Welcome Cutie with Woolly Friends focal point

Did you get your hands on this adorable punch? The Woolly Friends Bundle with coordinating stamp set and punch, is a hot, hot, hot commodity. Currently not available - I'm so sorry! - but you need to see how cute it is. Coming back in stock around April 20. Another option for this card layout is any "critter" of your choice from your stash. Love the softness of the ribbon behind the To The Point punched shape (embossed!) and a simple greeting. Topping up my baby card stash and this one's on the top of the list! Enjoy!

Gears and Textures Grunge Card

I was really drawn to the Gears and Textures bundle as I work with engineers in my day job. This bundle will be my new go-to bundle for their birthday cards this year! I also love the grunge look of the stamps included and how these will go with many other stamp sets in my stash: Trusty Tools, Ready Set Go and Geared Up Garage (retired). On this card, I did some partial heat embossing where the copper lands on parts of the gears. A torn edge really adds to the grunge look. Enjoy!

Welcome Baby Card with Woolly Friends

A welcome baby card! Always love having these on hand for when a new arrival is being announced! Something about being a mum and a grandma - we always love to pick up baby gifts. In fact my daughter made me some fabulous crinkle tag blankets to have on hand to which I add a book for new parents and grandparents. Such exciting news! This card can be done in any colour that suits your gift.

Step up your Embossed Layer

Stunning Team Make 'n Take card from our social this month. Lots of texture and dimension achieved by adhering the 4 strips (yes I did an interlocking pattern!) to Basic White and then embossing the whole piece. Just needed a little greeting and some sweet embellishments at the bottom in these pretty shades of blue: Secret Sea, Misty Moonlight, and Cloud Cover.

Blending Brush Technique with Sunshine & Tulips

Here's another way to use the Sunshine & Tulips die. Using a blending brush, I added colour onto a Basic White layer that fit right behind the Old Olive (green) die cut. When running the Old Olive cardstock with the large die through your die cutting machine, the tulips will be popped out. This layers perfectly over the blending brush layer to reveal some pretty Strawberry Slush flowers. You might wonder, why didn't she just use a piece of Strawberry Slush cardstock? I wanted a lighter tone that went well with the colour palette and had depth and dimension from the blending brush step.
