Milton Thank You from the Wild Rose Studio New Release

Image - Milton A5 Stamp Set



This is an 8" square card and has one layer of purple, one layer of white and another layer of purple, before the top panel.  I sort of went to town with all of the stamps and spent ages colouring, but I adore how it turned out.  I used my copics for coloruing on this one.

I do love how the frame can be used both ways to create horizontal and vertical greetings, and the greetings look great on their own too.

Dashing Through the Snow

Morning all

I am back with a lovely card I made using my Cardio Stamps, I love using these as they are so quick but really effective.


I used my lilac distress ink and a template negative, to create the shaping, I then stamped around the edges, but went again with my embossing powder to create the snow effect on the leaves. I added a shaped sentiment and a little bow to complete.

Don't forget I have Candy in my sidebar, if you have not already entered and you can find more candy on the Wild Rose Studio blog.

Celebrate Everything

Morning all

I am back with a lovely card using those gorgeous products from


I made a Celebration Card

 I used

Image - Harvest Mice
Die - Flower Frame
Papers - Harvest Meadow


This card was made back to front, this allowed me to use the Flower Frame Die as the centre piece.  So I cut this from the cream card stock and then created an outer frame out of the Sue Wilson Die, I placed the beautiful papers behind these and then created a green layer behind, placing this onto another Sue Wilson Die and finally creating the card blank for it all to fit onto nicely.  I added the copic coloured and scan n cut out image a lovely sentiment and some tonic drops in gold, before finishing with a bow and a fancy button.

The card blank is a Create and Craft half scallop


The card has several layers created using Sue Wilson's double pierced square dies.  All have been distressed.  The contrast is the distressed cream card stock.  I added holly sprigs, a bow and flowers to finish the look along with glitter for that frosty feel on the flowers, cosmic shimmer glitter drops and tonic pearl drops.

The image is coloured in copics

West Ham Football Friendly Engagement Card

Hi all

Thought I would pop on and share with you a card I made at the request of my wonderful husband Matt.  We were invited to attend an engagement party for a work colleague.  Matt asked me to make the card in very specific colours to represent the couples love of their football club - West Ham.

Making an engagement card is not difficult however being faced with these specific colours was on this occasion.  Matt chose the coloured card to meet the club colours and then I just stopped dead in my tracks, not colours I would normally put together.  Maybe I would put red and turquoise together but these seemed so much different.

Anyway after getting over the initial struggle, here is the card I made


An 8" card made from  white card stock


The burgundy initial layer, followed by the pale blue and then the burgundy again.  Topped with a white embossed piece before I started the focal point.
I used my Sue Wilson dies to create the focal point and the sentiment flag holder.  Although you cannot see it the two squares are interlinked, by cutting one.  I wove the ribbon through these and wrapped the ribbon around the layers.  I added a big triple layer triple bow and a fancy rhinestone button, before adding the red roses, blue lilies and the foliage.  I finished off with tonic drops in the corners, around the dies and the end of the flag.

I actually loved it when I had finished it and the party was great.

Christmas Night Scene

Morning all

I am back with a lovely card using those gorgeous products from


I made a Christmas Card

and  I used

Dies - Reindeer and Cottage


The card blank is a Create and Craft half scallop.  I used black as the base layer.  On the second layer I cut out a grand nestie plain circle.  I then tore paper to create hills from the bottom up, before using the cottage die to create the scene.  I added glitter to the hills, and embossed the top layer.  I finished with adding the reindeer in gold mirror card and added a red nose with tonic drops.
