Laura Mackie UK Stampin' Up Independent Demonstrator

I just love the Perennial Lavender papers, they make pretty notecards quickly ☺️💜

Stampin set used is ‘My Small Business’

Papers Perennial Lavender currently reduced @ £9.99 for a pack, normally £11.75

The horribleist card to make is a sympathy card, and sadly I had to make one this last week, 😞

I always go simple and understated, the new Changing Leaves bundle I felt fitted the bill perfectly, using the embossing folder with Basic White cardstock to create the base layer of my card. I heat embossed my sentiment from the Unbounded Love stamp set in Gold, I choose this sentiment as I felt it just felt that little more personal. I added a few die cut leaves also from the Changing Leaves bundle, with some gold ribbon from my stash.

Sentiment - Unbounded Love stamp set
Changing leaves, stamp set, dies and embossing folder.

Every thing I’ve used is available via my online shop, link in comments below.

Here are the 3 cards I made with the New Ephemera packs, I’d been excited to see these and try these new products! And they didn’t disappoint, they are top quality 💌

What are Ephemera packs???

They are pre cut images and/ or sentiments, great for when you need a card in a hurry or maybe your starting out then these are a great place to start, simply grab a pack of pre cut and scored card bases and envelopes and choose an Ephemera pack, add some adhesive and your good to get started

The Ephemera packs feature in the catalogue page 19 or you can find them online just search ‘Ephemera’

Any questions please ask 😊

Loved making this for a gift for a wedding my sister attended last week, I love making stuff like this! Really feel like I’m let loose ☺️

I went for a really neutral soft colour palette to give an elegant soft feel, white flowers with a mix of lots of greenery, I used Smoky Slate cardstock to die cut the mr & mrs letters, using the retired large letter dies, the other wording I did on my laptop just using word, which I printed on Basic White cardstock,

The 3d frame I had but they are available from IKEA ☺️
