Let's Go Tropical!

Good arvo, (from chilly Melbourne, Australia), I hope you are well & ready to stamp!!

This weeks blog hop theme for Kelly's blog party is New (Normal), as in our world has a new normal now... I took this as being literal & have used a new stamp set! This stamp set isn't one that I would usually use, but seeing as we are at home lately & I won it, (while at a SU! event?), I thought I should have a play with it, of course!

I have this card to show you, using the Timeless Tropical stamp set. I also have a confession - Ive never used this stamp set, it just didnt do anything for me, but I am falling in love with it, now that I'm actually using it!! (Inspired by Susan Wong)

I find it incredible how when changing the sentiment, it can change the way the card looks!!

Ive used the Timeless Tropical stamp set, as mentioned earlier, gold embossing powder, Stitched Nested Labels dies & fussy cut the flower & leaf.

It's such a cheery card, don't you think? You can order these items and more here & have it sent directly to your home - how convenient, right? That way you can work on your own New (Normal) projects too! 

Thanks for stopping by, I love reading all of your comments below.

Love, In The Shape of a Card!

As mentioned in my last post, I have received a few cards from fellow demonstrators lately & am loving that I can share them with you.

World Card Making Day was a couple of weeks ago & my mates were busy indeed!!

Have a look at their creations!

 Jenny & I have known each other for many years & cross paths at various SU! events, so to receive a card from her is pretty special!

Her message of support may have made me smile & tear up all at the same time!!

Here, Jenny has used the stamp set, Charming Cafe with Berry Burst with matching ribbon & markers with Softly Falling embossing folder (R).

How bright & cheery is it?

Using Crafting Forever, Sue fussy cut the scissors image & popped it onto Dimensionals, so that it matched the sentiment. It is just perfect with Follow Your Art DSP, isnt it!!

I look forward to finding her among 600 other fellow demos when we attend OnStage 2019 in Sydney in November!

Mel caught me on an emotionally flat day, so this ray of sunshine absolutely turned me around!! He message was beautiful...

She has used Everything Amazing, a stamp set that didn't do anything for me, but now it does!!

Sometimes you have to set it in 'real life', as they say, to appreciate it, hey?

Thanks for staying close to see these cards, Im so happy to have shared them with you!!


Happy stamping! Jo.
