Inky Wreath Card using Imagione Design Create Mistletoe Kisses Stamps, Distress Oxides and Nuvo Brush Script Pen

Hi Everyone,

Here is what I've made this week using the super cute Mistletoe Kisses stamps from Imagine Design Create. I wanted to stamp a cute wreath and add in some hand drawn swirls and inky dots.


I used two different green Distress Oxides: Lucky Clover and Peacock Feathers to stamp the wreath, along with Salty Ocean for the sentiment and dots. The brown hand drawn swirls are made using the brown Tonic Nuvo Brush Script Pen (Essential Tones) and some water brushed over top.




A simple and inky card! The original blog post can be found here!

Little Claire Designs Card using Paws for Thought Stamps

Good Morning!

 Today I am sharing my Little Claire Designs card using the super cute Paws for Thought stamp set. I fell in love with this tanquil scene and enjoyed creating my own backing paper using the branch stamps on the purple card.


I used my Distress Oxides to colour the stamped image and added some tiny Nuvo pearl drops to the background.

Thanks for looking,

Cute Mini Christmas Card using Solid and Nesting Star Stamps by Imagine Design Create

Hello Everyone,

Today I am sharing a card using two of my favourite stamp sets Solid Stars and Nesting Stars by Imagine Design Create. I made this cute small 4" x 4" card.


I stamped the music star and greeting across the green background and then added some torn paper for texture. 


I stamped one of the nesting stars onto red card and fussy cut out, adding the greeting stamped onto green (cut out with a fine liner border) and a twine bow to finish.

Ribbon Threaded Circle Card using Crafty Ribbons Seam Binding and Satin Ribbon

Good Morning Everyone! 

Today I am sharing a simple Design Team card I made using the pretty Seam Binding Ribbon in Tea Rose and 3mm Satin Ribbon in Hyacinth and my Ribbon Threader Die for Crafty Ribbons. The original post can be found here


The Ribbon Threader Die is by John Next Door and I just had a play with weaving and twisting the ribbon until I was happy with the look.




I added the purple ribbon in for extra colour and to tie in with the background paper is from the Retro Blooms collection by Trimcraft. For the bow I tied two triple bows and added in a Basics 2 Go Heart Button for the centre.

Christmas Kraft Card using Deck the Halls Stamps and Distress Oxides for Imagine Design Create

Hello Everyone!

Today I am showing you one of my Christmas cards I have been working on using the awsome stamps Deck the Halls by Imagine Design Create.


I love using kraft card for Christmas for that rustic feel. I stamped the wording and baubles in Onyx Black Versafine Ink and coloured with my Tonic Nuvo Aqua Flow Water Brush, Candied Apple and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide ink.


This stamp set is so much fun and I used the bauble in the Noel wording to create the larger hanging baubles! To finish I added a fine liner border and layered onto red card.
