April 2015 cards

YHi everyone. I have to say its so lovely to have proper Internet service again & to be able to get this blog going again.

I do hope you all had a lovely Easter & that the Easter Bunny brought you lots of lovely goodies. I got a huge box of Bunny Droppings AKA Malteasers so I was a very happy bunny :-)

As Sylvia said in her round robin I've gone for a bit of a nautical theme but this was due to me wanting to use a particular stamp 3 different ways so please feel free to change my designs if sailing is not your thing.

At the moment I have 2 completed cards which I will add here now & my 3rd card should appear later tonight but be aware that as I've yet to complete it,  I may add extra supplies to those in Sylvia's round robin, so here goes......

Card 1 - Sailing about

This card uses the card blanks that Heather donated to the group & I wanted you to have the opportunity to use some different embossing powders that give the effect of sand (although the picture does not do it justice). If you don't want to use my boat stamp something with a seaside theme would work best. 
Also please forgive my dome being warped.  I forgot don't use heat guns near plastic as it melts it !!!


Card 2 - Card in a box

Again I've used my same boat stamp but cut elements out of it. I've included below 2 cards I did recently for a colleague at work using the same basic card design but it's the first card that I will bring the stamp for. If you wish to do a different design please feel free to bring your own stamps/punches to achieve this.
