Inked Botanicals

 The Inked Botanicals suite is one that didn't really grab my attention when I first saw it in the 2023/24 Annual Catalogue. I thought it was pretty, but nothing special. Then, of course, I quickly changed my mind after spending some time creating with it. So many pretty possibilities! Check out some of the projects I created this week using this suite...

The first three cards use various ink techniques, including emboss resist, blurred watercolour and ink blending. The images in this stamp set really lend themselves well to various techniques and it was fun to get messy!

The final three cards are the ones I demonstrated in this week's Facebook Live. You can catch the replay on my YouTube channel or by clicking the link below. All of the measurements for all three projects are included in the video description on YouTube for easy crafting along. 

Thanks for stopping by this week...make it a great day!

Zoo Crew

 The Zoo Crew Suite was another must-have when I first made my new catalogue wish list. Who can resist adorable critters doing everything from knitting to unicycling to playing in a band?? There is truly something in this suite for every interest and age, making it super-versatile. This week I featured it on my social media feeds and even made a fun reel showing how to make three super-quick and easy cards using images from the Designer Paper. Check out the suite below:

And here are just a few of the MANY cards I've made with it...

The last three cards pictured above are the ones I made during this week's Facebook Live. The replay is posted on my YouTube channel, along with all of the measurements in the video description. Check it out...

Gone Fishing

 When I first laid eyes on the Gone Fishing suite in the 2023/24 Annual Catalogue, I immediately thought of my mom. She is an amazing fisherwoman and I knew I had to have it to make cards for her. My nephew has also learned the tricks of the trade from my mom and spends every summer evening at Grammy's by the water with a pole in hand. There's even a friendly competition to see who can land the biggest fish each summer. I had great fun playing with this amazing suite and hope you enjoy these ideas to inspire your own creativity...

There is so much amazing detail in this suite...especially the dies! I had such fun creating different types of fishing tackle, not only to put in the die-cut tackle box, but also for my fishing vest. The last three cards pictured above are ones I make in my Facebook Live...you can check it out below. All of the measurements for each project are included in the video description on YouTube for easy, one-stop inspiration. Enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by this week...happy stamping!
