For the first day of Christmas countdown...

Hello... long time no blogging :)  But I do hope that will change.  I took this photo of my rose in the frost, isn't it beautiful.  I really wanted to share it with you.

... And now for some cards.  I thought it would be a novel way to see out the end of the year by bringing to you a card for each of the twelve days of Christmas.  I do hope you like them as I have been so busy creating them.

So here is the first one.  I have used stampin up's Dasher as a black silhouette on a lovely background that was created using the inkdusters, I've not quite got to grips with the brayer yet!

Thank you for stopping by and hope to see you tomorrow X x

Even more lovely than a tree

This is a workshop that we did recently using the stamp set lovely as a tree and ink duster brushes.  The cards themselves were simple and clean in design with a little matting and layering and stamping to show off the lovely effects that can be created using our fabulous range of inks.
The trees are all stamped using black, other colours we used were cherry cobbler which gives this gorgeous red pink colour when combined with so saffron. 


We had great fun tearing our mountains and valley's!  The sun was created using our large circle punch and a sticky note, we used the hole that was punched out to ink through above the mountains and  inked around the circle on the other cards to give a different look. 
Colours used for the oak tree background were again so saffron, cajun craze, cherry cobbler and a light smudging of black ink to the bottom corners.



We have used pocket silhouettes to stamp around the edge of this card and lighter colours,pacific point and certainly celery to give this card a sunny feel.
I really hope that you like the cards, I am really proud of the cards that were made on that day, they all looked beautiful:) 
I have a repeat of this workshop on Saturday July 9th if you would like to try out the ink dusters.
Thank you for looking, I hope that I have inspired you to use this lovely stamp set. X x
