Sorry! Somehow have been distracted by other things and am now running spectacularly late, even for me! So in an attempt to catch up I'm going to try and share with you some of the things I've been doing!
The wonderful Card Club invited me to do a workshop for them in May, so I took the opportunity to theme it with retiring items, and that gave me the IDEAL excuse to make the most of the retiring lists :-)
Here's a card we dis using the retiring Mosaic Madness, as you can see I've been playing around with the punch to create the greeting at the bottom. The colours of the DSP were so striking, I simply used them as the colour palette for the card.
Stamp Set: Mosaic Madness, and a sentiment set
Card Stock: Island Indigo, Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie, Strawberry Slush
DSP: Quatrefancy
Accessories; Mosaic punch, Pearl embellishments, Modern Mosaic embossing folder
Then something simple, but useful for the recipient :-) A card with a bookmark greeting! Great excuse for a little introduction to Blackberry Bliss for the background emboss ;-)
Stamp set: Painted Petals (from Spring/Summer Catalogue)
Card Stock: Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White
(Background DSP: Painted Blooms)
Ink: Blackberry Bliss, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz
Accessories: Blackberry Bliss Stitched 3/8" Satin Ribbon, Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, Spring Petals embossing folder
And finally, just for fun a little card, for a little one, and a marvelous excuse for bunting! At the workshop I let people choose Pink or Blue . . . .
Stamp set: Itty Bitty Baby
Card Stock: Soft Sky and Whisper White
Inks: Pacific Point, Soft Sky
Accessories: Baker's Twine,Banner Punch
Keep on Crating, GenGen xxxx
