CASology challenge

Hi All
This weeks challenge over at CASology ( http://casology.blogspot.co.uk/) is to produce a card on the theme of Bloom. There are several lovely flower stampsets in the current Stampin up catalogue and so I wasn't sure which one to use. My favourite one is Blooming with Kindness which would have fitted the brief,but I have used it such a lot lately I thought I ought to try a different one. In the end I decided to use Mixed Bunch.

To make this card you would need the following supplies :
Card stock : Pool Party, Whisper White
Stampset : Mixed Bunch
Versamark, Pool Party embossing powder
Ink : Daffodil Delight
Piercing pack

Until next time

Lovely as a tree

Both the Less is More Challenge and the Simply Stampin Challenge have asked for cards using leaves as  inspiration this week.
The Lovely as a Tree stamp set is a beautiful  set which I recently purchased but have not used yet so this was a good chance to use it. The first one inspired me so much that I made a second one. The layout for both is similar. They both have double score lines above and below the image. The first one uses the oak leaves and the acorn which was stamped in Chocolate Chip and then  blended using the blender pen with a little Pumpkin Pie. The second card uses the group of trees and then underneath the score lines I have stamped the small leaf in Chocolate Chip,Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive.
