Stamping with Carley on Create and Craft....

My second post of the day....I just wanted to share with you a taster of my samples that I have been busy making earlier this week for Carley's show on Create and Craft today at 1pm.....Hope you like them!!

My Samples

For this I used Creata silky and mirror card, Heart stamp set and a free sentiment from the internet.

For this sample I used the Creata Butterfly stamp set, Creata mirror and backing paper card, Joy craft flower and flourish dies.

I just had to use our Carley digi stamp by Sherri Baldy as my main theme for this sample. I coloured in using my Promarkers. All backing papers are from Creata , as are the cupcake/bow stamps and sentiment topper.

Creata items used for this sample are the Horse stamp, Heart 12x12 backing paper, mirror card, backing paper card, Joy craft flower and flourish dies.

So on to my final sample, I know it's so 'Oooh la la'.....for this I used the Creata Paris stamps, Heart stamps, silky/metalic card, mirror card, Joy Craft flower and flourish dies and what sets this off is this fab image called Selina, by The Stamping Chef.

Thanks so much for stopping by, hope to see you soon

My Sample

Close Ups

I first of all printed the image on to Creata silky card and cut out, I backed it on to Creata dark green mirror card, that I die cut using Spellbinders scalloped circle die. For the backing I used Creata backing paper card and I used Spellbinders decorative labels eight die to cut out Creata backing paper card and mounted this on to black Creata mirror card. To finish off I used ribbon, flower and sentiment topper from my own stash. I inked the sentiment topper using Tim Holtz distress ink Pine Needles and edged using Ranger stickles glitter glue....
