We’re down below -20 C today and, although it is very pretty outside, I’m happy I don’t have to go anywhere. I’ve used one of Lili of the Valley‘s adorable stamps from the Woodland Friends set for this card and cut it out by hand. For the background I’ve quickly ink blended a sunset and then used two different Mama Elephant cover dies on top of each other to create a little scene for my fox. With a layered die cut text and some sequins the birthday card was good to go!

I have another new card from the Purple Onion Designs Christmas release to show you. Here I have done a bit of partial colouring. The paler sides have been inked up with a lighter grey shade, and the part I have indeed coloured I’ve stamped up with black ink. I’ve masked together Kringle’s Department Store and Rusty and Piper. The sentiment is from the Classic Trio stamp set.
Purple Onion Designs holiday sale means there’s 25% off on rubber stamps until 3rd December.

Today I’ve got two cards to share with you made with the Hello There die (this and all links are affiliate links) from the new Picket Fence Studios release! I coloured up the huge Blooming Chrysanthemum and used the new Hello die to cut Hello out from the coloured flower. I then put the whole thing on foam tape and the card was done. Simple and pretty!
You can see that the foam tape raises everything up from the card base.
As it is a whole Hello die it will align perfectly completely effortlessly.
For the matching card I used the cut out hello and glued them onto a base where I had stamped up the flower in a pale shade. I used a few layers of hello to raise the text from the panel and then I layered a couple of white “there”‘s to put on top. Here I also used a few sequins from the I’m Alive embellishment jar.
Here is a close-up of this one as well where you can easily spot the layers.
I’ve made a wreath as my first card for the new Picket Fence Studios (this and all following links are affiliate links) release. First I made a panel using the A2 Pierced Blanket Cover die. I’ve cut out various of the dies from the new Macrame Pot and Flora dies in different colours and then I built a wreath using the 3.0″ Connected Circles Shaker Creator die. I cut out the word there from the new Another Hello There word die in a darker matching colour (with a few white ones behind to make it pop) and put it partially into the circle before adding a small Hi and a few sequins from the All About the Teals sequin mix.

And here is a close-up
I’ve coloured up one of my favourite Tiddly Inks images for this card. I’ve done a no-line version to make her hair look blonde. The card is a red and white version, keeping other colours to a minimum. The coloured image has been cut out by hand and put on foam tape to be raised up from the card.
The snowy background frame is my Mama Elephant and I’ve used a Lawn Fawn sentiment die (in a few layers glued together) with a Simon Says Stamp premade white on black sentiment. A few red sequins from Picket Fence Studios (affiliate link) finished off the card together with a couple of stripes of red card stock.
Here is a side-on view so you can see the layers better. You can also I used red card stock for the card base.
