Flutter by thank you!!

This was my very first crayon resist card and I'm really happy how it turned out! I used our Celebration Spectrum Pad on glossy white card stock and it was really effective. At the time of making this card I didnt' own any word stamps so I just stamped the 'thank you' part of one of the Greetings Galore stamps (they all have words and pictures on them) and used that.

Recipe:
Stamp set: Flitting By Stampin Around wheel, Greetings Galore, Fresh Fillers
Cardstock: Glossy White, Only Orange, Lovely Lilac, Green Galore
Accessories: Hodgepodge Hardware, Vintage brads

Snappy birthday!!

This card was made using the Crab 'n Co stamp set which was in our Spring mini catalogue. The shell background is done using a Stampin Around wheel - definitely one of the easiest ways to create great backgrounds! I stamped the crab in Versamark ink and then sponged the chalk colour over the top to create a multicoloured look.

Hello and welcome to my blog!

Hello and welcome to my blog! I thought I'd finally get my act together and start a blog to showcase my cardmaking creations. I am an independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator in Melbourne, Australia. I joined Stampin' Up! almost a year ago now and have had a ball learning new things and meeting new people. I don't get nearly as much time to make cards as I would like to, but I'll try to do at least 1 a week so I have something to post on here!!
To get started, I'll just post some of my favourite cards that I've made during the last year. Hope you like them!!
