 Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. If you caught my post last week for Bumbleberry's you'll have seen the grey tulips I painted and so many people really love how it turned out. I love creating with that grey but this week I used it along with adding a pop of colour on this very simple card design. When choosing the stamp, I decided to go with a closely drawn floral arrangement for a loser style card and the PinkFresh Studio Full Bloom stamp was perfect for this card!

Hi friends Can you believe how close we are to Autumn of 2021?! These last two years have just flown by for me! I’m hanging on to summer as long as possible with this gorgeous Paint-A-Flower Lotus Outline Stamp Set! I bought this set as it looked a fun challenge to color above and under water the same image.  The stamp set is still available and you can buy here Altenew Paint-A-Flower Lotus Stamp Set I white heat embossed onto vellum the sentiment and to give added depth and texture to the underwater scene.

 Well Hello, I hope your well? Todays card is using one of the latest trends. Mutti sentiments with one die to cut out all the sentiments in on go.

You can simple mix and match these and stamp them in any colour you like.

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. Today I'm showing you an elegant colour scheme for card making, and although it uses grey ink, this helps elevate the card along with the gold and navy colours. You can easily adapt this card design, but I like to keep elegant cards simple with only a few cohesive colours and a metallic embossing powder in there to add a touch of glamour.  Written and photos Elegance with simple colours:  Start off by heat embossing the Altenew Cartoon Tulips in embossing ink and heat set with gold...

Hi everybody! If you're like me, you have a lot of Christmas cards to make for friends and family. I am making more of an effort this year due to the global pandemic so will be sending out twice as many cards as I normally do.  If you're making a tom of cards, you don't want to spend a lot of time creating single cards but you also want them to be beautiful. The answer is this amazing panel die from Hero Arts. ONE cut is all it takes for a clean and simple card! If you kept them to...
