Hi there on this Wednesday Morning. I thought I'd share this easy card today using the acrylic block technique. I have shared various projects like this using this technique it's very useful for quick card making.
I took an acrylic block first covering it with various distress inks. I chose 3 different colours ( not being to careful were you transfer it on the block ) I spritzed the ink covered block with water, allow it to disperse a little then stamp on to cardstock.
Allow to dry or use a heat gun for quickness. I stamped my image onto my finished stamped background and coloured it in.
I chose this dreamcatcher stamp as my main image and this little sentiment stamped underneath.
A quick card for a beginner starting out on stamping.
Thanks for calling in
Love sharon

Corner pop-up card.
Hi there on this very dull Friday afternoon. I have 2 cards to share with you today featuring the hobby house collection Hopeful which i was working on last time. I wanted to do a different card fold for my next project so I looked on pinerest to found some ideas and came across this corner pop up card.
If you would like to have a go at this card Click here. The instructions are easy to follow and well worth a visit.
I used all the tiny scraps of card for the first project because i didn't realise it was going to fold into such a small card so i made another larger one from a 12×12in sheet of card which worked well enabling me to put a topper on.
I hope you like the cards.
Next time I will share another folded card with you using the same collection.
Until next time.
Love

Hopeful.
Hi there wishing you a very late Happy new year to you all. I thought I'd go for something easy to ease myself back into crafting again...so I chose to get my crafting juices flowing with this cute card making kit from Hobby House which I purchased last year called Hopeful, the topper sheet, patterned card and gorgeous embellishments make this a beautiful collection.
A inspirational ideas sheet is provided in the kit which I found really handy but you can use the kit to fuel your own imagination to make different projects which I will share with you as I go along.
I have used some of my own craft stash but most of it is from the kit.
Hope you enjoy looking at my cards l love to share all my ideas.
Until the next time.
Love

Just for you.
Hi there on this Thursday Morning. I made this background at my craft class it was so easy to make and the results are amazing.
With a A4 piece of card start by using one paint colour ( acrylic paint ) aply with your finger in a circular motion then space the same colour out in to different places on the card. Repeat with more colours filling all the space on the card.
To complete the background ink up a selection of stamps in black ink in turn sponge a stencil in white ink randomly all over the background.
Finally stamp the main image in black archival ink using a white liner pen to give the girl definition, cut down to size then back onto black card leaving a small border. Stamp a sentiment onto a blank white card in the bottom right hand corner. Adhere the whole completed project onto the prepared card.
Thank for your company and happy crafting.😊

Delightful fairy.
Hi there on this Tuesday afternoon. I thought I'd share this quick card with you i made yesterday, created with a brusho background.
Here's my creation....
I inked some hills with a torn piece of paper, stamped my image in position along with foliage and stars. I also added a sentiment and finally covered the fairy wings and stars with glitter glue to make the card pop.😊
Thank you for calling in and happy crafting

Thank you.
Hi there on this Wednesday Morning, hope you are well and you're enjoying your day. This is another card created with the delightful daisy stamp set as promised. I stamped all this project with the Tonic studios Tim holtz stamp platform which I recently purchased. I filled the flower centre's with glossy accents to make them pop and added a pink bakers twine bow on the stripe were I stamped the sentiment.
Thanks for calling in and happy crafting 😊
