Kraft is one of my favourite colours!

Hi everyone

I'm taking a short break and thought I'd play on the computer and blog this card for you, I had this crazy idea that I would start to reorganize my craft room...what was I thinking?!?! Now I have succeeded in making a total mess and I'm not sure if I'll ever get it sorted out! LOL!!! But I have found a few long lost goodies in my overwhelming stash, so that's good news. This card is one of my favourites, I just love this little bird and I love working with Kraft cardstock, it seems to go with just about every colour!

 

Supplies I used:
Cardstock: Kraft, Chocolate Chip and Whisper White
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Pink Pirhouette Reinker (retired)
Stamps: Friends 24-7, Itty Bitty Backgrounds, Friendly Words Jumbo Wheel
Punch: Eyelet Border Punch (Also used the same punch, trimmed and crimped to fit around the circle)
Accessories: Circle Nestabilities, Blue Chalk, Stickles, Sizzlet Little Leaves Die, 1/4" Circle punch, Pretty in Pink Taffeta Ribbon, tied with linen thread, small pearls.


Hope you like it! Thanks for stopping by!

A Vintage Card

Hi everyone!

We've gone from a heat wave to cooler temperatures and rain now. I actually don't mind the rain and the forests can sure use a healthy drink. Here's another card to share with you, I love the vintage look of it! Sponging and distressing are 2 of my favourite techniques.


 
The technique I've done is called Popping Pastels.
Here's the recipe:
Cardstock: Kraft and Whisper White
Stamp set: Friends 24-7, En Francais (Background), Itty Bitty Backgrounds
Ink: Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Close to Cocoa and Versamark

Accessories: SU Die Cut Butterflies, Cuttlebug Texture Folder, Leaf Punch, Branch from my garden(!), Half back Pearls, Fine Wire and SU Chalks (same colours as the inks above), Pretty in Pink Tafetta Ribbon, Distressing Tool and Sponges.

Hope you enjoy it!
