made with the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set and the Small Bloom punch - both available FREE when you place a qualifying order. On Saturday, I took part in a blog hop where the theme was "Birthdays". This was the card I showed:

I have made a video to show you how I made my card. As usual I made the second card in different colours. This time I used Mint Macaron, Blushing Bride and Flirty Flamingo as the main colours. Here is the video. Watch it by CLICKING HERE or by clicking on the image below.

                                   


And here are some photos of the card I make on the video.

I love that scalloped panel - it is from the Stitched So Sweetly die set.

And here are the two cards together - I wonder which one you like best?
