Beautiful you gift bag and cards

Hi
It is Tracey here with my inspiration project  for this month for CraftDee BowZ.  This project was a challenge for me as i am not a huge fan of red and i struggle with clean and simple designs as usually i love to embellish my projects with a ton of flowers ,gems, ribbons etc.
The cards are 6x6 inch so a i had to make a really large tote bag for them to fit into. This makes a fabulous gift for someone who likes to send handmade cards .
I have used the Stampin up stamp set called Beautiful You for the cards and the sentiments also come in the set  .. I colored the images with promarkers and added a simple piece of spotted designer paper as a border down one side.

The flowers on the bag are Stampin up flower shop stamps and i used the coordinating punch to cut them out .
The cute little red bows and the pretty single looped  ombre bow have been created using my Craft-Dee Bowz bow maker tool  ...

A Nautical set for In2craft

 

Hi 
I have been sent these amazing new stamps from Woodware to create with for  In2craft. .
These stamps are to be shown on Hochanda on sunday 13th may .You can get your hands on them earlier than that by visiting In2craft. now and checking out the full range of these woodware stamp sets .  They have unbeatable  prices AND no p and p charges ... I have been using 3 stamp sets  from the range [SEE PREVIOUS POSTS] I have enjoyed working with them and i still have one to use ... 
 I have to say that these fab stamps are so beautiful and detailed when  stamped that i decided to keep the projects simple and let the designs speak for themselves. I have created a framed piece using the Nautical collage stamp . I have simply stamped it with altenew dark ink from the blue set. it looks a little like  the peacock feathers distress ink  .I then used the seashells images which i fussy cut out to decorate the fame corners adding a bit of rope to set it all off. 

The  centre  stepper card base was made using a die from presscut. I then used seashell papers from Craftwork Cards Harbour Boulevard 8x8 pad. finished off with the same corner design as the frame and the sentiment that comes with the seashells stamps .
