Garden Blooms

  Hello everyone, I'm finally back after some time off from crafting. It has been a couple of months since my last post & I cannot believe it is Spring already! Wow! Is it just me or has this year gone by really fast? 

You are probably seeing lots of Autumn/Fall cards at the moment but as it is Spring here in Australia,  Rachelle Anne Miller has just released a gorgeous stamp called Garden Blooms. 

Isn't this image just beautiful! It makes me want to go & plant some flowers in my garden!

After colouring the image I die cut top border & created a simple card by layering image raised with foam before I stuck to base.

Scarecrow

Hello everyone, Spring has definitely sprung in Australia & I have truly enjoyed spending quality time in the garden, but more of that in a later post. 

For all my Northern Hemisphere friends it is now Autumn/Fall in your part of the world, which brings me to today's post. Rachelle Anne Miller has a bonus release this month which is an old stamp from the archives with a Fall/Autumn theme called Scarecrow. You may have seen it in the past as a clear stamp, but now it is available for purchase as a digital stamp.

What I love about the Scarecrow stamp is that you are not just limited to using her for Autumn themed projects, so for my card today I have created a pretty Spring themed card. A garden wouldn't be complete without a Scarecrow, right!

 After choosing my pretty paper, (not sure about you but this seems to be the hardest part of the process for me😂), I layered & embellished with die cuts, flowers & flower shaped sprinkles. I penciled in my "Sending Hugs" Sentiment. The Scarecrows frame comes blank, so you can add any wording you wish.

Copic Markers:

Face: E0000, E000, E00, E11, R20

Clothes: BG0000, BG10, BG11, BG13, R81, R83, R85, Y11, Y15, Y18

Lulu Bee

  Hello everyone I am back again today to share some inspiration for the Paper Nest Dolls. With Spring in the air here in Australia I decided to make some Spring insect themed cards in the coming weeks. Today I am sharing a card I made using Lulu Bee. She is such a super sweet image & it wasn't hard to get creative & create a matching card.

I searched the internet & purchased some pretty digi paper from Etsy from a store called Dandelionery. I then just matched it up with Petite Print papers from Doodlebug Design. With my die cuts I was originally going to use matching coloured paper but found that they got lost into the background. Then I decided to use gold cardstock & I just love how it turned out! Made the die cuts pop, not to mention coordinated nicely.

You cannot tell from the photos, but I coloured Lulu's wings & the vellum on the die cut bees with some Wink of Stella to add some shimmer. Then I finished off by embellishing with some pretty flowers!

Keep your eye out for my next post which will feature another adorable Spring garden cutie.

Lulu Bee is available in rubber here & in digital format here.

Supplies:

Stamp: Paper Nest Dolls "Lulu Bee"

Colouring Medium: Copics
