First up we have a lot of trellis with climbing plants in our garden
and I've tried to create the trellis using a grid stencil from My Favourite Things.
The blooms in real life are Clematis but these ones are from the
Altenew Vintage Flower set with a sentiment from Mama Elephant: Make a Wish
Next up I wanted a monochromatic look and although my house isn't
Lakeland stone I've used another My Favourite Things stencil to
create a 'brick-effect' wall with a window die from Clearly Besotted.
The birds and tree stamps are from Card-io Majestix and judging by
the racket these birds seem to make outside my bedroom window at
all hours I think there must be more than three!
Very creative ideas on your gorgeous cards. Clever and fun, thank you for the inspiration.
ReplyDeletelove the cards, the grey one kind of reflects our weather at the moment ;-) I too love clematisses and have about 40 kinds at my allotment, some died so I lost count
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards Sarah. Love the colourful flowers. X
ReplyDeleteLove these cards Sarah! The flowers are soooo pretty (trellis features in the future plans for my front garden too) and the monochromatic one is just WOW. So impactful. I guess your real-life birds have good lung capacity, or they've been practising specially ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are both gorgeous, Sarah! Love the floral trellis and the monochrome card with the window die cut creates such a great scene :) Have a great weekend x
ReplyDeleteWow! Just loving that monochromatic look Sarah and that stamp set is glorious. Your pop of bright flowers is so beautiful on the first card.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the racket outside your window. We have little owls at night and greenfinches, blackbirds, those azure winged magpies in my card today, a couple of collared doves and a robin doing battle with cockerels, dogs and donkeys! No rest here ;-)

ReplyDeleteBeautifully designed cards !!
ReplyDeleteBoth lovely Sarah with great stencilling! I love the second one - so dramatic in monochrome, it has an almost oriental feel.
ReplyDeleteTwo great cards, I think my fav is the mono one, such a great layout.
