Rozzy Winning Creation..:)

Our very lovely Rozzy has just won a competition over at Charmed Cards and Crafts with this stunning card she entered.

The stamps she used on it from The Crafty Pad Stamp Designs are :-

Flourish and Leaf Accessory Stamp set and the Umbrella & Stand stamp
you can find them HERE

Below you will find the instructions on how to re-create your own version of it. :)

Here is Rozzy's gorgeous card :-

Congratulations again Rozzy..:)

And here is how Rozzy created her beautiful card :-

 I have made a 6x6 square card and covered it with Laura Ashley, Lovesong Flocked papers. I have used a circular Friends are a Gift stamp by Inkadinkado, stamped and 3D the circle, using distressing ink before attaching to main card. I have also gone around the card with distress ink.... just got this bug to try it out ....

I have then used The Crafty Pad Autumn Stamp collection leaves, single and corner to embellish the card following the flocked pattern in the paper to use it as stems for the ivy... with the addition of some pine branch leaves from Martha Stewart Punch and a Laura Ashley fabric Brad.

To decorate the inside I have used a co-ordinating paper from the same Laura Ashley range and stuck to the  contrasting colour card.
I have stamped The Crafty Pad Umbrella/umbrella stand on to a nestie oval and attached to the inside left and a further nestie to the right hand side with a sentiment and corner leaves stamp for embellishment.

June Doing The Race For Life

June Doing The Race for Life

I designed this stamp especially for the Race for Life charity run.

I have named her June because the some of the races for life is in June. :)

I shall be donating £1.00 for every stamp sold to the Cancer Research Charity.

She is quite a versatile stamp in that the Text is actually seperate to the image and so she can be used for Congrats, Good Luck, Well done etc. I have left the banner blank for you to use as you wish :)

The price for the June stamp is £3.00

This June stamp is exempt for the sale prices.

This stamp is also exempt from the challenge prize.
