My card features an image from AI – Girlfriends stamp. I made a mask to remove the large cake and party hats from the image when I stamped it.
I die cut the coffee cup using MFT – Dienamics Coffee All Day set. I stamped Gina K designs – A Year of Borders across the cup and copic coloured them. A strip of coloured card was added around the middle stamped with part of a sentiment from Gina K – Whimsical Wildflower Frame stamp set.
After copic colouring the AI image, I added the large coffee cup to replace the cake.
A piece of kraft card (I used some old packaging) was randomly stamped with images from Flourishes – Mix-N-Mugs set, SSS Coffee Hour and stenciled with TCW Mini Well Rounded, then added to the card front and the image panel.
The circle sentiment from SSS – Coffee Hour finished the card.

I am thrilled to have been invited as Guest Designer for the newest challenge over at Time Out. The challenge is “to get you out working in the garden!”
I love the garden, so this is a perfect challenge for me. My thought was a garden trellis with flowers cascading over it. This month’s challenge is sponsored by Altnew, so it was an easy decision on which stamp company to use.
I started by stamping Altnew – Pen Sketched Flowers in Distress Inks and watercolouring them in a mix Distress Inks. They were then fussy cut.
The navy blue card front was stamped randomly with Altnew – Fragile Foliage in white ink.
Altnew – Layered Plaid Cover Die A was cut twice from white card and overlaid to give a more filled in trellis.
The flowers were then added to the trellis – some on top and some woven through it, before being added to the card front.
The sentiment is from Altnew – Inked Lotus set.
I had lots of fun making this one.
I hope you will join in the fun at Time Out. Don’t forget to check out the wonderful creations by the amazing Design Team.

My card this week features Newton’s Nook – Christmas Kittens stamp. I love trying to find different way to use my stamps. It was good to be able to use this one for a different occasion. Just perfect!
After stamping, it was copic coloured and fussy cut.
3D EF from We R Memory Keepers was used to make the background panel, which was added to another panel bordered with copic colour used in the image, before adding the card front.
A strip of coloured card and one of a sparkle tape were added to the front below the cats which were added with raised tape.
The SSS Birthday Die cut and Winnie & Walter – The Party Confetti Cutaway Die cuts were added to finish the card.

I was thrilled that my card was selected for an Honorable Mention over at Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge! Thank you so much to everyone for selecting my card.
My card features PB Slapstick stamp – Demure. I love PB stamps as there are such wonderful images!
I decided to do this card a little differently. Instead of colouring the flowers on the card, I coloured them and added them on top of the image.
To start, stamp once on the card front and once on a piece of scrap card.
The flowers were watercoloured with Distress Inks. The second set of flowers were fussy cut and layered over the card front flowers using raised tape to give a 3D look.
Gold ink was added along with splatters.
The panel was then layered before being added to the card front.
The sentiment is from an old set from the Everyday Greetings stamp company.

Today’s card features an old Hero Arts Poppy stamp, white heat embossed and Distress watercoloured.

The poppy panel was added with raised tape and the sentiment from HA Togetherness Flower Bouquet stamp set was heat embossed over Wild Honey Distress ink.
I love this old stamp.

Using Uniko – ‘You Are, Yes You Are’ stamp set, the flowers and leaves were stamped randomly over a slimline panel.
These were loosely watercoloured using Distress Inks.
Words from the set were again stamped randomly using Brilliance Lightning Black ink.
Pink, green, white and gold was splattered across the panel.
It was then added to the card front, along with a piece cut using MFT Stitch Triple Peek-a-Boo Window & Edge die cut.
The larger sentiment comes from an old set which might be from PB, but not sure and the ‘You Are’ from the stamp set. Both stamped in the Brilliance ink.
