Experimenting with a Clean and Simple Design

Good afternoon crafty friends.  Hope you are well today and enjoying the cooler weather.

We are off out to the Cinema a little later to see the new Mission Impossible film.  Should be good.

I've been practicing using my Stamping Tool and layered stamps.  I need practice but am seriously enjoying creating this type of card.

It's really nice to have a card ready for me mum's birthday.  I had to strategically place those sequins onto some ink smudges lol.  Told you I need more practice!

Something Different

Good afternoon crafty friends.  I do hope you are all well today and have been having a good summer.

Tomorrow is my 50th birthday.  I can't believe I got to this milestone already!!! Lol.

Although it isn't my birthday yet, I have had some nice surprises.  I got a Tim Holtz stamping platform which I had been wanting since I saw some youtubers using them.  So my lovely fella got one delivered to me!

He even got me a little storage case to keep it in!  Love it!

He also organized friends and family to come and visit me on Saturday.  I knew nothing about this until they all turned up on the doorstep.  I was in complete shock as I hadn't washed my hair, cleaned my house, put make up on etc. etc. lol.  But it was lovely.  He did a really good job keeping this quiet.  We had drinks, food and a damn good laugh!  It was a lovely way to celebrate my 50th (nearly).  I'll never forget it.  They all made me feel so special and I'm so grateful.

I had to experiment with this new present and I used some clearly besotted stamps which I have had for a while and I feel like these platforms were made especially for these layered stamps.

I've been dying to do CAS cards like this for ages and now I feel more confident doing them with my present.

Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge #391 Sponsored by Fred She Said and Sparkle & Sprinkle

Good afternoon crafty friends.  Hope you are well today.

There is a challenge starting over at Penny's Paper-Crafty and the theme is ANYTHING GOES.  Please come along and join in the fun.

Here is my card....

These lovely flowers and butterfly are off a pre-coloured sheet provided by Fred she Said Designs.  I chose to use the blue and yellow but in the set there are many different colourways.  The flowers, leaves and butterflies are also different sizes.  They are great for making really fast cards.  I used a new embossing folder in the background from Apple Blossom, called All Occasions Embossing Folder.  Been wanting one of these for ages!  My sentiment is computer generated.
