The Riverbank

Hi everyone. Craft Consortium have recently launched the most exquisite new craft collection called The Riverbank which contains a 12 x 12 paper pad, stamps and pretty embellishments which you can check out HERE.

My card today uses the new paper pad along with their amazing non shed Glitter Card. I used Spellbinders 3D vignette die by Becca Feeken. I started to cut out papers from this collection which was the hard bit as so many gorgeous ones to choose from.

I next started to fussy cut a lot of my Riverbank animals and layered them up to give a 3D Decoupage appearance. I added some glitter onto the wings of my dragonflies to compliment my glitter in the background.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.

Backpack Adventures - Cherish The Memory

Hi everyone, today for my DT post with Cherish The Memory I have been having fun with their Ephemera and 3D Decoupage Sheets from Studio Light.

I started by cutting out my Spellbinders die from Becca Feeken in Kraft Card adding a layer of paper from the Memories of Summer pad to the background.

For my centre image I used the 3D Decoupage sheets layering with Silicone Glue and inking my layers at the edges. I added a mixture of media’s onto my flowers.

On my top layer I edged with a pretty lace for extra detail and added some more Ephemera die cuts and paper flowers.

I do hope you feel inspired to try a card similar to this using the Studio Light Collection.

Happy Mothers Day to my Mum

Hi everyone, today I am finally able to share with you all my card for my wonderful Mum on Mother's Day.

On this card I have used Spellbinders new range of Dies from Becca Feeken, please check out her amazing blog HERE.

These flowers are so easy to make and very effective. I used Lemoncraft papers to make my flowers, inking at the edges to add some definition to them and some Stamens into the centres.

I heat embossed the edges of my vintage picture with gold embossing powder and added a layer of gold glitter card from Craft Consortium into my layers and gold foliage stems to also compliment the card.

My butterflies were fussy cut from my Lemoncraft Ephemera Sheet, available from Cherish The Memory and I added some bling into their centres.

Finishing with a stamped fussy cut banner wishing my Mum a Happy Mother's Day.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, your visits are always appreciated.

Happy Mother’s Day - Cherish The Memory

Hi everyone, today I am sharing some more DT inspiration with the beautiful Lemoncraft papers available at Cherish The Memory with a 3D vignette Card.

 This new Die from Spellbinders is such a fab design as it folds flat for posting.

 After cutting all my layers and assembling my card, I die cut my topper and fussy cut my Butterflies and flowers from the Ephemera sheets. 

I inked them at the edges and positioned them on my card along with a ribbon and my sentiment which was stamped onto paper from the coordinating paper pad.

Please do check out all the amazing Lemoncraft products available at Cherish The Memory HERE.

Here is also the link to Becca's beautiful Blog where you will see all her wonderful dies.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Crafting,
