Lawnfawnatics challenge #1

20 Monday Mar 2017

I’m a huge fan of Lawn Fawn stamps and dies – if only they were a little bit cheaper here in the UK. I made this card for my grandma’s 86th birthday and she really loved it. I’m waiting for my official lawn fawn pop up box die to arrive – this is one of my home made pop up box creations! But one of my favourite cards ever and it put a smile on my grandma’s face too!

Botanical Blooms

botanical blooms, card, handmade, stampin up, tropical

I’ve been meaning to have a play with the Botanical Blooms stamp and die set I got recently from Stampin Up. I love how they bring beams of tropical sunshine to your day. Am now thinking that they would pair up well with flamingos! 

  
I started by using the stamps to create a background paper – not too dissimilar to the ones you can actually buy from Stampin Up, only my handmade version will never run out! Then I die-cut a few of the flowers to add as an embellishment (they cut beautifully by the way – not one problem!), stamped a sentiment and finished with a few Nuvo drops. I just love the bright yellow Nuvo! 

  
This is the first time I’ve used Stampin Up ink pads too – they’re so juicy and bright! I have the brights collection at the moment but am thinking I might go next for the pastels too. Not that I really need anymore ink pads! 
These cards are now for sale in my etsy shop for £2:

Had a lovely time yesterday at the craft fair. The free samples of Happy Pills made lots of people smile and the cards were popular too. 

   
 Today I have been preparing for making some exciting cards with the Sheena Douglass Day of the Dead stamp and die set, and have set up a Facebook page too.

Hello and welcome to the world of Skyebluepink. I’m planning to use this site to showcase the cards and paper goods that I make, and also to share any other loveliness I discover. 

  
Tomorrow is a big day – my first ever craft fair. All my cards are packed up, ready to go. Happy Pills are stashed in their jars, and I have a variety of lovely decorations for my stall. If you’re visiting this page after perusing my stall at the craft fair, hello and thank you! 

Over the next few weeks I will be regularly updating this site with examples of what I have been making, but for now, there is a small selection of my cards in my etsy shop:
