Lace "Thank You" Card

Well my crafting mojo is missing at the moment, hence there being so few crafting posts.

A friend recently gifted mea box of crafting goodies, including fabrics, ribbons, laces and various trims.  This is the card I have made using some of the lace and a lace butterfly from the box of crafting items I received.

I used Kraft card and a Lawn Fawn stamp from their "Simply Sentiments" stamp set for the "Thank You" which I heat embossed using Wow! Opaque Vanilla White embossing powder, which I heat set.

Penny Black "Brilliance 40-806" Thank You Card

This evening, I made this thank you cardm using the Penny Black "Brilliance 40-806" cling stamp set on a Distress Oxide Ink background. 

To colour the stamped image, I used assorted Distress Oxide Inks and Inktense Colouring Pencils.

For the background, I used Antique Linen, Tea Dye and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide, sprinking water droplets from a fan paint brush.

The "Thank You" sentiment is from a Hobby Art Stamp Set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink.

Lavinia Stamps "Floral Wreath" thank you card

I am still struggling with a lack of crafting mojo, hence so few posts of makes on here from me.  However, I did make a card for friends who looked after Rosie our Springer Spaniel for the day, allowing us to visit our son and his family in South Wales for the day.

I used two shades of Versafine Clair Ink, "Morning Mist" and "Chianti" to stamp the Lavinia Stamps "Floral Wreath".  I coloured the berries using "Seedless Preserves" Distress Oxide Inks, applied with a paint brush.

I used a Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous sentiment from their "Saying Stuff" stamp set, stamped in "Chianti".

I then mounted the card on to a card blank and applied Ranger "Glossy Accents" to the berries for a 3D look and left to one side to dry over night.

Rose Thank You Card using Spellbinders Clear Stamps (STP-001 and STP-005)

A couple of days ago, I found out that I was the name drawn to receive a set of 12 Spellbinders Clear stamps, courtesy of Hope and Chances Creativity.  My fabulous prize arrived today and I decided to get cracking and make a thank you card using the new stamps.

For the rose itself, I used three stamps from the set STP-001, and three shades of Versafine Ink:  "Charming Pink" for the base, the middle shade is 'Glamorous" and the darker shade is "Purple Delight".  The leaf is from the same set and I used two shades of Versafine Clair ink.  The base colour was "Shady Lane" and the lighter colour on the top is "Verdant".

The sentiment is from the set with the reference number of STP-005 and was stamped in Versafine Clair "Purple Delight".

Thank You Card (Lovely as a tree / Stampin' Up)

I saw a photograph on a local photography group on Facebook that inspired me to create this card.

I used a base of brayered Distress Oxides and then topped it with Distress Inks.

I used the Stampin' Up "Lovely as a tree" set for the main tree image and Lavinia Stamps "Tree Scene" for the smaller trees in the distance.  The sentiment came free with a magazine a while back (all stamped in Versafine).
