Floral Gem

Hi all!

I'm reorganizing my stamp sets in my craft room and while taking a break I made this card based on the sketch of Cas(e) This Sketch #344.

I used to store my stamps in DVD cases but recently I started moving them to Avery Elle Storage Pockets since my stamp collection keeps growing :)

How do you store your stamps?

Maple Leaf

Hi all!

Today I made another autumn card with the Grand Maple Frame die from Memory Box and some Nuvo Shimmer Powders.

I first die cut the Maple Leaf from a piece of white cardstock. Then I used some Nuvo Shimmer Powders on another piece of cardstock to create the background. When I added the white maple leaf on top of this background I thought it was better to give the outer circle also some color so I used the same Nuvo Shimmer powders for this frame and added this on top. Now it also has some dimension.

Finally I stamped the sentiment with Altenew Echanted Gold pigment ink and used foam tape to adhere it.

Party Pals

Hi all!

This card I made for my husband's godchild who's turning 3 next weekend.


I first did some color blending in the background with Altenew inks. 
Next I colored the critters from Avery Elle with Copic markers and used the coordinating dies.
The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
