Card Recipe:

• Image - Saturated Canary Geekin' It

Geekin' It

Oh my word, I'm in love with these papers.  They're just my colours and I love the muted tones.  I coloured the image to match the papers and used lilac backing card to matt the layers.  I also used some of the paper to paper piece my Arianna Sprig die.

I love the stitched look around the panels which I think creates a bit of a vintage look and I rounded two of the corners around the image to soften it up a bit more.

• Coffee in the Arbour Maja Design papers
• Neenah Classic Crest White Stamping Card

Geekin' It

Today's card is another one made with someone special in mind, although to be honest it's probably more my style than hers, and I'm not entirely sure she likes pink as much as I do.  Whoops!   The theme is a bit book-worm-ish, although it's meant to relate to the recipient's job (she's an accountant) rather than paperbacks.

I was trying really hard to get the colouring right, and was doing ok until I got to her boots, where I seem to have changed the light source from overhead to then coming from both the left and right at the same time.  Shhh, don't tell anyone, and I'm sure they won't notice!

I'm really loving these papers at the moment too.  They're Magnolia papers and so pretty.

Also don't forget there's still a massive SALE at the Stamp Basket, including the image and papers used in my card.  Lots of new discounts have been applied yesterday, so pop over there to stock up while the prices are slashed.  It'll keep your craft stash topped up so you can keep busy in the dark and dingy months!  :0)

Geekin' It Note Book

It's Annette here today, and I've got a cute decorated note book to share today using one of the new Saturated Canary images.  I thought that this image was perfect for a note book.

I've added a bit of lace, some ribbon, a pine needle die and then I've added my text in white gel pen.  That's it.  I didn't want to add any 3D embellishments because I thought they might get pulled off if the note book was slipping in and out of a handbag, so I kept this project flat for that reason.

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Geekin' it Saturated Canary
• Memory Box - Pine Needles die
• White flat lace
• Brown card

Pop over to The Stamp Basket to see the lovely array of products on offer.
