    Dot Colouring practice | SSS May Card Kit

    May 17, 2019

    Hi friends Today I took some time to play with the Simon Says Stamp May card kit which I absolutely love. The beautiful pattern papers and the floral stamp set are truly a joy for me and make creating so easy. Over on Instagram one of the talented card makers that I follow is Alex Syberia and she has been challenging us to dot colouring with our alcohol markers. So today’s card is totally out of my comfort zone and using a technique that I obviously need a lot more practice with, but I am really excited to keep working with this technique as I absolutely love Alex’s cards. The…

    GD Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge – Die Cutting

    March 2, 2018

    I am extremely honoured and excited to be a guest designer for the next two weeks in the Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge. The current challenge #92 is Die Cutting. There are so many fun techniques you can do with dies. I had so much fun that I made four cards. 1. This example uses a die in the traditional way, First of all I used the fabulous Kind Flowers stamp set. There are so many wonderful sentiments that I used a number of them to create a tone on tone card base using Rangers archival black ink onto a side folding black cardbase. Next I used stamped the Kind…

    Rainbow clouds

    June 27, 2017

    Hey everyone Todays card is to cheer you up.  It’s grey and drizzly here in N.E Scotland today (even tho its summer) and so I thought a rainbow of colours was appropriate. I used two Simon Says Stamp Love makes a home cloud dies to create my own stencil and then used clarity brushes and distress inks to create my background. I trimmed it down and added to a minty cardbase. I stamped the SSS Happy Days kite with distress inks again in a rainbow assortment and fussy cut it out.  I then adhered everything together with some foam tape and a dash of clear wink of Stella. I just…

    Gold watercolour wedding card using Simon Says Stamp

    January 28, 2017

    Hey lovelies. I have made lots of cards with the fabulous spring flowers set by Simon Says Stamp and I’m still not fed up of it.  Hope you are still enjoying the cards too! Today’s card combined some of my favourite techniques – heat embossing and then watercolouring with the gold and pearlescent colours from my gansai tambi paints.  I die cut my new spellbinders nest-abilities basic hearts in gold and white paper, used my mini Misti to stamp all the sentiments and then assembled the card.  The sentiments are by Mama Elephant. (Links below) Don’t you just love the pearlescent shimmeryness on those flowers! I am entering this card…
