Another layered stamping card

I really love all these stamps that companies are releasing that allow multi-layered stamping.  I made this one using Hero Arts "Color Layering Butterflies" and "Stamp and Cut Happy", with a few pink Hero Arts shadow inks.

 I'll be submitting this card to Virginia's View challenge - 100% stamped!

I'm also joining in with the CAS challenge at A2Z Scrapbooking.

Another one layer birthday card

I wanted to make another card for Virginia's View "100% stamped" challenge, but a bit more colourful this time. So I did!

I started with some Papertrey Ink white cardstock.  I used My Favorite Things "Written in Watercolor" for the sentiment, which is stamped in Smokey Grey Versafine ink. I then used Wplus9's  "Fresh Cut Florals" with a heap of different Hero Arts shadow inks.  The finishing touch was some Star Dust Stickles in the middle of all the flowers.

Layered flowers for Virginia's View

The latest challenge at Virginia's View is right up my alley!  It is 100% stamping!

I used the Flower Patch clear set from Stampin' Up, with Color Box Frost White pigment ink, then three different Hero Arts shadow inks stamped over the top (Soft Cantaloupe, Butter Bar, and Bubblegum).  The sentiment is stamped in Versafine Vintage Sepia. (I was planning on adding some green ink over the leaves, but I decided I liked them white!)

Lawnscaping Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Lawnscaping blog hop!   I hope you've just come from Anni's blog - I love her cardmaking style!

The theme is Lawnscaping+caffeine=happiness! Here's what I came up with:

For the main coloured panel, I used the "Stitched Hillside Borders" dies from Lawn Fawn, and the "Stitched Mats: Squares" die from Lil' Inkers, along with the "Morning Cup" stamp set from Stampin' Up.  I used a couple of Copic markers to colour the mug, and then covered it in Glossy Accents. The coloured cardstock is all from my stash of offcuts, and I added some enamel dots as a finishing touch. 

A  big HUGE thank you to our amazing sponsors,  Lawn Fawn, Ellen Hutson, The Ink Road, Crafters Companion, Spectrum Noir, The Alley Way Stamps, Newtons Nook, Faber Castell and Right at Home!  And a big thanks also go to Laurel Beard, who has organised this blog hop - awesome job! 

We'd love it if you left a comment at each of the stops on the hop - because there are prizes to be won! YAY!  

Now, make sure you continue along on the hop - your next stop is Lydia's blog - I can't wait to see what she has created!  If you get lost at any stage, here's a list of the hoppers!

A rainbow birthday for Avery Elle

I managed to sneak a few minutes today to make a last minute entry to the Avery Elle Rainbow Challenge.

 I used Avery Elle sets "So Happy" and "Fanfare", and  I used 10 different Hero Arts shadow inks, plus Memento Tuxedo Black for the sentiment.  The tag die is from Reverse Confetti, and the "happy" die is from Clearly Besotted. The twine is from Darice, and the sequins from Simon Says Stamp. 

Simon Says Stamp also has an "Anything Goes" theme this week, so I'll be sharing this card there, too!
