Chevron Accents

Morning all, Squirrel in the hot seat

Something a little out of the ordinary from me today, there isn't a stamp in sight!

For this die-cut masterpiece (!) I have used

It's supposed to be a  scorcher, stay in the shade, drink lots!

Hello, Squirrel here today, and I am fretting about our grass, if it doesn't get cut soon I may never be able to get out of the back door.

I bet Nancy doesn't have that problem, after all, she was born to garden.

Right then, the yummy stuff

Wiz

Hello everyone, it's Annette here today and I'm sharing a more masculine style card featuring Wiz from Stamping Bella and my trusty Frantic Stamper stitched border dies. 

The sentiment comes with the stamp so this really is a simple layout.  

I tried to get a bit of glow from the magical ball onto the Wizard and his clothing which involved a fair amount of careful blending, but I am quite pleased with how it turned out and it was easier than I thought it was going to be.

Card Recipe:

From Dies To Die For:

• Wiz from Stamping Bella
• Versafine Ink Pad
• Frantic Stamper Stitched Scene Builder Edges

Happy crafting

• Maja Design Vintage Romance Paper Pad
• Versafine Ink Pad
• WRS Everyday Sentiment Stamp set

Tiny Dancers

Hello everyone.  It's Annette here with my first design samples for Dies to Die For and I've got not one, but two cards to share with you today. 

This wasn't originally intentional, but I spent so long on the no-lines version of the Tiny Dancers image that when I'd finished it I decided to make a 'normal' lines version to compare the two!

First of all the 'no-lines' version:

And now here's the 'normal' version....

From Dies To Die For:

• Stamping Bella Tiny Dancers
• Frantic Stamper Stitched Scene Builder Edges
• Lawn Fawn Stitched Square Stackables
• MFT Oval Nesting Dies
• Magnolia DooHickey Die Leaf & Swirl

Hi Everyone, Happy Valentines Day!

So, it's Faye here today :)

And I'm gonna tease you big styley, because, this stamp is out of stock! BUT. There are soooooo many other gorgeous Tiddly Ink Stamps to choose from instead. Many of them are reduced as they are being retired, so, it's well worth a looksie.

I did do a bit of a boo boo with the die I used though, as I didn't check it hadn't been retired. Doh! But, I have another BUT. You can't get the die 'I' used, but, Frantic Stamper Chevron Accents are equally as cool, and you get three dies to play with. 

Products Used...

Tiddly Inks - My Boys Stamp Set
Echo Park Summer Bliss Paper Pad
Frantic Stamper Chevron Accents Die (not what I used, but just as cool)

Thanks so much for stopping by... Have a great day...

Happy Birthday...
