A couple more for Mother’s Day…

Hello

I am sharing a few cards I have made for a stall I will have at the Mother’s Day Artisan Market at Sussex Street Neighbourhood house here or here.

This first one if for the mum who is a tea drinker.

I have teamed Jane’s Doodles Tearrific with ABS Designer flowers and coloured with alcohol markers.

And for the mum who likes coffee Jane’s Doodles Coffee Time with ABS Designer Flowers. A little masking this time and again coloured with Alcohol markers. I was lucky enough to win the Jane’s Doodles Coffee time stamp set from SRM recently.

What do you prefer? Coffee or Tea?

For me I have cut down to usually one coffee per day and almost no black tea (I use to drink a lot of both) to drinking green teas and herbal infusions. Ms E (20) and I have a dedicated tea shelf. And don’t ask how many pots or infusers we have!

Lastly this one

Using ABS Designer Flowers and Hero Arts Be Happy.

Enjoy your weekend.

Cheers

Flowers for Mother’s Day…

Hello

Today I am sharing a Mother’s Day card.

I am linking up to the following challenges

Scrapbook Boutique – April mood board here

and

Spring Flowers // April showers at Eclectic Ellapu here

I used images from MFT Contemporary Roses, PTI Beautiful Blooms II and ABS Designer Flowers stamped with my colorbox Que inks. These inks haven’t been used for a while so I was surprised that they were still rather juicy. I also used SU pretty in pink for the roses and Momento Luxe for the sentiment. The panel was mounted onto pink cardstock and then all added to the card base. Finished with a little sprinkling of sequins.

While I had out ABS Designer Flowers I made a second card. Will share that one later.

Thanks for stopping

Cheers

Showing Annabelle some ink…

Hello

Hope your week is going well.

We are heading into the last week of netball. Ms 19 & Ms 15’s team have made the Grand Final this coming weekend.

Very exciting. I have to keep telling myself it is just another game! It is a great achievement for the team. Last season the team only won one game for the entire season and this year Grand Finalists.

Anyway I am sure you didn’t stop by to hear about netball

Today I am sharing a card I made using Annabelle Stamps Designer Flower and co ordinating die. The flowers are stamped in MFT snow cone ink and SU So Saffron. The background was embossed with SU Modern Mosaic EF and the leaves were die cut using CC Designs Leafy Branch.

A late Mother’s Day share…

Hello

Today I am sharing the Mother’s Day card I made for my Gran. A little late. I didn’t get a chance to visit Gran until late last week. Gran has become forgetful so she didn’t notice I was a few days late. It can be rather funny some days to explain who you are!

I am linking up to challenge #44 at Scribble & Scrap here

I used Annabelle Stamps Designer Flowers, Stemmed Flowers (leaf) and Butterfly Sunshine (sentiment). The inks I used were SU Smoky slate, Lucky Limeade, Daffodil Delight and Tim Holtz Abandoned coral (reinker + uninked pad). The sentiment is also from Annabelle Stamps Designer Flowers stamped in Memento Tuxedo black and die cut with Inspired by Stamping Fancy Label Dies 3 and PTI oval limitless layers dies.
