Oh June, Here Already

Hello Nomad friends.  It seems the summer months have arrived!!!!   Starting to think I am time hopping!!!  Anyway, new month, new challenges!!   Over at the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity we want to see your stamped anythings featuring FRUIT, FLOWERS AND FOLIAGE.  That should be easy, shouldn't it??   I am keeping it CAS today with Lost Coast Designs gorgeous Shrubbery stamp and a profound sentiment from Carmen's Veranda........


I used Hero Arts green ink for the Shrubbery.   This is a beautiful stamp and looks great in any colour.  I stamped the Carmen's Veranda Questionable Life Choice sentiment on a scrap of the same white card and edged with the green ink and done!!!   I did originally think this would make a great sympathy card, maybe it still is bwahhahaaaahahaaa.   
 

I hope you get time to hop over and see all the lovely inspiration from the team and if you are stamping anything with fruit, flowers or foliage then link it up.   We offer a real rubber stamp prize, but we do need at least 20 entries to draw a winner.  
 

Getting Hitched

Hello Nomad friends.  A quick post for a wedding card I wanted to share.   I bought a lovely die from Honey Bee stamps called Radiant Heart which cuts the heart aperture and the radiating lines.  It's so pretty!!  Then I just added a Kort og Godt die cut bridal couple.  

I thought the yellow dotty paper gave nice contrast to the red background.

Rip Tear Collage

Hello Nomad Friends.  Been having fun this evening ripping up some scraps to make this fun collage card.  I used blue scraps, and some very pretty patterned scraps from UHK Gallery that screamed loudly at the abuse!!


I went with a confirmation theme for a boy, since we were in the blues.  My collage is quite orderly me thinks.  The circle was lurking on the desk and seem a perfect addition behind the By Lene die cut word.  Love using these people silhouetes, the big bloke by Papirdesigns and the little football player is a Dixi Craft die.

Treed

Hello Nomad friends.  I haven't been online so much the last week or so or in the craft room much either.  It's been quite nice to read a book or do some gardening instead of staring at the screen, but Mr Mojo has raised his head and suggested we get crafty before the month is over.  So today we are starting by sharing a card I made using Poppystamp dies.


I used Poppystamps Leafy Branch Oval and the cat from Cat Collage.  The letters were cut using Thanks Outline die from scraps of the green card.  It's handy norwegian thank you is shorter and uses some of the same letters LOL.  The cat and moon were also cut from small scraps of coloured card.  I used a black card base and a die cut panel of the same black card which I hit with a glitter wash.
