Simply Vintage

Hello my lovely Crafters.  I'm slowly coming back into the land of the living after being ill for what seems like for ever LOL!  Anyway, I'm trying to get back into my routine again and hopefully my brain will rejoin me at some point.
I thought I would share with you the project I was attempting to make 2 1/2 weeks ago on the first day I landed up in my sick bed.  This is such a quick and easy card to make and I am fairly pleased with the result.

The colours used were Soft Suede and Crumb Cake onto Very Vanilla Cardstock.  The background was made using the Very Vintage Jumbo Wheel and the Stamps used were from the FREE Elementary Elegance Stamp Set.  The card was finished using the gorgeous Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die and some elegant Pearls. I hope you like this as much as I do.  I am always grateful to hear your comments. Thank you for dropping by.

More FREE Sale-a-bration!

Hi there! I have made yet another card using the versatile FREE Sale-a-bration DSP and Elementary Elegance Stamp set that I got free with my order over £45. Remember this offer finishes next month, so do place your orders with me soon if you wish to take advantage.

I used my favourite Pool Party colour along with black and Calypso Coral too - it's a lovely colour combination. Hope you like it. See you again tomorrow.

French Elegance

Hi there crafters.  Today's post is scheduled as I'm out day and evening, so thought I'd play safe incase I was home late! 

This simple but elegant card is stamped onto Bashful Blue card with VersaMark Ink and White Stampin' Emboss Powder.  I've used the En Francais stamp and one of the pretty FREE stamps from the Elementary Elegance set which is FREE in the Sale-a-bration if you order Stampin' Up! goods which total over £45.  I adore this set. I've used the Curly Label Punch, some pretty Pearls and  a Whisper White Organza ribbon bow to finish this elegant card off - quick and simple!

Oh... PS - I forgot to say that I edged the stamped and punched images with the White Signo Gel Pen.

I have scheduled another post for tomorrow, just in case I need a day to recover from today. LOL!

Levels 1 - 3

Hi there.  Today I thought it would be good to show the results of Elaine's lesson and will show you this card in three different levels ie. each card has more elements added than the one before.

Level One above

Level Two above

Level Three card above



Aren't they lovely.  I love the Elementary Elegance Stamp Set from the Sale-a-bration offer.  Unfortunately, due to my poor photography, the gorgeous Very Vanilla Velvet Ribbon looks a totally different colour to the lovely creamy colour it actually is.  You can check out the ribbon in the Spring Mini Catalogue. 

Well I'm off to bed for a snooze now as I haven't had enough sleep whilst I was away at Mum's.  She is out of hospital, but they want her to go back in sometime for two days.  She's catching up on her lost sleep now LOL!!! 

See you tomorrow.
