Your freebies today are:

1. a digital stamp

3. my very first patterned papers!

I’ve made a Mothers Day easel card today as Mothering Sunday is coming soon in the UK. I coloured my Crocus image with prismas and layered with spellbinders fleur de lis border die by mitering the corners and layered with the purple paper from my small check paper pack (below) and some purple card stock. The lower panel is made from the same purple cardstock and spellbinder border die and the green paper from my small check paper pack. I printed my sentiment onto the purple patterned paper and punched it out with an oval punch and layered onto a die from spellbinders floral accents, I added an eyelet to each die cut and threaded a 1 inch ribbon through.

This is the first time I’ve done papers so I really would love to hear what you guys think about it, if you find them useful and if you would like to see more papers in the future so please leave me a comment and let me know what you think. I keep using up the check patterns from paper packs first and have been running out so I created these out of necessity initially but of course I had to share them with you. The papers are A4/letter size, there are 7 pastel colours and the size of the check pattern is small to suit card making. I hope you like them.

card + digis – First Posted: Tuesday, February 23, 2010

I adapted on of my existing stamps for todays card, I took my rose digital stamp and added some leaves to it which I think will make it a little easier to use. I’ll pop the leaves up on their own too in case they can be of some use to you.

I printed my image 3 times onto white card stock and coloured with prismacolor pencils then cut each piece smaller than the next and layered with sticky foam pads to create a 3-d flower. I framed the image with oval spellbinders and used an ornare stencil to create the embossed and pierced elements.

May you have many Mower! – First Posted: Friday, February 19, 2010

The inside of todays card read “May you have many Mower!”.

I printed my image onto white card stock and coloured with pencils, I used a die to cut my rectangle and sponged the outter edges of the image with blue ink before removing the die to create a white border. I typed my sentiments onto white card for the ribbon tag and directly onto the inside of the base card and finished with some 1/2 inch ribbon, a button and some round snaps.
