Postcard Pal

Today I decided I would have a go at entering Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlight card making challenge. Ten winners will have the chance to join in a Blog Hop. I would love to have a go at this. You can pop along to vote for me by clicking on the below button (if you like my card!) Added bonus is to see loads of other inspiring card designs.

The theme is encouragement.

I've used Postcard Pals stamp set with some of my Stampin' Up! Blends.

I'e used a pretty edge die from Be Mine Stitched Framelits to go all around my Whisper White layer for a subtle edge to my card stock layer.

I love using my Stampin' Up! blends but I'm not great at the colouring just yet!

This is my sentiment inside my card.

Don't forget to pop along to see the other projects and vote!

Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop Spring/Summer Catalogue

Hello, Welcome to the first Ink. Stamp. Share Blog hop of the year.
You may of joined me from Tricia Butts beautiful project, or you may of started on my blog, hope you enjoy.

This month our theme is Spring/Summer Catalogue. The new catalogue went live on 3rd January and is packed full of beautiful, fun and cute items. If you would like a copy please contact me and I will post one right out to you.

I'm using Geared Up Garage.

This is a great suite and the stamp set has a matching die set with 10% off when brought as a bundle. There are also 6 x 6 paper packs, metal elements and ribbon.

Classic Garage Metal Elements, so cute!

Here's a picture of my card with some examples of the paper designs in the 6 x 6 packs. I think this card may look even better with the map paper. Wish I'd thought of it earlier!!!

I used the blends to colour my car in, I love the blends so easy and fun to use. It's hard to see in the photo but my white top layer has been die cut with the car an the actual car is on the bottom layer. I believe this is called Set Back Stamping.

The Metal Elements stick really well with the Fine Tip Glue.

The blends do bleed through the back if you're colouring on the card base, this is why I added a panel using the Rectangle Stiched Framelits to cover this up.

I've made a short video on how I made this card.

Don't forget to hop along with all the talented ladies in this Blog Hop, you will not regret it, Rebecca-Jo Unwin is next, check out her great project.
