TSOT #120 - Boy Crazy

Hi, this week at Try Stampin' On Tuesday, Paula has given us a great sketch to work with. Just a warning, this card has lots of patterns and is a bit brighter than the norm :)




I flipped the sketch and changed the location of the sentiment. I used some of the boy crazy paper range from My Minds Eye. The arrows are from the sticker sheet also in this range. My sentiment is from 'Perfect Words' and stamped in stazon jet black and I stamped it again and popped the '11' onto dimensionals.

So why not join in with us? - It's fantastic seeing your creations. 

Thanks for looking

Baja Wedding

Hi! Well I'm here with a card other than a design team card. I made this card for some good friends of ours, who got married back in January. It's an easel card and I went with a simple colour scheme of baja breeze and white.


I was quite pleased with the result. If you have any questions just ask

Thanks for looking.

TSOT #119

Hi, we have a great sketch for you this week at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. I went for a Christmas card as I wanted to add to my stash. As per usual, I used retired jolly holiday dsp for this card, in the hopes that some time this year I will deplete my stash :)






I flipped the sketch and used my framelits labels to create the center. My greeting is from 'four the holidays' and my colours are cherry cobbler, old olive and very vanilla. This is a fairly clean card and could be easily mass produced.

TSOT #118 - Together Forever

Hi! It's yet again time for another sketch over at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. I REALLY struggled with this one, but once I chose my colours I seemed to find my way :)

Here's the sketch:


And my creation:



I chose a neutral palette of white and crumb cake. I embossed my panels with 2 different embossing folders and my sentiment is from MDS and printed. I added three cherry cobbler hearts punched from the owl punch for a pop of colour. I'm really happy with the end result even if it was a scary sketch for me, but hey, it's great to be challenged right?

Now over to you, it's great seeing what you come up with, and I cant wait to see the amazing creations you create with this sketch! Also if you still need some more inspiration, check out the other design teams creations here

Thanks for looking and any questions, just ask :)

TSOT #117 - Pleasant Poppies

Hello again! Well my fingers are completely frozen as I write this - winter is defiantly on its way!
Any way, it's time again for another sketch over at Try Stampin' On Tuesday. I initially struggled with this one, but once I changed I from rectangle to square it all fell into place quite quickly.

Here's the sketch:


And my creation:



I used my pleasant poppies to create my image, which was quickly water coloured. I love how you can spend hours or minutes and get fabulous results when you watercolour. I stamped in crumb cake some splodges and writing from french foliage. I actually forgot the diagonal line - whoops, so my butterflies were my take on it :) If you have any questions, just ask.

Now over to you. Check out the other design team members creations and remember to post your card. I love seeing how every one sees and uses the sketch.

Thanks for looking :)
