Welcome to the InspireINK Blog Hop for June 2020. The Theme this month is My New Favourites. It’s really hard to pick a favourite from this years Annual Catalogue but I think that Whale of a Time Suite Collection might be it!

I have made a double z-fold card to play with the stamps and the Designer Series Paper and have added some images from Seaside Notions Stamp Set. I have stamped on the Designer Series Paper, used the embossing folder with Seaside Spray card stack and sponged ink over it to highlight the gorgeous embossing. I punched the Whales from the Designer Series Paper – how clever is that?. The turtles are fussy cut from the Designer Series Paper. I had such a great time making this fun card. I hope you like it too.

Please get a cuppa and a comfy seat and come enjoy our hop – I can’t wait to see the inspiring projects my fellows will have for us. Click below to be amazed!

Welcome to the Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop June 2020 – the theme is ‘Brand New’. So this is my very first entry to this hop with my very first ever scrapbook page showcasing the first ever blooms on my Peony Rose Plant – lots of ‘brand new’ there! I have also used brand new product from the brand new Annual Catalogue!

Welcome to our Home Decor SU Style Blog Hop for May 2020! I hope you enjoy our designers choice hop.

I have this plain wooden storage box in my bedroom and it has been crying out to be decorated for some months. I have used the Peony Garden Suite and Forever Flourishing Dies.

I stamped straight on to the wood without sealing it as i like the soft effect from the slight bleed of the ink. I cut some leaves from the Forever Flourishing Dies in Vellum and Brass Foil sheet. The 3d flowers are cut from shimmery white card stock. I have embedded a video further below which shows me assembling these flowers for a different project.

Why don’t you get a cuppa and a comfy seat and have a wee look around our blog hop by clicking below – I know the ladies will have some amazing Home Decor projects to share – please let us know what you think by leaving some encouraging comments – thank you
