Age Awareness

Hi everyone,

Don't freak out! Yes two posts in two days! Don't get used to it though! I have to say I have been enjoying spending some time crafting because I can. Whilst I do enjoy making the hundreds of mothers day and fathers day cards that I do for school, by the time I finish them I am completely over it all.

The set that I used today is one that I just had to have, but then I didn't really know what to do with it. It has all these cute sayings such as "I remembered your birthday" and "thanks Facebook!", so this set has a lot of potential. I just stuck to a basic layout for all four cards, so it could be used quite easily for a Stamp a Stack.

I stuck with the colours from the Moonlight DSP paper stack - which is such a bargain at just $11.95 for 48 sheets of 11.4cm X 16.5cm DSP. The colours are Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Sahara Sand, Basic Grey and Whisper White.

Whilst I had the stamp set out I thought I would have a play with just girly colours and this is what I came up with.

As Age Awareness is a photopolymer set, it was wonderful not having to worry about using the Stamp-a-ma-jig to ensure that  my images were stamped correctly. Colours used are Coastal Cabana, Pink Pirouette, Strawberry Slush and Melon Mambo. The little pearls have been coloured in using Coastal Cabana Blendabilities.

Blended Bloom

Hi everyone,

I have finally plucked up the courage to have a play with the Stampin' Blendabilities. Oh my goodness they are a lot of fun! As a kid I loved colouring in using texta's, pencils and the like, but I was never confident with blending. I'm still not, but I'm glad I finally had a go with the Blendabilities.

Naturally I had to use Blended Bloom which is just perfect to use with the Blendabilities. I started off making a birthday card for one of DD10 many friends who are having birthdays in the coming couple of months.

I also made a tag to go on the present bag. This one is Rich Razzleberry.

Then I had to go and have a play with the other colours that I have purchased and as I am always short of birthday cards I decided to make a few more.

The remaining colours are Daffodil Delight, Cherry Cobbler, Coastal Cabana and Pumpkin Pie. I am thinking that I will have to order the remaining colours.

Thanks for looking.

'Til next time,

Juliette
