Morning everyone, today I have a simple Christmas Card using my Pinecone stamp set #389.
I created this piece on a Facebook Live and you can catch the video on replay below:
I will add some close up shots below.
This is the inside of my card to coordinate perfectly with the front of the card.

Morning everyone, today I have a variation on a theme from Friday's card.
Once again I have used my Washi Tapes to create a simple Christmas Card combined with my Bird Song Stamp Set.
I also incorporated some Distress Oxide Ink in the background to combine with the red from the berries and my Washi Tape.
The bird from my Bird Song Stamp Set sits perfectly within the design.
I also used my Grungy Alphabet to add the text NOEL to the design. I added a touch of shading around the baubles to make them pop and added further to the Christmas theme with some Mica Flakes.

Hello everyone, today I have a Christmas card for you, something for those last minute makes.
I love how this card turned out, just using Washi Tape and a touch of stamping from my Ephemera Digists Stamp Set.
Some touches of mica flakes really add to the festive feel along with the touches of red.

Morning everyone, today I have a mixed media piece showcasing my A4 Stamp Set Winged Bugs.
I love all the detail on this piece and mixing a vintage spool into the mix.
This piece encompasses everything I love, layers, texture, dimension and quirky elements too. It is a piece I thoroughly enjoyed making and I hope you enjoy the close up pictures.
Have a lovely week and see you Friday back on the blog.
Morning everyone, today I have a card showcasing my newly released A5 Stamp Set Wire Birds #394.
I began by creating a background using Speckled Egg, Peeled Paint and Bundled Sage Distress Oxide Inks. I simply swiped the inkpads lightly across the background.
I added touches of black stamping around the edges of my card to draw the eye into the focal image.
The black Washi Tape also helps to draw the eye into the focal image.
I added dimension to the bird and added some shading around the outside edge to make the image pop.
The added twigs and lollipop stick add further dimension to my design along with a quirky element. I also included some background stamping for further interest.
Thank so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
Morning everyone, welcome, thank you so much for stopping by. Today I have a card showcasing my border stamp set "Poppy Seedheads" #447.
I adore this stamp set and was so pleased with the way this card developed.
Above is a demonstration during a Facebook Live, so if you did not catch it the first time around, you can see it above on replay.
The pictures above show you close up's so you can really see the detail.

Morning everyone, hope you are well.
Today I have a post showcasing my recently released Autumn range.
A lovely fresh colour palette using Distress Oxide Inks. The inky background still has plenty of open space to give the card a fresh funky feel.
I incorporated the leaf from my Great Outdoors Stamp Set. I think the leaf works perfectly combined with one of my bird images.
The sentiment is from my Pinecone set and sums up how I feel perfectly.
I also included some metal embellishments and I partcularly love the optical lense.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
Morning everyone, today I am showcasing a card I created on a recent Facebook Live. This piece showcases my Birdsong Stamp Set combined with my Pinecone Stamp Set.
I love the green in this piece which is Peeled Paint Distress Ink and Oxide.
If you missed the Facebook Live the first time around you can catch it on rewind below:
In the video I take you through all the steps to complete the card. I hope you enjoy the process.
This photo showcases the detail perfectly. I adore that inky backdrop.
I also added detail to the inside of my card, a paired down version of the front of my card.
