curry & mint Macaron

I just wanted to show off the effect of the silver embossing. It can be tricky to get a good photo of the whole project and see how nice the sliver embossing can be.
For more on the watercolouring of this card click here.


The flower on the inside is stamped in Smoky Slate and water coloured.


This next card in particular is where my inspiration came from to make these sliding easel cards in the first place. I hardly ever copy exactly from another project, but I just loved this card made by Sharon Burkuert, when I seen it on Pinterest, and had to do it the same. It's also the design I used for my stamp class... and everyone else loved it too.
But you wouldn't believe my luck... I lost the little sail stamp in between the day class and the night class, and to this day I still haven't found it : (

Swirly Bird & Swirly Scribbles

When I first got this stamp set I made a bunch of cards to show them off quickly for the new Catalogue, so some are pretty much cased from some lovely cards I had seen on Pinterest, and some were just a basic demonstration of  how versatile this Bundle really is.

This card is hiding a secret... more to come on what's inside soon : )

The card on the left has had the sails stamped and cut out separately, while the card on the right has had all the pieces of the boat stamped and cut out all together. 
This is a fun stamp set and I loved making these cards, but unfortunately I happened to lose the left sail stamp of the boat -Ahhhh!!!! : (  right before I needed it for an event Shari and I held. So annoyed with myself for that... Anyway I was lucky a fellow demonstrator could lend me one for the event  (Thanks Jacinta ). And no... I still haven't found my missing sail. Hopefully it will miraculously  just appear in front of me one day...
