I've just made this for a friend who kindly gave me some Modern Medley DSP as a birthday present - I wanted to use some of it on the card, so combined two different patterns with Strawberry Slush cardstock and ink, as well as some pink Tilda ric-rac (which goes quite nicely with the Strawberry Slush I think). The sentiment is from an Archiver's set.

A couple of very early Christmas cards
For some reason, last night I was inspired to start my Christmas cards (this has never happened this early before...!). I ended up making 3 each of 2 designs , which means that 6 people have a halfway chance of actually getting a card on time this year ;)
This is one of the cards:
And here's the other:
Card bases are Docrafts kraft, ink is SU Whisper White and Poppy Parade. Sentiment stamps are Hero Arts and the others are SU.

Fusion challenge card - delicious with Crushed Curry
I saw the Fusion challenge yesterday and was inspired to make this card for it - I really love how it came out! It's a birthday card but it would work just as well for a wedding.
This is a great colour combo - I think I'll have to make a fleet of cards with these colours! Anyone care to join me? :)
Everything is SU on this card, to wit:
Cardstock - Basic Grey, Crushed Curry and Very Vanilla
Ink - Basic Grey and Crushed Curry
Stamp sets - Fresh Vintage and Banner Greetings
Punches - Boho Blossoms and Decorative Label

A "just because" card
Here's a card I made today for my crafting buddy (who lives in another country, sadly) wishing her lots of creative fun with the goodies I'm sending her.
I love the colour combo, and the grey ribbon which I think I got wrapped around some clothing I bought. Repurpose, recycle and reuse! :)

Cute card alert!
I love this card - I came up with the idea last night, and then today after work came home and made it. It's simple yet effective, I think!
The stamps are from Stampendous and the paper is "Bees Knees" from Echo Park.

A thank you card
I went to Finland for a week last month and last night made some "thank you" cards to send to the friends who hosted me there. I had a lot of fun making them (3 of the same design) even though they were very simple - it was wonderful to just sit down and play with my rubber stamps and ink!
Here is a pic of the card; it was impossible to get a good photo of it indoors, so I had to balance it on my hand outside on the patio (which is why the angle is a bit odd).
Stamps are SU (from the Affection Collection and Trendy Trees sets), as is the pink ink and cardstock (Strawberry Slush).
