Today i am sharing a a card made with Françoise Doodle collection. I used the doodle dies and made a frame to go over the stamped images. Love this collection so cheerful and relaxing to colour.

Today I am sharing this sparkly card I made using stamps and dies from Francoise's Christmas Collection. For the background I simple ink blended a rectangle panel of white card with Bundled Sage and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide ink pads. Then I stamped the trees and postmarks with a slightly darker green ink for a tone on tone effect.
I covered a piece of white card, slightly bigger than the oval I needed with sticky sheet attached. I die cut stips of the pine trees and paperchain and laid them on before covering with glitter. I used Atomix Glitter Luminescent Blaze. I then die-cut the oval as this compresses the edges for a neat finish. Som coordinating mats and layers and I was done. I think I will do some in blues for my own Christmas cards.

Today I am sharing this quick little Christmas card using some of the smaller stamps from Gwen's first Christmas card. The grid is Francoise's stencil that goes with her Postage Stamp die. It is such an easy and quick way to create panels ready for decorating with stamps or little die cuts.

It is a beautiful cold but sunny Autumn day today here in Scotland. We had a lovely walk this morning in the woods and around a loch this morning with our dog. This card has all the colours of Autumn. I used a combination of ink blending, stamping and stencilling to create this backdrop for the dragonfly.
All these stamps and stencil are from Gwen's Brush Strokes Collection.

Another sketch book page… I love this particular design from my new paper pad…. I added doodles once I had completed the colouring with alcohol pens… For the doodling I used the black and white acrylic markers from Royal and Langnickel …xx
