And so the obsession resumes lol. I made this card at the same time as the beer/bike/wine ones last year but waited until after the persons birthday to show it. The colour of the coffee cup is different to one I would have chosen but I was challenged to make a peach mug whilst on a call with friends. I am amazed that the first time I use this stamp set the company is no longer trading which is a shame as it works so well
A take on my rainbow stripes, I’m not sure where the idea came from but I do like it a lot. I’ve been clearing out my old photos and I’m sure this was from last year. There might be a few older posts as I get back on track with the creating. I always struggle in January to get back into the swing of creating but once I do there is no stopping me and of course I have new goodies too lol.
Wow I can’t believe I made these over a year ago and never showed them. I coloured the first one in greys and then decided I liked them better without any shading. I do think I should make more as they are cute and quick.
Ingredients
Image: Cupcakes from LOTV
Sentiment: Creative Stamping Magazine
Dies: A2 stitched rectangle stax from MFT
Card: Purple from Recollections at Michaels
Background: Watercolour wash from LOTV
So I wanted this die set when Honey Bee released it but it was a bit out of my price range, so imagine my surprise when I see it in the clearance section for $14…. I built a whole order around it to get free shipping lol.
Of course then the dilemma of where to get the shiny black paper for the lid started, after searching for ages online I decided to wait and see what was in my stash and guess what…. I already had some lol. I made two at the same time and have plans for more too.
Another day another shaped card, this time however it was for a guy. I bought the stamp in Florida as I thought it looked like the guy and I even coloured it whilst over there with my pencils (crayola in case you were wondering). I am so shocked that I was able to find matching papers when I got home lol.
This year I have a few big birthdays and I’m wondering if the shaped cards will continue or if I will start a new obsession lol.
The final one for now and combining two of my favourite colours, I think if you haven’t tried the stamp and stencil combo you definitely need to especially if you don’t like to colour
So this one I discovered I could use multiple colours and looking at it I’m wondering why I never went rainbow lol. I didn’t make multiples of this colour scheme which now I’m writing this I have no idea why. It’s been almost a year since I made them but I think I should make some more
My second attempt and with my favourite colour too. It still works and I still like it lol.
It’s a perfect card for the ladies in our lives, especially the green fingered ones lol.
This was my first try with this stamp and stencil set from Honey Bee and before I realised I could stencil the flowers in multiple colours. I still really like it though and I love the stencil with the stamp as it’s so quick and easy to achieve beautiful colouring without picking up a pen.
