Miss Pinks Craft Spot

Thank you for voting for my project in Kylie's International Highlights Blog Hop - I was voted in the Top 10 so have the honour of celebrating with this Hop! Today my project features 2 items from the 2017 Occasions Catalogue, the gorgeous So Detailed Thinlets and a sentiment from Suite Sentiments which hosts a variety of sentiments for many occasions. How beautiful is this delicate die cut! It creates a statement all on it's own, no need for additional stamping. When cut it has a thin solid layer, I have hidden it with my ribbon embellishment - and I faced my "bow fear" and added a gorgeous satin ribbon bow to my card (rather proud of myself), I think it looks just perfect :) The sentiment is complimented with an Oval Stitched framelit set on a scalloped oval die cut on top of the detailed thinlet - This card came together beautifully! I dressed up the inside of the card with some simple stamping from the So in Love set too. ...

Today I have another sneak peek for you - I've used three new product lines from the 2017 Occasions catalogue I've used the stunning Detailed Dragonfly thinlets to create the focal point of my card, isn't it just gorgeous; I sponged Watermelon Wonder onto shimmery white cardstock, concentrating more colour where I would be cutting the body of the dragonfly. T he dots in the background are from the coordinating Dragonfly Dreams stamp set. The background is lightly water coloured with "stamped off" dots so they weren't too intense. I used a dauber and applied ink from the centre towards the edge of the"thanks" sentiment from Suite Sentiments to give it a faded, soft effect at the edges. I've decided to enter this card in two challeges - Stamp Ink Paper's 'Anything But Christmas"  and Just Add Ink's "Just Add...N" after all I used 3 N ew items :) Remember, it's not long til you can get...
