Celebrate With Background Blocks Bauhaus

Hello & Happy Tuesday. 

Today I have a quick card using the Background Blocks Bauhaus stamp which was released back in August. 

This stamp, like all the Background Blocks, is great for quick cards and adding fun patterns. 

I stamped the block twice across the top of my white card panel (9.5 x 13cm) in VersaFine Clair Morning Mist ink. 

I then used a trio of Stampin' Up! Markers in Pretty Peacock, Not Quite Navy and Grapefruit Grove to colour some of the semi circles. 

I finished by adhering the panel to a Concord & 9th Sorbet card base and added a fussy cut celebrate from Mid Century Modern Everyday Sentiments. Plus a trio of Midnight enamel dots.

A restock of this stamp, all of the July, August and the popular Mid Century Modern collection is due in the studio week beginning 22rd August, so not long to wait now. 

Plus I will have sorted the new USA shipping following the tariffs by then too.

Clean & Simple Floral Celebration

Happy Wednesday.

Another week is zooming by, but I was determined to squeeze in a little creative time and give some inky love to the Stencil - Ink & Flip Layering Flower. 

It's been ages since I joined in on a card making challenge and today as my creative mojo had taken a wander a couple of challenges came to my rescue! 

Firstly I used CAS Colours & Sketches current sketch for the layout of my card. You can see the sketch HERE and below.

I then decided to use a challenge for my colour choice today and so I went to AAA Colourful for inspiration. Seen HERE and below.

I used Concord & 9th Sweet Pea and Dragonfruit for the stencilling and I added some Cranberry Enamel Dots to add a third colour. My sentiment choice is from Simply Said Blocks. 

Short(ish) and sweet from me today, thanks for stopping by.

Celebrate In Style!

 Hey & Happy Tuesday!

I shared a peek of this card over on the unikoltd Instagram yesterday and I have finally found a little bit of time to share it here with you all :)

As usual it is a clean and simple card and I was inspired by all the recent orders of Background Builders: Seeing Stars and Sentiments Outlined to combine them and make this masculine card.

It's hard to see in the photo, but when I stamped the sentiment I made a little blip. The awesome thing about this style of font I've used for the sentiment, is that I could colour inside the lines to cover up the blip and avoid wasting it! 

I used The Stamp Market inks for this card in Cobalt, Peony, Melon & Citrine. 

Fingers crossed I can squeeze in some inky crafty time this evening, I'm itching to use some florals that haven't seen ink for a while!

Until next time, stay safe & well.
