I luurrvve Inkadinkado!

I made these cards for friends at work.  Don't you just love these stamps ... each time I use them, I can see something different.

                                     

 For both cards, I used my Brayer and Big & Juicy ink pad to create the backing papers and I also brayered over embossed card.  The linen texture of the card creates an interesting background.

I stamped and embossed both images and painted them with a paintbrush and the same Big & Juicy ink pad.

I decided not to go over the top with embellishments, as I didn't want to take the focus off theses beautiful images.

Have a good week xx

Valentine gifts

A quick post to share what I made my hubby for Valentine's Day.  I used my Cameo to make the card and the gift bag.

 I sprayed the black card with irridescent Spray & Sparkle and just added a red heart gem.

The cutting file for the bag is from The Cutting Cafe - see the link in the sidebar.  It is made from Coordinations cardstock and after distressing it, I added some gems.  The bag didn't turn out quite how I had planned - I should really have used more 'masculine' colours!! and I would have decorated it with different papers BUT I ran out of time :( 

However, I'm pleased that I learnt how to use my Cameo a bit more!

Hope you've had a good week and enjoy the weekend xx
