New A5 WRS Stamp set : Bella


Happy Weekend everyone.
 
Well,  New Year brings New stamps and this year
 
 
have taken it a step further and produced a new range of A5 stamp sets.
Each set has a main stamp, a sentiment, detailed corners and extra stamps that you might need to create a really lovely co-ordinated card or crafty project. 
So many possibilities! 
I'm so lucky to be a DT member for them and  have been sent all the new stamp sets to play with! 

How cute and pretty is this Bella set?
 
 
 
 I've been playing around with some paper piecing on my first Bella card.
I wanted something really colourful for the Balloons and a lovely blue sky to show off the white fluffy clouds and lilac butterflies.


Quite a simple card for my first go...no patterned papers on this one.


Some challenges:

 
 
Have a great week and thanks for coming to see my blog!

Sizzix Scotty dog card...



Hello there.
Happy New Year to you all!!

Wow...Just saw that I never managed a post in December.
Too busy working, shopping and Christmas card making. 
 Just some of the cards I made and sent out!

One of my best pressies was a new sewing machine from hubby so I'm hoping to start making some nice projects on this soon.


 

I've carried on making Christmas cards between Christmas and New Year as well as using lots of the new stamp sets from Wild Rose Studio and using up lots of odds and ends of papers and embellishments for a set of Spring cards!
Look out for those coming up in th next few posts!


One of the presents to myself was a tartan mug which came in a patterned box.
I have had trouble finding tartan papers so I just had to recycle the cardboard.



 I still love using some of my very old Sizzix dies.
They are great for some quick makes!

I also raided my fabric drawers to find some linen to match the kraft card that I used.

Challenges:


This is my last day at home before school starts again and I'm back in the classroom.

Please come back and do leave me a comment!

Thank you!


Love from Sally.
