One of the other projects we did in club last month was using Watercolour paper, colouring our stamps and spritzing them before stamping ... this little card is one of my samples.
Stamps used are from the Stampin Up set 'Because I care set and 'French Foliage'..I made my card using a Spellbinders die ...also used is the Stampin Up Fan embossing folder..

One of our projects in last months Craft Club was the letter press technique...this is a technique where you ink the embossing folder before putting your card inside...it depends which side of the embossing folder you ink up as to effect you get... on this card I wanted the flowers coloured.
I've used one of the Wee pre-coloured image from the Silver Fairy collection,
also used is the Sue Wilson Lattice heart embossing folder...just added a little bit of lace..a really quick and effective card.

Yesterday my friend and I spent playing and one of the things we did was to make a Christmas card with the lovely Stampendous Snowy Scene stamp...
Keeping the cards very simple.. I used S.U backing papers, stamped the image twice and cut out and 3D the middle and also 3D the holly...
The vintage look card hasn't photgrahed well as the backing papers are gold and brown....
Its really too hot to craft today but need to get on with next months samples for our craft club...
Hope the sun is shining where you are...

Sorry I wasn't around last week but spent a lovely week in Brixham and what fabulous weather we had wall to wall sunshine....
Why do we save such small snippets of card and paper???
Well had a light bulb moment when trying to use my circles snippets of card...I've missed the Snippets challenge for a couple of weeks but this is my card for this weeks Snippets Challenge... circles of embossed card what could be quicker..computer generated sentiments...

Where do the weeks go I cant believe its almost week since I last posted and sadly I missed the snippets challenge as well....
This image is from a book of printed artwork by Kevin Walsh called 'Out & About'...there are some fabulous images all from bygone years and ideal for mens cards and you can 3D them if you wish which is what I have done here but bearing in mind the cost of postage keeping it flat enough to go normal postage.
I've used Couture Creations cogs embossing folder and the paper was a scrap piece found in my snippets box....
I'm not going to be around much next week but will try and get at least one card made...
Have a great weekend....
Anne
