I am really pleased that the Sheltering Tree stamp set has carried over to the new catalogue. I hadn't had a chance to use it yet and with a few family birthdays approaching I thought now would be the perfect opportunity. Its lovely to stamp with and I can't wait to use it again.
With winter long behind us now and summer on its way, I found it fitting to give these cards a spring
like feel.... This is what I love about this set, just a change of colours and your projects can look like any of the four seasons.

The additional stamps included are so cute. The broom, the swing and the bicycle are all fabulous and with the stamps being photopolymer you can easily see where to line up your stamp where you want them to be.
I ùsed my Scoring Stylus tool and Simply Scored scoring board to make a raised border. I also used various punches and layers to give the sentiments some dimension.
I hope you have enjoyed my card project today. Come back on Saturday for my next project using those scraps of DSP that you can't bear to throw away.
This card is my very first attempt of Punch Art. One of my good friends daughter was turning 2 a few weeks ago and she is obssessed with Peppa Pig, so, after a quick search on Pinterest, I knew exactly what I wanted to make.
I had a lot of fun making this card as Punch Art was a new technique and the style was very much out
of my comfort zone. I was absolutely thrilled to find out that Florence loved her card!
There isn't one single card that I based this on, to see the many different versions on Pinterest just click here.
The Envelope Punch Board is really handy for when you need an envelope to match and fit a handmade card.
Here is the custom envelope I made using the Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack.

I hope you have enjoyed this project. Make sure you check our the Retiring Products...there are some great bargains at the moment.
It was my Sister-in-Laws 50th Birthday recently so I made her this lovely card in a box. The card in a box is the one card design I've probably made the most. I think they are unique and really fun to make!
The box folds flat and fits into a C6 envelope for easy posting. Just make sure you don't forget to put a large letter stamp on these when posting!
I used the Flower Shop Stamp set with the coordinating Pansy Punch and the Petite Petals Stamp Set with coordinating Petite Petals Punch. I also added some butterflies using the Bitty Butterfly Punch.
I made my own background paper by using the Hopeful Thoughts stamp set by stamping the leafy image in Versamark Ink onto Whisper White cardstock. I then sprinkled Silver Stampin' Embossing Powder all over the stamped image. I then used the Heat Tool to set the embossing powder to give it a raised, shiny finish.
Finally, I added the Happy Birthday sentiment and some Rhinestones and then wrapped her birthday presents in coordinating wrapping paper and Lost Lagoon Stitched Satin Ribbon.
One of the projects I have for you this week is a screen card I made a few weeks ago. I had a lovely 3 days visiting my grandma and aunties in Utrecht (Holland) and I wanted to say Thank You for their hospitality.
I CASED this card (copy and share everything) from a fellow Pinkie called Linda Parker - click here to see some of her designs on her youtube channel.
I chose Hello Honey for this card as its such a warm colour and I wanted my card to brighten her day. I used the Hopeful Thoughts Stamp Set as one of the stamps is perfect for the background. I combined this with punched out butterflies adorned beautiful with rhinestone jewels for a bit of glamour.
I also distresssed the edges with the Stampin' Distress Tool. (In the next few weeks I am going to be doing a feature on all of my favourite Stampin' Up Tools )
When I arrived at my Grandma's house in July I was really touched to see that the card in a box I had sent to her for her Birthday in April was still on display (if you haven't seen a card in a box before, make sure you subscribe to my blog as I am planning on making an extra special version for a birthday in October).
This card doesn't fit in a standard envelope so I made one using cordinating designer series paper and the envelope punch board. The envelope punch board is perfect for those occasions where you spent ages making a card only to find you don't have an envelope that fits!
I would love it if you could leave a comment to let me know what you think about this card and also any ideas you have for any other colour combinations.
Here is a list of the other supplies I have used to create projects - if you click on the pictures, it will take you to my online shop!
