Hi everyone! It's misty, damp and dreary here in West Yorkshire today. Only six weeks to the shortest day, and then we're on our way back to longer days.
I've been on a bit of a roll...I made a card last night and two today. They're all a bit different for me, but I enjoyed making them using different techniques.
Card No.1 - I embossed the whole base card background, then stamped Anna Griffin rose image with Tuxedo Black onto a Spellbinder labels twenty. The rose is coloured with - Barn Door, Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet, Shabby Shutters and Bundled Sage distress inks. Pearls and seam binding are from my stash.
Card No.2 - I made my own background by stamping an assortment of flourish patterns from Vintage Garden by Stempelglede, using Rusty Hinge distress ink. I then stamped the Anna Griffin sentiment onto a Spellbinder labels two with Chocolate Impress dye inkpad. I rubbed rusty hinge ink over some white card to make matching rolled roses then added some peach spotted organza ribbon.
Card No.3 - For this card I used an Anita's stamp that I've had for years and never used. I stamped directly onto my card base with Tuxedo Black, then stamped again onto pink card for the flower and green card for the leaves. I then paper pieced these onto my card. The sentiment is on the same stamp. Finally, I added a little pink twine bow.
Apologies for the long post, but I thought it was better than posting them all individually.
Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy the rest of today xx

They're all absolutely gorgeous Sasha! I'm not sure whether to be encouraged or down cast about six weeks to the shortest day... It was dark and gloomy enough in Buckingham today! Vx
these are really lovely Sasha but the rose one has my heart! Wow-that is a stunner! You do such beautiful work!
Lovely cards Sasha and all so different! Love the 2nd one though:) Beautiful background you created, I haven't any Stempelglade stamps but they are are lovely. Glad to see you are so positive re the dark days but I haven't done any Xmas shopping yet!!!

Your cards are always amazing and the 2nd one is my favorite. It's about the color and the stamps. Soooooooooo gorgeous. That Stempelglede stamp is on my wishlist and the way you used it for this card is breathtaking!

Wow, you're on a roll with these beautiful cards Sasha! Love the custom made background, so beautiful, and really like the dyed rolled roses you made, such a great embellishment. Love your colouring on the rose-I must try colouring with distress inks, it's a beautiful effect, and the spellbinders shape is gorgeous! And I love the CAS design for your last card, so glad you rediscovered your rose stamp, it's very pretty! A wonderful set of cards!

Hi Sasha,
I love visiting your blog because you make awesome cards to say the least. Love all of them but the second one is my fave. Love the flowers and the fact that you used rusty hinge to colour the flowers. And I love the background paper. The first card is very pretty as well and so is the third one. ALL lovely!
