Silhouette Australiana Cards for Paper Rose

Hi There

Today for Paper Rose I would like to share with you a set of Silhouette sunset cards.

These three cards were so simple to create but I love how they turned out. 

The backgrounds are made using Distress Oxide Ink pads and a brayer.

Distress oxide colours are Dusty Concord, Seedless Preserves, and Carved Pumpkin.

After braying the colours onto cardstock ( starting from the lightest colour to the darkest ). 

I have sponged around a cloud stencil that I made with card stock and a cloud border die cut to create the shadowed clouds on this card.

The sentiments are heat embossed using white embossing powder on black card.

Supplies used:

Paper Rose

Stamping Bella Oddball Valentines

Hi there,

Thanks for joining me today for my turn for Bizzy Bec's blog.

I would like to share a card with you using gorgeous Stampingbella stamps.

I love this Oddball stamps and I have used two sets for the card. 

I fussy cut around each Oddball 

and connected them with a die cut heart.

The two oddball's are coloured with Comic Markers and so is the heart. I have added a little shimmer to the heart with a clear Wink of Stella brush pen.

The background uses both the Sizzix Thinlets Mixed Media die and Avery Elle's Wonky Stitches

Peonies for Paper Rose

Hello again,

Well I think life has very quickly turned back to normal. I feel that it was only such a short time ago that we were planing for Christmas!

Today for Paper Rose I would like to share a series of cards using the gorgeous Peonies Stamp Set. For fun lets use some Christmas colours!

All the flowers have been coloured in with Copic markers.

All three cards are simple layering of the backgrounds and coloured flowers. 

There is a matching die to go with the Peonies stamp set but in this case I didn't want the white outline so instead I have fussy cut all the flowers out. 

To blend them into the card I have drawn around them with a black sharpie to get rid of the cut edge look.

The background die cut layers for this card, and the Happy Birthday sentiment, have been foiled using my GoPress hotfoil machine.

This Card uses the following:

17148 Peonie 4 x 6" stamp set

16969 Quatrefoil Layer 1 Die

16972 Quatrefoil Layer 2 Die

17448 Happy Layered Die

17358 Birthday Layered Die

For this card I have cut out 2 layers of the Stitched Oval stacking Die to add dimension.

The Hello Friend sentiment is stamped in VersaMark and embossed with black embossing powder.

This Card uses the following:

17148 Peonie 4 x 6" stamp set

16969 Quatrefoil Layer 1 Die

16972 Quatrefoil Layer 2 

16551 Stitched Ovals

16416 Hello Friend Sentiment stamp

For This card I have kept all the layers clean by just layering white on white. The only coloured features are the flowers.

This Card uses the following:

17148 Peonie 4 x 6" stamp set

17247 Vine Background Die

17646 Congratulations Layered Die

Thankyou for stopping by to have a look. I hope you like these card ideas and give them a try.

Until next time

a new adventure with Paper Rose

Hi there

I am so excited to be sharing my first post for Paper Rose

Todays card is using their cute Laughing Animals stamp set # 17592. I love this sweet stamp set and there is also a matching die so you don't have to fussy cut #17593!

I have coloured all of the stamped images using Copic markers but used them in different ways to give a few different looks.

Here the scalloped circle frame #16742 after cutting has bee hot foiled using my GoPress foiler.

I have also foiled the Happy Birthday Sentiment #16874

Here I used the Hello Layered die set #16951 for my sentiment I have cut it out 4 times and layered them all together for extra dimension. The background is created by sponging distress oxides over a stencil. 

I have used the Lovely Day Sentiment stamp as  well and die cut it out using one of the banner Dies from the Banner 2 set # 17583.

For the final card I have coloured in the background with Copic markers as well as the stamped image. I have die cut the Grass Edge die # 17571and stamped it with the Happy Birthday Sentiment stamp #16428.

The stamped quote that comes in The Laughing Animals stamp set # 17592 is stamped on one of the Cloud Border dies #16817.

Thanks for stopping by and having a look.


until next time
