Hi there,

Just a quick little post with a card that I made about a month ago using the Something sweet stamp set from the Summer mini catalogue. It is still my fav set out of the book, and i just love using the cups for all sorts of things.

CARD RECIPE:

Stamp set: Something Sweet

Cardstock: Perfect Plum, So Saffron, Rose red, Whisper White, Kaiser printed paper

Inks: Rose Red

Accesories: ribbon, eyelet border punch, 1 3/4 circle punch, large oval punch, small silver brad, one treat cup.

I have filled my cup with some tic tacs. I would have liked to have put in some chocolate, but with the heat we are having up here at the moment that would have been a disaster. The tab at the top of the card is a slider to allow access to the treats inside the cup. There's not much point in having edibles in there if you can't eat them.

For any further help on how to make the card or order any products, please contact me ascorsi@bigpond.com

Sympathy Card

Hi there,

I have been wanting to try out this colour combo and thought that it would make a nice sympathy card. I am so loving the colour kraft at the moment it is the new Chocolate Chip for me. Here is the card recipe;

CARD RECIPE:

Cardstock; Kraft, lovely lilac, very vanilla

Ink; creamy caramel, lovely lilac, chocolate chip

Stamps used; Thoughts and Prayers, Friends 24-7

Punches; Scallop oval, large oval

Accessories; Jamara embossing folder, sponges, half back pearls.

This card was made extra large by simply folding an A4 sheet of Lovely lilac in half, but could be easily scaled down to make a standard A5 size.

Thanks for looking,

A card for you

Hi to all,
Here is a Valentine card that I made for my husband. I know I know, it is a little late to be showing you now but it's better than never. I'm still loving this card even though I've used on it Brilliant Blue (a colour I never usually touch). The background white cardstock is splattered with some brilliant blue and real red reinkers mixed with a little water using a toothbrush. Looks so effective doesn't it. I've used markers for colouring with the blender pens (another technique I haven't used for a while). A few jumbo eyelets for tyres and some crystal effects on the windows
gives the card just a little extra. I like the way the Vintage Label stamp set from the Sale-a-bration catalogue can be used with other verses as well. The real red card behind the truck has first been wet then scrunched and let dry before sticking to card. If you need any further details on making this card please send me an email.

Wedding Card

Hi there everyone,

Just a quick post today to show you a card using one of my favourite stamp sets "Fifth Avenue". I have embossed the rose in white and used watercolour crayons to add the colour.

Cardstock used is Cameo Coral, So Saffron, Chocolate Chip, and Very Vanilla.

The Wide oval punch was used for the frame around Mr. & Mrs. The frame is one from a set called vintage Labels which is available as a free set when you spend $100 this Feb and March. for more information please contact me.

Merry Xmas

I hope everyone a had very merry Xmas and caught up with family and friends. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my Customers and class ladies for their loyal support over the last year. With the New Year almost upon us I am hoping to continue sharing and creating with you even more. It has been a very enjoyable year spending it with my regular class ladies and also having the opportunity to meet more and share my passion for creating with everyone. My blog has been a little sad over the last few months but I promise that keeping up to date with it is on my New Years Resolutions list. I am sending my love to you all over this silly season and will be back on deck in January with new scrapbooking pages and cards. Until then, Cheers! Sharyn
