New Marianne products for January

I made this card today to showcase this beautiful flourishy, foliage die released by Marianne Designs this month.  I also made a couple of background mats use some leaf stamps that I heat embossed with translucent embossing powder and then sprayed with Distress Oxide sprays.  However, as you can see I then proceed to cover most of this up but still like the overall effect.  I do love the barely there oval behind the foliage which I stamped with Spun Sugar Distress Ink pad- it's so soft but gives a gently frame for the stem.

Lavinia Make A Wish

I love the simplicity of these types of cards and I love this Lavinia stamp and how you get an extra teeny stamp for the dandelion seed head to blow away in the wind, I inked through an oval with distress inks and I think the stamp is Paper Trey Ink although I can't remember now for sure!

Busy day today, cleaning our holiday let for our next guests then Violet this afternoon :)

Marianne Fairy Silhouette Stamps

I've been loving making background scenes and using my Marianne Silhouette stamps recently.  Thi one has a bit more colour in it and my stamping after isn't quite perfect but I still like it!

The Silhouette stamps are from Marianne Design  and the sentiment was a freebie with Making Cards Magazine recently.  Details of Mariane stamp sets below:

Lavinia Something Wonderful

I've been showing my Lavinia stamps some love recently, and I've really enjoyed getting inky.  This was a very simple design done by masking off either edge of the piece of card and then sponging ink between the two masks.  I love the orange and black too - so striking!

Hugs, Julie

Marianne Silhouette Stamps

I've been practising making backgrounds with various inks and the new Silhouette Stamps from Marianne Designs make the perfect scenes - especially for Lake District type scenic cards!  

I made this one by inking through a circle so you get a nice crisp edge and then adding the trees at the edge.  These stamps are from the Woodland Set - CS1014 and there are more sets coming out soon!!

The sentiment is by PaperTreyInk and I've used a mix of Distress Inks and Adirondack Inks for the mountain scene.

Hugs, Juliexx
