POD Beach Time

Posted on by Liz

For my third card for the Purple Onion Designs latest release I’ve made another beach scene. This time it is a beach scene with the ocean and sunset in the background.

Taylor and Thaddeus are playing in the sand as the sun sets behind the Beach House. They can easily walk up the Boardwalk and over to the stairs when they get called in for bed time. It was fun masking the stamps together and then colouring up the whole scene. I’ve stuck with a rather limited colour palette this time as well. I used an old sentiment from the Everyday Blurbs to go with.

POD Lifeguard

I have another fun card made with stamps from the most recent Purple Onion Designs release. Brody, the lifeguard, has left his Lifeguard Chair and is carefully watching as Lilo is playing in the water. The waterline is made with the new background stamp.

The coloured panel has been cut narrow to leave for a sentiment being stamped directly onto the card base. The sentiment is from the new sentiment set.

POD Seaside release

I am surfing in today to let you all know it’s that time of the YEAR! Yup, that’s right! Purple Onion Designs is out with their summer release and it is full of summer, water, sand and Stacey Yacula. Can it get any better? I think not! There are so many amazingly cute characters that it took forever to choose what to colour up first.

But I did choose in the end. I chose Kalei, the awesome surfer bunny! I masked the Rip Curl together with the Ocean and Shoreline background stamp (a very clever stamp that can be used two ways).

Also, the Seaside sentiment stamp set is a must have. So many great sentiments! I stamped it in a colour similar to the coloured sky to keep it reasonably neutral.

Spring is definitely here and both grass and trees are turning green. So how about a card to celebrate just that?

I have used the Woodland background stamp together with Marigold. One of the things I appreciate when it comes to these stamps are the names given to the different animals. I love that they all have their own names! Anyway, they are two of the great stamps over at Purple Onion Designs, both from the Stacey Yacula collection. The sentiment is from the Everyday Blurbs set.

POD Flannel the Raccoon

Posted on by Liz

I love making Christmas cards and the Purple Onion Designs stamps are perfect for it! Here you can see Flannel the Raccoon. He is pulling his sled with two big gifts on. I wonder what’s inside. I love a good winter scene for my Christmas cards so I used one of the Snowy Trees and stamped it up three times. The sentiment is from the Snow Much Fun sentiment set.
