An Update From The Studio

Good morning from a the sunny Dutch coast where we’re taking a few days break to recharge and rest. It’s the first time taking the dog too so his reaction to the sea will be priceless.

This week it was my turn to post on the WOW blog and the theme for the month is Embossing Glitter. I’m really embracing my glittery side and find myself adding some to almost everything these days. I never thought I’d say that.

I have this awsome stamp set from Jane Davenport which I used on this card and thought it reminded me of Asian art which inspired me to go for this Asian design.

WOW And Catherine Pooler Blog Hop

Hello there, I hope you’re all good and ready for another week of fun and inspiration. Today marks the start of the blog hop between WOW Embossing powders and Catherine Pooler and I’m totally thrilled to be part of it.
I fell in love with this stamp from the “Love Is In The Air” set the minute I set eyes on it as it’s just gorgeous. I can see it’ll become one of my go to stamp sets in the future as it’s so virsatile.
As well as the stamp set I also used two beautiful Catherine Pooler ink pads and created the watercolour background by smooshing some on my craft mat and spritzing it with water. You really don’t need much as the colour is so juicy and intense.
I used Chocolate Caramel Pearl powder from WOW to emboss the image and the contrast is perfect.

Pretty In Pink Baby Card

Happy Monday from a very stormy and wet Luxembourg. I hope the weather’s good where you are?

This week marks a very significant change for me as next monday I’m going to be having a full hysterectomy done. Without going into lots of horrid details basically it’s something I’m actually looking forward to as it’s been a long while coming. By a twist of fate this weekend was Mothers Day here as if to make a point but I’m not sad about it, in fact I think I’m ready for this next phase of my life. I’ve had my beautiful girls and couldn’t want anything more. Grandmother-hood bring it on.

Funnily enough I was also asked to make this new baby card recently which also set me off thinking about grandkids.

Pretty, girly and sweet with a pinch of glitter was the brief I set for myself so that’s what I did using my WOW embossing glitter and some shiny Glintz powders to cover my die cuts.

I love the dimension too it really brings it all to life.

It’s up on the WOW blog today and if you haven’t taken part in the hop yet I suggest you go over there and first read my post and then find out about the hop. There are some super prizes to be won.

Anyway I’m off as I’ve a busy week ahead.

Lots of love

Jaine x

WOW Embossing Powders and Honey Bee Stamps blog hop

Hello there and welcome if you’re new here. I’m thrilled to be taking part in this hop between WOW and Honey Bee Stamps. I was sent this gorgeous package from Honey Bee and I couldn’t wait to play with the goodies inside.

They very generously sent me a fabulous flower border stamp and die called Zen Floral which has a very useful die to go with it. I used it to create this bordered card along with a Honey Cuts die called Hello Gorgeous Words.
