First Sight Mothers Day Card Stampin Up! UK

Today's card is concentrating on clean lines with lots of white space and a monotone colour scheme
I have used white on white Matting, giving life with Stampin Dimensionals between the layers
I went with Lost Lagoon Classic Ink Pad, which co-ordinated well with the Pool Party Glitter Ribbon
I love a good flourish stamp, and the First Sight Stamp Set brings that beautifully. Popping the die cut sentiment adds additional lift, and a few Basic Rhinestones, adds extra sparkle to the Valentine/Love sentiment of this card.

Curvey Corner Trio Punch Z Fold Card Calendar Card, Stampin Up! UK

Today I have a great little gift idea that you, or your children, could make and send out as a Thank You for all those lovely Christmas Gifts you received this year ... oops, that should be last year now!

It involved a little stamping using the Perpetual Calendar Stamp Set & the One Big Meaning Stamp Set, a little scoring using the Scoring Tool with the Metric Plate, and a little punching with the Curvy Corner Trio Punch ... and a little 2016 Calendar which can be purchased from a very well known online auction site

Add a little ribbon and some Linen Thread and the job is done .... easy to make in less than 10-15 minutes (unless your little ones are helping) and it is perfect for making in large amounts so you can make one for everyone in quick time!

Have fun
