So, I have a little trio of cards to share with you today using some of these products. I was hoping to have more than three projects, but my plans were foiled yesterday by a poorly bean with a high temp, which consequently meant no nursery and no free time for this mummy! Hopefully what I do have to share will inspire you?!
First up a snowflake card…
For this card I was inspired by this weeks Freshly Made Sketches sketch seen HERE and below. The angled section on the sketch made me instantly think of the Wonky Stripes stencil.
I reached for my newest Altenew Shades Of Purple inks and masked off a section of the stencil before pouncing the ink onto my card base from lightest to darkest to match the lower left angled section of the sketch.
The snowflake is the medium size of the trio and after die cutting from white card I then applied Lavender Fields ink and then applied a sparkly covering of Stampin’ Up! glitter 😉 The sentiment is from Simply Said II.
Next I wanted to give the new Flower Power 1 – 6 Collection of dies some love…
Firstly I decided to reach for Flower Power #4 one of the flowers I tend to neglect 🙁 I decided to create a cascade effect of all the elements contained in the set, reaching for my trusty colour combination to inspire me. With it being the season of thanks I used a sentiment from Flower Power #3.
All the stamps in this series are designed to coordinate and mix and match with one another to help stretch your supplies and provide you with more creative options.
Lastly, I reached for one of my favourites, Flower Power #2. This flower is inspired by Cherry Blossom and as I have been designing Spring themed clear stamps in the studio I was inspired to use this flower.
I stamped a subtle background using the ‘Just For You’ sentiment and layered my stamped and die cut flower over the top adhering with foam adhesive. I then decided to pair the ‘Happy Birthday’ from Simply Said Blocks.
That’s all I have to share with you today, but I know the Design Team have a wealth of inspiration to share with you, prepare to be WOWED! Be sure to comment along the hop for your chance to win ALL the products being revisited. You have until Midnight (GMT) Saturday 18th November to comment and the winner will be announced Sunday 19th November 2017.
Happy Hopping!

I think your lovely snowflake is just gorgeous – purple, sparkle and CAS – perfect. The little flowers are so pretty, very delicate and just super. Nice work. xxx
PS Hope the little bean is feeling better now.
Oh the Flower Power 2 card is super cute. CAS perfection in all your cards Beverly I must take screenshot of these an CASE them 🙂
Beautiful cards. Cards with striped stencil and the one with subtle background are my favorites. Simply awesome. Clean and beautiful work. 😍❤️
Awww…poor little bean! Hope he’s feeling better today (and that mommy is, too! Sending love….). Your trio of cards are sheer delights! Love the snowflake dressed in pretty purple and sharing the stage with the eye-catching stripes. Your cascade of flowers are wonderful; love the combination of solid/outline stamping. The cherry blossom flower is simply charming in its solo performance! Fabulous, all!
Hugs~c

Wonderful new products and I enjoyed the blog hop.
Gorgeous Christmas card – love that snowflake and the flower card is sooooo pretty! xxx
Beautiful cards! I really love the purple snowflake and also the scripty BG of the last card.
Love the lilac snowflake – I usually plump for the obvious silver or blue colourway with snowflakes! Like the idea of the random sentiment stamping behind your die cut card too xx
Love how you tucked your designs into
smaller areas of the cards. Looks great.
thanks for sharing.
So pretty. I especially love the first (I’m a sucker for purple) and third card. Love the snowflake too.
