Handmade Birthday card using Flowering Flourishes from Stampin’ Up!

December 29, 2014 By Michelle Last

I made this handmade birthday card a while back using the Flowering Flourishes stamp set from the Annual Stampin’ Up! catalogue. It is pretty simple and I used a mix of whisper white and very vanilla for the flowers and the sentiment.

I heat embossed the flourish with early espresso embossing powder on the Baked Brown Sugar cardstock background and simply added some flowers and rhinestones.

A simple card when sometimes simply is all that is needed, especially at this time of year.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. We had a crazy family Christmas on Christmas Day and Boxing day and have spent the last few days chilling and recovering.  I’m back to work today as I have some brand new catalogues to post out as the new Spring/Summer Catalogue launches on 6th Jan along with sale-a-bration, the best offer of the year.

You only have one more week to purchase from the current Autumn/Winter seasonal so have a quick browse to make sure there isn’t anything  you cannot live without before it goes for good.

Let me know if you would like a copy of the new catalogue!

Wishing you all a Happy New Year and hoping that the year ahead brings you peace and happiness.

I love its gentle prettiness and all those lovely little floral details.

Interactive Mini Album I've been busy behind the Interactive Mini Album

I've been busy behind the scenes creating a special mini album for my team retreat this weekend. I can't wait to spend time with my wonderful team—being creative together, sharing lots of laughs and making this beautiful keepsake. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I have a real love for mini albums. They're one of my favourite ways to preserve memories because they tell a story that's far bigger than a single scrapbook page....
