Soft Seedlings Repurposed

November 20, 2022 Leave a Comment

Almost a month ago I showed you a simple thank you card using the Soft Seedlings Stamp Set. I must admit that I was late to the party with this set and my only regret is not getting it sooner. This is a DistINKtive stamp from Stampin’ Up! which means it stamps with varying areas of light and dark all in one go. What I didn’t say when I made that card was that I’d had an issue with the first background. Today I repurposed part of that original piece. NO SEEDLINGS My original card focused ... VIEW POST

Goodbye Autumn Leaves

October 29, 2022 Leave a Comment

Despite the chill in the air, yesterday turned out to be a very lovely day. We made the most of it by driving to Parrsboro for lunch. Then on our way back we visited the Lighthouse Park at Five Islands. What struck me most was that almost all the leaves have now fallen. Of course we still have the evergreen trees but it’s sad to see the autumn colours gone. So to mark this seasonal milestone I created this project full of warm tones using the Soft Seedlings Stamp Set. I began this simple ... VIEW POST

Soft Autumn Thank You

October 24, 2022 Leave a Comment

My Facebook memory for today was a couple of photos I’d taken four years ago. They were the same view of maple trees in my front yard taken one day apart. I was actually comparing how different the autumn leaves looked as the sun came up versus when the sun was higher in the sky. This memory gave me the spark of an idea for today’s card project. So after pulling out four ink pads along with the Soft Seedlings and Go To Greetings Stamp Sets I quickly got started. SOFT SEEDLINGS START I ... VIEW POST

Create this simple "Thinking of you" card using the Go To Greetings Stamp Set and Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Leaf Fall Embossing

September 15, 2022 Leave a Comment

I must be honest and say that the design of this simple project was only half planned. You see I'd decided to create a "Thinking of you" card and reached for the appropriately named Go To Greetings Stamp Set. However when I opened up the stamp case I found some Basic White Card that had already been stamped with the largest of the Thinking of You sentiments in Tuxedo Black ink. It was obviously meant to be, so with the new Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder I set to work LEAF FALL First I ... VIEW POST

Fern Changing Colours

September 10, 2022 Leave a Comment

As I sat down to create today’s project I had just a very vague idea of what I was doing. All I knew was that I wanted to experiment a little more with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. In previous experiments I’d simply embossed coloured card, which turned out remarkably well. After that I'd inked up some card before embossing the fern design into it, and adding other ink colours afterwards. Today I wanted to see what would happen if I started by embossing Basic White Card before inking ... VIEW POST
