Creative Inkers Occasions Blog Hop


 
Welcome to another blog hop with the Creative Inkers team - this time we are show casing the new Occasions Catalogue.  Have a look at my creations and then carry on hoping over to look at the rest of the team's awesome creations!

If you are following the blog hop, you will have come from the very creative Ria Kaire's blog.    If you have just joined my page keep following the loop round to see everyone's gorgeous projects.

There are just so many lovely new items in the Occasion's catalogue that I had such a hard time choosing what to show.  I finally decided on the Something Lacy stamp set. 

Now onto my projects.  I used the blendabilties pens for these cards.  I only used one stamped image and then cut it to make two cards. 





Since I am addicted to colouring I made another card but only used Melon Mamba, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive blendabilities for this one.



See the bottom of the post for the list of supplies.

I hope you've enjoyed my cards - now you're going to head over to Kathe Oldham to see her stunning projects, just click the next button.

Creative Inkers Sal-a-bration Blog Hop


Another blog hop with the Creative Inkers team so have a look at my creations and then carry on hoping over to look at the rest of the team's awesome creations!

If you are new to Blog Hopping, just view my post and then click on the link at the bottom of my post to visit the next site and so on.

If you've been following the blog hop, you will have come from Ria Kaire's blog.  Didn't she have a stunning project to show us.  If you have just joined my page keep following the loop round to see everyone's gorgeous projects.  If you get 'lost', there's a list of all the blogs at the bottom of this post.

I am currently sitting outside (under cover of course) in the beautiful, actually extremely hot, summer weather typing up my post, while sipping an ice cold drink and enjoying the lovely breeze that is blowing.  Summer is just such a happy season and who doesn't love summer?

Now onto my projects.  Here are both the cards together.  I used the same stamp set but totally different colours and attempted to change the style but I am not sure I succeeded!!! I tried to keep both cards really simple but I seem to have this thing with layers so I ended up adding them.


For my first card I had to use the gorgeous Irresistibly Yours DSP and sponged Hello Honey diagonally across the centre and Lost Lagoon on the opposite corners.
 
 
For my second card I went for monochrome and only used Pinks and Vanilla.  I stamped the Lotus Blossom all over the front of the cards instead of using plain card or DSP.

 
I also decorated the inside of the card.
 

See the bottom of the post for the list of supplies.

I hope you've enjoyed my cards - now you're going to head over to Kathe Oldham to see her lovely projects, just click the next button.
