Weekly Inspiration - Sprinkles Of Life

Well! How do I follow that?
 When Cary says dusting off the iron.....she REALLY means it!
I am VERY impressed. 
Well done Cary.
Some beautiful projects last week as always.
Anyway, this week I have been working with Sprinkles of Life.
For every stamp set sold, Stampin' Up! send £2 to 
RONALD McDONALD HOUSE CHARITIES. (RMHC)
RMHC keep families together and surrounded by love when their children are receiving medical treatment far from home.
Stampin'Up!#SPRINKLES OF LIFE.
This the first of the projects for this week.
I like to show that a card or project doesn't need to be elaborate to be effective.
For this simple card I used the cloud stamp and stamped multiple times over 
Very Vanilla to make the top mat.
 I Die cut circles and ovals and stuck the tree and leaves on the top mat then fixed the layers                  with a candy dot brad.
I used a circle punch and corner rounder for the corners of the card and mats
I hope that this has inspired you in some way.
Please pop by tomorrow and see what else I managed to make.

Weekly Inspiration

Thursday's Blackberry Bliss


This card was made using the Timeless Elegance Designer Series Paper. LOVE IT!
In my opinion it's one of the most beautiful designs EVER!
The papers are all very neutral and on a Very Vanilla background with Basic Black or Sahara Sand to produce the images. 
12 sheets of 12" by 12" double sided papers. A bargain at £10 and they go a very long way.
Anyway, I sponged Blackberry Bliss over the whole image and more over the actual flowers to make them stand out. Just a simple message from You're So Lovely stamp set and the Curvy Corner Trio Punch to finish off.

Weekly Inspiration

Wednesday's Blackberry Bliss


This one is completely 'out of the box' for me! Those who know me KNOW
 that I don't do 'grungy' designs!
I used a few stamps from Gorgeous Grunge set on Very Vanilla. Using Lost Lagoon, Blackberry Bliss and Tangelo Twist ink pads and Rich Razzleberry Washi tape from the Bohemian Designer range. This was matted onto Blackberry Bliss and a Very Vanilla card base.

The message is from The Sky is The Limit, one of the FREE stamp sets you can choose when you spend £45 with Stampin' Up! during Saleabration from 1st January to 31st March. This is one of the stamp sets which is only with us until 15th February when it will be replaced by new products.
