When the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine asked if I wanted to be part of a Stamper’s Challenge that involved me playing with Altenew’s Painted Butterflies I couldn’t reply ‘Yes’ quick enough lol. And I wasn’t disappointed, I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed getting all inky with these stamps, they are Brilliant!

Keeping it real simple for this month’s entry to Avery Elle’s Embossing challenge, in fact it’s just a little difficult to see the embossed part of my card, but it’s those fabulous double pierced rectangles that I can’t get enough of and I used one of these to create a subtle border for my scene.

And can you see I have the new Amazing die too, soo happy and loving it in gold, Jamie & the AE team are ‘Amazing’ my goodies arrived to Australia in record time and they are nothing but fantastic to deal with. I was lucky enough to win last month’s challenge and had fun spending my winnings and more (wink)!

Another sympathy card for the stash (phew) and today another really easy technique, using up some scraps and embossing some sweet flowers… ticks all the boxes! I filmed as I created so you can watch the process.
For all these great Penny Black products you can find the links below!
Other Supplies: Cardstock – American Crafts – Powder. I’m thinking the green cardstock is a Bazzill one and called Parakeet… do you know? I did know that I can’t get it here and it makes me sad, it’s one of my fave colours and totally hoarded.
Gotta say that I fought with this card to the end, but had so much fun that I can’t complain. These Painted Butterflies are one of my most fave sets from Altenew that I couldn’t resist using them for their First Video Challenge…. Also I’m using those frosted sheets yet again….
I’ll be back tomorrow with another video! I’m in the middle of 4 days off and have more friends visiting so please excuse my lack of blog visits, Hugs,
I have a really quick publication share tonight as I’m totally enjoying my holidays and haven’t even had a chance to make any cards yet! I also just got back from a visit to my brother and SIL in Gladstone (only a 8 hour drive away) but it was so nice to see them, we ate way too much they have the best Indian restaurant across the road and to be honest it’s worth the drive lol.
So I thought I would share this publication for The Australian Cardmaking, Stamping and Papercraft magazine where I was asked to use one die… four ways and this is what I came up with using some fab MFT products (my apologies in advance for the photo heavy post).

Hopefully I get some home time now and you might see some new cards, but I pick up my new Scooter tomorrow so I might actually be out with the wind in my hair instead.
Playing with some glittery die cuts at Scrapbook Boutique today and I’m loving the lack of glitter on my workspace, clothes, face… well, you get what I mean lol. I filmed as I created just in case you wanted to watch.
You can see my video here or Watch it at Youtube.
