Card-io Majestix Easter Card



It's the first of April, my first "Hot Cross Bun" has been eaten and Easter isn't far away, so I decided to make an Easter card. 

I have used four sets of Card-io Majestix stamps to create this card:  Basket & Bows, Eggstra Special, Winter View and Freesia & Violet sets.

I have stamped in Versafine Clair and Memento Inks, using Distress Oxide Ink for the mottled background shade.

Card-io "Wild Flowers" half wreath card



This is a card I have made for a dear friend, who celebrates a significant birthday today.

First, I used a circle stencil on the left side, I drew a light pencil line around the edge, on the right hand side, I used "Bundled Sage" Distress Oxide Ink to create a soft coloured edge, to give the impression of the continued wreath.

For the wreath, I used two Card-io stamp sets "Wild Flowers" and "Sweet Hearts", stamped in various shades of Memento and Distress Oxide Inks.  I then added some touches of Posca Pen to the middle of the flowers for extra detail.

Both the sentiments used are by Simon Says Stamps, using two of their sets:  "Tiny Words Birthday" and "Tiny Words Encouragement", both stamped in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.
