Textures and vases

It feels like it hasn't stopped raining all winter and today I felt the need to make a cheery, colourful card. Spring is on it's way.....hopefully.

Sweet little honey bees

I couldn't resist the Honey Bee stamp set and matching dies, oh and the free co-ordinating dsp is gorgeous too!

I've made three cards using largely the same elements but by changing the colours and dsp the look of each card is quite different. I think my favourite is the 'vintage' style in browns and pink.

Wildly Happy for Mother's Day

I haven't used this set in a while but I really wanted to get my blends out and do some colouring. I love colouring these little animals, they are quite small and not too many colours are needed so perfect for practicing blending techniques.

I chose to make these as Mother's Day cards but they would also work really well for a new baby. I started with stamping and colouring the images and the card design itself came together from there. I'm not sure I intended to use quite so many different stamp sets!
