The Start of Something New...

Hey! It's Tuesday again!

I've been making such complicated cards recently, I thought I'd do something simple. I had a spare piece of stamped out 'map' from 'Wanderlust' knocking around on my desk & it sparked off a card idea using this set.

Remember those days of a new relationship/friendship or a big holiday adventure? I thought it would be fun to make a 'text' card using the sentiment & the 'map' stamp. I did a little stamp surgery on the sentiment to make it fit my speech bubble, cut out a frame from Coredinations cardstock & then just added the little details. The card is practically phone sized & makes a nice change from the same old same old! Do check out this Mama Elephant set- there's only half the stock left from when I last highlighted this set- & they'll go before you know it!

Hope you have your own adventure today!

Something Wonderful!

Hello! How are you all? Thought I'd squeeze another project out of what is probably my favourite stamp set at the moment..'Wanderlust' by Mama Elephant.

The tiny map stamp is gorgeous for a background image & I've simply punched out lots of little holes where the circles are on the stamped image & backed them with coloured cardstock giving a rainbow coloured effect. I'm on a bit of a rainbow kick right now so the black and white main part of the card is the perfect base for colour.

I die-cut circles out of the panel & added a few extra bits- such as the sentiment & an angled matt. Another big go-to supply right now is acetate, so I used that for the card base to make more of an unusual card. 

Hope your day has something wonderful in it ( mine will involve baking, crafting & a kids party !)

See you next Tuesday,

Wander & You'll Miss It!

Morning! Hope you've all had a lovely weekend (a long one for those of us in the UK!). Back to work might mean a less than blissful day- but, like this card says, go and find your bliss (maybe in crafting later or a little chocolate at lunch time!).
You might have missed this set- it's a superb one

It's a Mama Elephant set called 'Wanderlust' & boy, is there tons you can do with it

That little compass stamp would make perfect backgrounds, & is a gorgeous base for an embellishment too. I'll show you a card I created last week so you can see what else you could do with it

That little subway map has had the intersections punched out & coloured cardstock added behind them

And the best news- Wanderlust is in stock and there's a good number of them…for the moment at least!

Hope you get can get your hands on this set- just perfect for guys or gals!

See you next week,
