Cactus Sunday

Hi Everyone! Sorry for posting this a little late. This is just what happens when I forgot to charge my camera battery. Anyhoo, I felt like doing a little relaxing and watercolouring. So, I brought out the Sharp One stamp set, stamped a whole bunch of cactus and succulents and watercolour them while watching some TV :)

I've stamped all the images on a thin piece of paper first so that I use it as a mask when I want to stamp another image. This will allow me to do an overlapping of stamping without have the stamp lines interfering. 

I've decided to use the images as some kind of border around the die-cut sentiment. I have not done this look in a while and I quite like it and want to use it with other stamp set.

You Are Wonderful

Hiiii!!Who else loves succulents as much as I do? Well, today, I'm sharing a card that you can recreate for a friend or love ones that love succulents too! I'm using one of my favourite sets called Sharp One.

I wanted to use a dark card base which unfortunately, the lighting isn't that great when I took this photo. But I wanted to take a break from my white card bases. Simply enough, this card was made just but stamping, colouring and cutting it out. The beautiful stamps really speaks for itself. 

I wanted to use my leftover patterned papers from the Beach Party Kit to add a bright yellow to ground the plants. 

I hope you like this card and give these stamps a try!

May New Releases - Cactus

Hiiii!! If you didn't know, a bunch of NEW releases are here! Head to the store and check them out. It's a great release this time. So today, I just wanted to keep it simple and just focus on these adorable stamps :)

As you might know, I'm a fan of doing one layer cards and when new stamp set comes, I know I just had to do this. If you've not done one-layer cards yet, you have to start by stamping out your images all on the thin piece of paper first.

Cut out those images to protect them while you stamp another image over it. This is to make it look like they are sitting on top of each other without adding bulk.
