Today I'm sharing Gill's creations using the oh so popular ladies from the Beautiful You stamp set. The cards also feature the fab new watercolour pencils from the stampin' Up! Spring summer catalogue and show how even though the pencils are from the bright family they can work well with the softer tones of the subtle colour ways too

RAK.....
Today's inspiration is provided by the lovely Kim Fee. She very kindly sent me this card as a RAK, that's a ranom act of kindness 😊
This beautiful card highlights how you can use papers to "colour" your stamped image. It's a technique called paper piecing and it's one of my favourites.

So today's inspiration is provided by some of the lovely ladies who go to our regular class in Burgess Hill. Gill has been rather poorly so the lovely girlies made this lovely card and gift for her ☺

love notes.....
This weeks inspiration features the beautiful colour Elegant Eggplant.
Today I've teamed it up with other shades of purple from the pale wisteria wonder to the bright rich razzleberry and the perfect plum.
I stuck strips of coloured card onto whisper white card then put it through the big shot with the new texture impressions embossing folder from the 2017 spring summer catalogue from Stampin' Up! called Falling Petals.

Then the inside....
Here's a close up of the sentiment the front of the card. I used my trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig to create a ghosted impression to add a little impact and variety
It looks better in real life! Honest!
Well that's it for this blog hop post please hop on over to the lovely Hannah's blog for even more Sale-A-Bration goodness here
Have fun

waste not want not thank you....
Today's sample is what I call a table scrap card! What that means is that I'm a hoarder and can't bear to through a scrap of pattern paper away! lol These bits and pieces stay on the edge of my workspace and I often end up fiddling with them until I'm inspired!
Hope you like this one and maybe feel inspired to use some of your scraps too.
