Animal Expedition Age card

Hello everyone,

Well it's a lovely sunny day here in Kent ...at last. 

I am sharing a fun birthday card today that I recently made for my Grandson who had reached the grand age of 7.

I hadn't used the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper much at all but it was just right for this project.

I made a square card which is almost 6"square and layered the fab crocodile paper onto some Tranquil Tide cardstock. I left a gap in the middle for the age and used the Letters For You dies  to cut out the letters in Lemon/Lime Twist and Real Red to give a shadow.

The 'happy birthday' is from the really useful Well Written Framelits Dies. If you pair these with the Well Said Stamp Set you have words for every occasion.

This bundle is in the the current Spring Summer Catalogue and I really hope they carry over into the new Annual catalogue.

Just a mention too that Sale A Bration ends on 31st March 2019 so if you want to take advantage of the free products or the wonderful joining offer ....hurry up! More details are a bit further down.

Happy Stamping

Bloom by Bloom Thank You Cards

Hello, hello,

Been off the radar recently suffering from that horrible flu virus...coughing aching and generally feeling sorry for myself.

While I was getting back on my feet I went away on a short break to celebrate my birthday. had a nice peaceful time and didn't have to cook !!!

So now that my crafty mojo has returned, I have made some Thank You cards for the lovely gifts I received.


Bloom by Bloom Thank You Stampin Up

I made a card base from Crumb Cake cardstock and added a layer with Blueberry Bushel.

The top layer is Very Vanilla. I masked off an area with a post it note and then used the Bloom by Bloom Set to stamp a random pattern with Blueberry Bushel and Soft Suede inks.

A simple card made with minimal supplies, just add the sentiment of your choice.

Happy Stamping
