This week I am featuring a beautiful stamp set by Studio Katia called Merry Poinsettia.

I really struggled to create my card for this weeks challenge due to being unwell & even sitting at my desk for short periods of time was exhausting so as I have kept this card as simple as possible for that reason.

 I stamped & heat embossed my chosen images onto Canson XL watercolor paper and also heat embossed some leaves and the largest of the poinsettias onto a spare piece of watercolor paper and then coloured my images using Sap Green, Undersea Green, Naples YellowQuinacridone Red  Daniel Smith watercolors

I fussy cut the leaves & large poinsettia before adhering them onto my image and then lightly water coloured around my images.

For my sentiment I die cut Simon Says Stamps Believe wafer die and then added some "splats" of paint, crystal drops & a few TuTu sequins to finish.

This week I am featuring Lawn Fawn's Upon A Star stamp set and the images are just adorable.
I have created my background by blending a mix of Distress Inks & Simon Says Stamps White ink over Canson XL watercolor paper. When I was happy with the colours I had blended I stamped and heat embossed some of the accessory stamps in this set onto my background & also heat embossed my sentiment ready to pop onto my card.

 The adorable bunny family have been stamped in Memento, coloured with my copics and then fussy cut using my Tonic scissors.

For my pop up element I added some double sided foam tape to my black card stock strip across the bottom of my card & also to the back of the fussy cut bunnies & some of Simon's Mini Stars.

This week I am featuring the absolutely gorgeous Beautiful Flowers 2 stamp set & I really do love this set & have so many ideas for how to use it.
I stamped my images onto Canson XL watercolor paper using InkOn3 Fadeout No Line colouring ink pad and then coloured them with Daniel Smith watercolor palette


My next card was created for the STAMPtember® Facebook live event so those of you who saw our lovely Heidi on that will have already seen this card but I wanted to share it on my blog today as well as this one was coloured with my copics & it always amazes me how different stamps look when coloured with different mediums.
