Wedding cards

Here are a few Wedding cards I have made in the last few months. I love these latte Stampin Up papers ...



And here's another version, but in black & white ...


I made quite a few wedding cards using the Wedding Wheels stamp. For this card I made an extra long tag from the Two Tags Stampin Up die, tied in ribbon ...


Here's a close up ...


And when the ribbon is untied, the tag unfolds to reveal a secret message!



I've had a musical September this year ... my Dad organised a Blues concert bringing together lots of old Blues music acts from when he played in a band back in the day! I finally got to see George Michael after his concerts were postponed due to ill health last year! And much clapping & singing was had at our night out to see Ultravox :)

Welcome to my blog!

Hello & welcome to my new papercrafting blog! I've been an avid card maker for years & am looking forward to sharing ideas & inspiration with you all.
I have recently signed up as an Independent Stampin' Up Demonstrator so this blog will feature crafty creations made with their products. So, to get this blog started here's the first card I made with my new Stampin' Up products ...


I love this I (Heart) Hearts stamp set, stamped with melon mambo ink. Such a versatile set that can be used for birthday cards for friends, wedding, anniversary and valentine cards. I fell in love with the Scallop Trim Border punch as soon as I saw it. The background is stamped with the Friendly stamp.

The Nature Walk stamp set is my favourite stamp set from the current Mini catalogue & I made these two cards with it ...


These cards are stamped in old olive & pretty in pink inks with papers from the brights & subtles collections of designer series paper stacks.


I made this card for my Dad for Father's Day & used early espresso, marina mist, old olive and real red ink.
