Wonderful Birthday...

Happy Monday,

I really thought i'd blogged this card but I cant find it so hopefully it hasn't escaped me lol

I started this by making a full sheet of the stitched lattice by cutting the stitched lattice background into an 8 x 8" square piece of bright white foundation card.  I slotted the die back into the last row and cut again and repeated this until I had covered the whole panel.  I the  cut a set of frames using white and peach foundation card using the double pierced squares set A and B foam mounted above the panel.

For the centre element i stamped the circle frame from my Larkspur elements clear stamp set adding the sentiment from the same set in the centre.  I coloured the flowers using my alcohol pens in shades of yellow and light orange and placed this in the centre.  I backed the lattice panel using a set of mats and layers using yeah and bright white.

I then stamped some of the separate Larkspur flowers form the stamp set, coloured them in the same shades and hand cut them out.  The larger flower join the bottom corner is made by stamping the main flower then stamping the inner flower ( which is a separate stamp in the set) and foam mounted this on top to create dimension.

I added the flowers on top of the Ivy Leaves cut in white and added a stick on pearl in white in the centre of each flower.

A simple card that is hopefully elegant and clean yet relatively simple to do even if like me your colouring is not 100% lol

Enjoy...

Simple Sunday...

Happy Sunday,

If you kissed any of yesterdays shows don't forget to can catch them , anywhere in the world as I keep getting asked, on catch up for up to 2 weeks at www.hochanda.com.

I thought a nice simple card today as its nice to mix it up but also to make things little easier for me!

Just a leftover piece of embossed kitchen foil backing.  A die cut lattice and a stamped image form my Elegant Stars cl;ear stamp set in black on steel pearl card.  Really simple with a couple of frames!!

More Shows 2 hour special...

Happy Saturday,

I hope you all managed to catch the launch of the One Day Special last night!  The shows continue today with a special 2 hour show at 11am till 1pm.  The show times are 9am, 12pm, 4pm and Last Chance at 7pm.  The 2 hour shows I have planned to show you loads of techniques using the Perspectives dies, The Pixie Powders, Embossing Folders and all the wonderful Cosmic Shimmer products I have on the show.

I have selected a range of quick Cards I made for the show to highlight some of the techniques and also to use the waste from the die cuts.  As hard as it may be to believe but all these cards are made with the waste pieces from other projects!

Enjoy...
