Hello everyone ☺️ I’m so excited to share my finished card with you that I will be entering into this years Superstar contest over at My Favorite Things. I’ve seen so many amazing creations over the last week that it’s going to be a tough one. Good luck everyone! As you may know, if you’ve been following my blog or my process over on the MFT FB page then you will know how much I love to create scenes and coloured pencils. The sets from MFT are so versatile that I even took the little lad with the kitten and changed him to fit in with my scene. All you need is imagination. I hope you like today’s card. A list of supplies and links can be found below. Happy crafting! X

Beth Duff Designs Blog Hop Collaboration – London Set

All Cards, Birthday Cards, blog Hop, Faber - Castell Polychromo Pencils, Kraft Card, Male Cards, Polychromo Pencils, Witt & Sass 6 Comments

Hello everyone 🙂 Happy Friday. Today I’m going to be joining Beth Duff and her team for their super exciting blog hop. I really hope you can join us. My card for today features the Adventures Abroad – London set and also the sentiment set – Fabulously Gobsmacked from Witt & Sass. I will leave all the links for where you can purchase these if you haven’t already ;-). I have done a super simple design today just using one element from the set which is the London bus. Anything that doesn’t involve human characters takes me right out of my comfort zone so if you feel that you really like a stamp set but it’s not within your zone then you can always select smaller elements to create with and still make super fun cards. I have used Neenah Desert Storm and coloured them with my FC Polychromo pencils, really simple colouring. The sentiment that I have used is taken from the Fabulously Gobsmacked set and I have embossed it on some vellum with white embossing power. Supplies can be found below. I hope you hop over and see what the rest of the team has created. Happy crafting! X

Sentiment Stamps Release – Fabulously Gobsmacked & Keepin it Real sentiment sets!

All Cards, Faber - Castell Polychromo Pencils, Kraft Card, Polychromo Pencils, Sympathy Cards, Witt & Sass Leave a comment

Hello everyone 🙂 I’m so exited to share a project with you today using the new release from Witt & Sass – Sentiments. There are 4 sets: Fabulously Gobsmacked and 3 new sets from the line ‘Keepin it Real’. These include ‘Friends’, ‘Loss’ and ‘Thank you’. This new line focuses on saying what it is you really want to say to the recipient or what you think they need to hear. There are some beautiful sentiments in these sets and you can combined them with your other Witt & Sass sets. Today I have combined them with a set from the last release called You are Beautiful. These flowers are so super sweet you can use them in so many ways. I have stamped the sentiments in the centre as my focus and then added the flowers to frame them. I coloured them with my Faber-Castell Polychromo pencils on Neenah Desert Storm and then added a bit of glitter from my Wink of Stella clear glitter brush pen. So pretty. A list of supplies can be found below as well as links to the W&S shop. I can’t wait to see what you create. Happy crafting! X
