Change around

Isn't it amazing how different cards look when you change around the colours? Whether it be the colour of the cardstock, or the inks, or the ribbon - the effect can be so different to the original.
Today is the same design card as yesterday, but I have instead used Pretty in Pink Cardstock, Black embossing powder and coloured in with a white ink Sigmo Gel pen.
Totally different!!

More February thank you cards

I am getting later posting on my blog these days, but it's cos I am so busy.
Played golf again today - until it rained of course, but we had finished our game by that time!
Here is another of my February thank you cards for my Stampin Up customers - I like to give them a card just to say thank you for their orders (I don't write on it and then they can use it themselves!)
This is a very clean and simple design using the frame once again from the SAB Elementary Elegance and the corner design is the filigree stamp from Creative Elements. Colour Combo is Very Vanilla, Gold, Old Olive and Cajun Craze.
I punched out a Curly label in Old Olive CS and stamped the sentiment on in Cajun Craze.
I embossed in gold both the frame and the corner designs, then coloured in using the blender pens. Voila!!

Another Elementary Elegance

After playing with this SAB stamp-set yesterday, I picked it up again today and tried another of my favourite colour combinations - Basic Black and Pink Pirouette
The motif that the flowers sit in is from Creative Elements and i have used versamark with Melon Mambo EP for both this and the frame.
Little butterflies cut with the Beautiful Wings embosslits and the fringed flowers are finished off with a pink pearl stamen from my stash.

Elementary Elegance

The inspiration for this card came from one that I saw on my SU sister - Sarah-Jane's blog here
I decided to make it in a colour combo of Soft Suede, Gold and Pink Pirouette - although you might be forgiven for doubting that! The colours have not shown up very well at all.
The stamp-set used is from the Sale-a-bration set Elementary Elegance, and the punch is the Lace Ribbon Border - which has gold Mirri card (non SU) behind it. The butterflies are cut from gold mirri card also, using the Beautiful Wings Embosslit die. The frame is embossed with Versamark ink and gold embossing powder, as is the sentiment. The frame is then punched out using the Curly Label Punch.

Elementary Elegance

If you are wondering what these Sale-a-bration stamps and papers look like made up, here are a couple of cards that we made at our Training Day earlier this month.
The SAB stamp set is Elementary Elegance, with a base card of Calypso Coral, a touch of Pool Party and Crumb Cake cardstock and of course the beautiful Calypso Coral Ruffled Ribbon. The second card also features the Everyday Enchantment DSP and a lovely Designer Printed Brad
