Eastern Blooms on Love Notes

Love notes are pre-scored cards that fold to a 3" square. In each pack, you receive 10 each in Whisper White and Very Vanilla with matching envelopes. They are a great idea for a quick greeting or to attach to a present.

This particular love note was put together to go with the previous card. I love that flower in the Eastern Blooms set. It looks great in a very bold colour like Regal Rose.

Stamp Set: Eastern Blooms

Card: Love Notes - Whisper White, Regal Rose

Peaceful Blooms

Phew, life's been so busy the last couple of weeks. We've had family from England come and go, Easter (of course) and other family events. So, I haven't had any time to post. However, this card has a peaceful kind of feel to it!

I made it using one of my current favourites, Eastern Blooms (page 76 of the current IB&C). If you come to my project class on 16 May, you can make it too. It goes with the project we'll be making. Email or call me on 0410 343 470 to book.

The design came about by accident - I chopped too much off the Regal Rose cardstock, so I decided to use it with a big split in the middle.

Ruth's Colour and Sketch Challenge

I didn't make it back over the weekend because my computer broke down, but I'm back on line and here is the promised card. Ruth Bishop from my team posted this colour and sketch challenge on her blog. The colours are Pacific Blue, So Saffron, Pumpkin Pie and Rose Red - four colours that I never would have thought of using together but they've made a very bright card. The stamp sets used are Priceless and the brand new Fresh Cuts. I've also used some Dazzling Diamonds on the butterfly image and white gel around the Scallop Circle.

Update on Bushfire Appeal

You may remember that recently, Stampin' Up! held a Bushfire Appeal to help people in Victoria who lost their property in the fires.

The result: $77,889.63 for the Appeal!

Thank-you to everyone who participated.

This is a great result and will definitely help.

I'll be back over the weekend with a card.
