Celebrate ! - My Mum's Craft Shop DT Card

Hi there everyone, happy Tuesday.  It's Megan's last day at school today so I'm looking forward to spending some time with her over the holidays (I just hope it isn't too hot....warm will be nice though lol).

It's time for my weekly slot over at My Mum's Craft Shop and it's a free theme this week...it's always lovely to have free rein over which goodies to use and I've decided to keep it fairly simple this week and let this gorgeous stamp do the talking.

I've used one of the Stamping Bella Uptown Girls stamps called Victoria & Juliette's Night Out which I have coloured with Copics and blinged up with plenty of glamour dust.

The papers are from the Echo Park Dots & Stripes Bundle of Joy Girl 6 x 6 paper pad and I've matted all my panels onto silver cardstock.

I've made a scalloped border panel using the Die-namics Jumbo Scallop die and I've paper pricked around the edges to make the little holes.  I've then added a length of pink grosgrain saddlestitch ribbon topped off with a button from The Hobby House's Fancy Button - Pearl Mix for a bit of extra bling.

Finishing touches are a couple of pearls to each corner and there you have it, the perfect girly birthday card.

Thanks for stopping by...have a great day

Especially for You

Hi again everyone

I'm back again today with another creation for My Mum's Craft Shop and our theme for this week is pre-coloured toppers and images.  These are great if you are not confident with your colouring skills or if you just want to make a quick card and don't have time to colour an image.

As you know I'm a huge fan of Sylvia Zet's images so I decided to use one of the images from the Spring Bringer topper set by The Hobby House.

I was led by the soft muted colours in the image and used the Collectable Memorable 6 x 6 pad by My Minds Eye as the gorgeous pinks and greens matched really well.  To keep up with the muted theme I've matted all my panels onto Kraft cardstock.

I've used the Fishtail Flags dienamics to add some banners in the background and I've added some lace ribbon and buttons from my stash to embellish.

Keep popping back to the My Mums Craft Shop blog this week to check out the creations from the rest of the DT girlies.

My Mums Craft Shop - Flower Theme Week

Hey there everyone, it's Wednesday which means it's time for my weekly post for My Mum's Craft Shop where our theme for this week is 'Flowers'.

I've used the brand new Sweet Roses stamps by My Favourite Things and their matching Roses and Leaves Die-namics.

I've die cut the flowers first from white card before stamping the solid flower images onto them.  I have then inked up the outline flower stamps with brown ink and stamped over the top for some definition.  It did take a few attempts to get the stamps lined up with the die cuts but I got there in the end !

 

 

The papers are from the Blank Canvas paper pad and the central panels are made using the Layered Label die-namics.

 

I've used one of the sentiments from the stamp set and finished off with some grosgrain ribbon and some Chocolate Heaven pearls.

 

That's all from me for today, hope you all have a great day.

My Mums Craft Shop - You Make Life Wonderful

Hey there everyone, it's Wednesday already and time for my weekly post for My Mums Craft Shop

It's a free theme this week so I decided to use one of the newest stamps in the shop, the gorgeously cute Little Gardener from Pure Innocence.  It's a great set which comes with five sentiments.

I've coloured her with Copics before cutting her out and mounting her onto foam pads.

The papers are from my 6 x 6 Collectable Memorable pad from My Minds Eye and I love the vintage feel they have to them.  I've mounted all my panels onto Kraft cardstock and used some thick satin ribbon and a length of pink crochet lace to embellish.

The gorgeous flowers are the new Cherry Blossoms from The Hobby House and these are the Summertime collection and match perfectly with these papers.

I've used one of the sentiments from the stamp set, stamped in brown ink and again mounted onto Kraft.

That's all from me folks, I will be back on Friday with my Dilly Beans challenge post.

Have a great Wednesday everyone.

Hugs
Shelly xx
