Take 2....Silhouette Cameo Triple Layer Card

Hi Friends,

I've had another go at the Triple Layer card to try and make it a little bit better...........

I was a little more careful with my stamping and I made the mats slightly larger, thanks to my Silhouette Cameo!

On this card I also spent extra time stamping and cutting another flower, which I embossed from behind to give it a bit more depth.  I then painted it and added some Glossy Accents by Ranger.

The card was finished off with just a bit of sparkle (Dazzling Diamonds from Stampin' Up).

Contact me if you would like to know how to make a card like this.

Enjoy your day and I hope you manage to find some Silhouette Cameo crafting time!

Stretch your Stamps - Day 8

I've been working on the layout that I am going to be showing at my Abingdon Crop this weekend.  I found additional inspiration yesterday when we were taught about using label stamps.  The background label, cut out using my Silhouette Cameo, is a scanned in image of a stamp (which I learned from this great class).  The sentiment I have used on top says: "Find JOY in Simple Things" and is from a set I bought recently from Hero Arts called "Things (4)".

The inspiration for the layout came from scrapbook generation.

I've got day 9 of Stretch your stamps to try now, so I'd better get on and craft some more!

Hope you find time to craft soon.

My introduction to Copics

Just thought I'd post a card I started to make on Sunday at a Copic marker class. I went with a friend and we learned lots about Copics and now I'm probably hooked! lol! I will still be using my SU inks and my new lovely SU markers as they co-ordinate perfectly with the SU card stock and designer papers, but if i've a lot of space to colour in, Copics are definitely going to be giving me an alternative finish as a non-artist.

I'm pretty pleased with the way the card turned out, its a great start on the Copics and using my favorite SU papers, I think finishes it off nicely.

SU products used:

Whisper white cs, patterns designer series papers in Bashful Blue, Bashful Blue ink for daubing the edges.

Happy crafting.
