Inspirational Card with Everyday Details meets Thoughtful Expressions

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I love the greeting on this card ~ it would be perfect for someone starting a new job, a wedding card, retirement, starting a family or maybe someone starting on a mission!

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I often use the colors in decorative paper paper packs as my inspiration for color combo’s, however sometimes I want to use a combo that doesn’t have a decorative paper pack………….. so I make my own!

I also wanted to share another card using some of the card/inks that are retiring at the end of this month, although I have made this any occasion card I think by changing the greeting this would make the perfect Mother’s Day Card.

They are meant to be swapped, however it struck me that they would make perfect center pieces for a card and that is what I share today – oh and there is a short video on how the trading card came together!

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Over the next few weeks I shall be sharing some cards featuring the 2022 – 2024 In-colors. These will be retiring at the end of April, but they are likely to sell out long before that time, so if you would like to stock up on ink refills and card …… then this is the time to place your order!

Today’s card features Starry Sky, a rich blue which I have paired with Balmy Blue and the Everyday Details Stamp Set giving a bit of a shabby chic vibe going on!!
