It’s been so long since I’ve done a card for the Design Team, I thought I’d best get cracking. Â And I was spurred on finding the Magnolia DownUnder Challenge blog, so that helped. The theme is Bling it On! Â But I’m thinking that the Rhinestones at the top look out of place and that maybe…
My favourite colour combination for a masculine card – Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke and Mellow Moss. Always Artichoke was stamped with the Weathered Background, and the edges sponged with Always Artichoke Ink. Â The Mellow Moss piece has been stamped with the Weathered Background also, but this time in Chocolate Chip, and sponged with Chocolate Chip….

Here’s another of my favourite Stampin’ Up! stamp sets, Fabulous Flowers – also soon to be retired. The image of this card was done by inking up the large flower in Shadow, inking up the flourish image from Baroque Motifs with Close to Cocoa. Then firmly press the two inked stamps together, and stamp the…

I’ve used this set so many times recently, but the cards never make it to the blog, as they are apart of the Stamps by Mail club I run (new club starting soon). Here’s a card we made a Linc n Learn this week. Â All edges of card and paper have been sponged, and chunky…
