Summer Mini - serious temptation!

Hi All! Sorry for the delay in updating my blog, but I was at a Demo training day last Saturday and as always felt the deadline for my creations - why change the habit of a lifetime ;-) So thought I would show you the name tag I made for the day . . .


So here I used Neutrals Ivory card stock, the Apothecary Art stamp set, here, printed in Staz On to allow water colouring of the flowers in Regal Rose and Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive. Highlighted by Rhinestone jewels for the flower centres and Brights Glimmer Brads either side of my name, with just a little razzleberry around the edge dome with sponge daubers.


 For some reason, as there were 128 demos attending, I thought I would try to make a swap for those attending! Here it is . . .


On a background of Rich Razzleberry card stock, the filigree border in the same ink from the Creative Elements stamp set, and then the friend greeting from the You're a Gem stamp set in Whisper white. I simply couldn't resist the gorgeous Mixed Bunch stamp set and matching Blossom punch for the Confetti White background flower and then Rich Razzleberry ink on the Wisteria Wonder card stock, with a central pearl jewel for the centre and of course my obsession with the scallop trim corner punch continues with pearl enhancement of the scallop pattern.

I couldn't resist the putting together a little something for the Summer Mini Project for the Reading training - I would love to know what you think . . .


Melon Mambo card stock, and of course a use for left over printed flowers using the fabulous Simply Scored tool (New from SU), to make this flower into a folded medallion, glimmer brad centre, Wild Wasabi embossing powder for the stem of the Precious Butterflies Hostess set. A couple of butterflies from the Beautiful Butterflies embosslits, a few pearl jewels and then greetings from the You're a Gem set.

I have to say I am getting completely carried away with the simply scored tool, and am about to order my diagonal scoring plate do that I can set to making matching envelopes and other 3D goodies that were demonstrated at training last weekend - just not enough hours in the day - hee hee hee!

Keep on crafting Gen xxx
