Awash With Flowers....again!

Another plain and simple card using this set...I went bright using Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Marina  Mist on a white background...love these three colours together...the stamp a ma jig gets a real workout with this set!

Tea Bag Holder

This is a remake of a teabag holder I made a while back minus the bellyband. To make this cut a strip of cardstock 21 cm x 8.5 cm and score at 4.5cm, 13.5cm and 14 cm. 

With your cardstock in the vertical position use the scallop edge punch to edge the longer flap across the 8.5 cm edge and use the wide oval to take a bite out of the bottom flap. Use sticky strip to glue the side edges of the 4.5 cm flap to create a pocket for your teabag. I use the kettle from the Morning Cup set to embellish the front. Quick and easy..you could whip these up for the kids Mother's Day stalls at school...speaking of Mother's day stalls, I remember a few pressies I have received from my kids class stalls over the years. My eldest daughter gave me a lovley coffee cup one year wrapped in torn cellophane where she had dipped in and eaten the chocolates...my middle daughter gave me a packet of padlocks??? and my youngest gave me a vinyl shower curtain..she questioned me a few months later why I wasn't using it and I had to point out we had glass shower screens lol!

Morning Cup Case

The other day while blurfing, I came across this cute card idea by Lisa Young. I have changed the colours but the rest is pure case. I have used  Regal Rose designer paper on Pretty in pink card stock and the teapot and cups were stamped onto watercolour paper and cut out....a few pattycakes and this would make a cute invite for a High Tea!

Aviary Suspension Card

'scuse the wonky angle...if you tilt your head a little to the right the photo will look straight lol. I have certainly gotten my money's worth from the Aviary set, I LOVE it to bits! You can't tell so well from the picture but the birdcage sits in a hole punched in the card front and it spins. This is called a suspension card if you would like to google for instructions..I just winged it..pardon the pun! I have used the new designer label punch to stamp the sentiment and used Punch Potpourri for the little flowers which are stamped in Rose Red.

5th Avenue Floral

I have been stamping like crazy fo rthe last few days...it helps your mojo when you have new stamps to play with!! Thought I would share some cards we are doing in upcoming classes and workshops

I think I will give this one to my Mum! I love Pale Plum with Rich Razzleberry.

Very bright!!! But I had fun doing the watercolour roses...Its plain...but I like plain

Another bright one using Melon Mambo...5th Avenue Floral is officially my new fave set

I was a bit calmer with the colours on this one lol..This Lily is gorgeous

Same lily again..I used Barely Banana and Pale Plum...coffee break..will upload some more soon!
