Bluebell with Friend

Today's card features another new Wild Rose Studio image called Bluebell with Friend, another of the new paper pads (Peach Blossom) and another of the new dies.

The papers are just too pretty to cover up, so I've used a spot of lace, some cream seam binding and added some more interest with a bit of stitching, rather than lots of embellishments.

By the way, there's a huge Spring Sale at The Stamp Basket at the moment, so grab a crafty bargain and stock up on those bits you've been drooling over before they're all gone!!

Squirrel on Branch

Today is my first play with the new Wild Rose Studio Bluebell images, and I have to say, they are CUTE.

I particularly like this one with Bluebell looking at the little squirrel on the branch, and wanted to use this image to make a card for a special friend who's been a real rock for me recently.  ;0)

I coloured the image to match the pretty new Wild Rose Studio papers, and even the hubster was looking at the papers saying how much he liked them.  Now that is a first!

To top of the WRS hat trick I've also used one of their new dies, and chalked the flowers in purple and leaves in green, to match the papers.  Because the papers are quite detailed, I didn't want to hide them up with lots of embellishments (plus the recipient is a bit of a C&S kind of gal) so I just added a bit of natural coloured twine (which I coloured with the wedge end of a purple marker), and secured it around a purple button.

The button actually looks really pale in the photo because the light is shining off it, but it's actually a bit darker in real life.  A little trio of purple pearls and some pale green liquid pearls on the die and image finished it off.

Bluebell with Hedgehog


Hi all,
I couldn’t resist making a birthday card with one of the fabulous new Wild Rose Studio stamps and papers! This image is the adorable Bluebell with her little friend hedgehog! I love this new collection of stamps and the new paper pads, too – this one, appropriately named ‘Bluebell’ is full of gorgeous lilacs, and purples…our Netty is going to love it!



I’ve kept the design simple for this card to show off the image and pretty papers.

Stamps: Wild Rose Studio ‘Bluebell with Hedgehog’

Embellishments: 4mm snow white pearls

A Little Thanks

I've used a lovely Docraft stamp and a simple masculine layout and colour scheme.  The bunny reminds me of Peter Rabbit from Beatrix Potter and he's been coloured in blues to match the papers.  The sentiment is a Memory Box die.
