The flowers are showing their blooms and aren’t they lovely! I pulled out the Enduring Beauty stamp set(162670) and the matching Enduring Beauty Dies(162672) for this card. The first step was to stamp the image with Versamark and then add Gold Emboss Powder to outline them. A Tip for you – wait about 5 minutes […]

YOU TOTALLY DESERVE IT
There’s nothing like a fancy thank you card to send to someone who really deserves it! I pulled out the Perfectly Detailed background stamp(160748) for this and did a lot of heat embossing. First, the image was stamped with Evening Evergreen ink onto a piece from the Fancy Flora 6″x6″ designer paper(160413). Then I over-stamped […]
THE ARCTIC HARE
Today’s card took a little thought but since there is a lot of snow up here, I decided to add some to it. What’s this all about you ask? Well because the rabbit image in the Nature’s Beauty stamp set(150528) became and Arctic Hare thanks to some Basic White cardstock and the Basic Gray ink […]

The rose bundle stamp and greeting were lined up on the Stamparatus, inked up with Versamark and then stamped onto the […]

I purchased the Falling For Leaves bundle from the Holiday catalogue an decided that it needed to be used so I […]
FOREVER & ALWAYS
Happy Friday to you and welcome to Cynthia’s Creative Corner! Today’s card was made with weddings in mind but it would also be a great card for an anniversary. White and silver are the theme for this card and I just had to add that beautiful dove from the Serene Garden bundle. I wanted to […]
A COPPER CHRISTMAS
I played with some copper embossing powder for this card to send a shimmery Christmas greeting. The layout came courtesy of Freshly Made Sketches and the Christmas Happiness and Seasonal Bells stamp sets. I threw a couple of ideas around before settling on a Christmas card and am quite happy with the results. Here’s the […]
THESE BALLOONS ARE HAPPY
These balloons are happy and colourful and the perfect greeting for a happy birthday! I pulled out the Lift Me Up stamp set and matching Up & Away Thinlits dies to create this one for The Paper Players sketch. To get the background, I adhered a piece of Naturally Eclectic designer paper to the card […]
