On Stage Swaps #6- The Tranquil Wonder......

Following on in my Mini Series of General Swaps from the Stampin Up 2018 On Stage UK Telford event the other week... read more about the series here...

Today I bring you the Tranquil Tides & Wisteria Wonder... just a very small selection of these... much to my surprise...

Aren't they all lovely... Thank you ladies... not just for swapping with me... but for your truly inspiring makes...

Sweet & Sassy & Simple! Thank You

Took me years to purchase the Sweet & Sassy dies... as I am not "into hearts".. and find that I only ever used them for Valentines cards... which I don't usually make a lot of...

But so glad I bought them... my attitude seems to be changing... gosh aren't hearts useful!

So this has to be one of the simplest cards I have ever created... but the recipient absolutely loved it!! As indeed I knew she would...

Though maybe I should have grabbed Perfect Plum as that is her absolute favourite colour... but when there is a Wisteria Wonder small square card blank (10.5cm from A4 or 4 1/4" from US Letter) just sat there... which is her 2nd favourite colour...well!!

So a simple die cut heart aperture... followed by Elegant Eggplant inking and stamping of the lovely Thank You greeting in Heartfelt Blooms...

And a card popped in an envelope and in her bag... in the minutes it took her to walk down to my house to collect her Stampin' Up!order...

Though I think it would look even better with a white embossed greeting!! But that would have taken me too many seconds...

And I have just realised (as I searched for the links for you)... that if you ordered Sweet & Sassy Framelits... plus one pack of card and one inkpad... the total would be £45.25.. and then you would get the Sale A Bration Heartfelt Blooms stamp set for free... Think how many cards you could make in an hour... 48 from the one card pack would be no problem! Bargain...

Wisteria Rose Wonder ...

A simple stamped and watercoloured card...

On Shimmery white card... matted onto Pear Pizzazz and a Wisteria Wonder card blank...

Wisteria Wonder Rose... Pear Pizzazz leaves... Elegant Eggplant greeting... 

And oops... apologies for late post! Normal service should resume soon... 

Wisteria Rose Wonder ...

Now you may think me even more mad than usual... but this is one of my favourite makes using Rose Wonder... even when it is another one that is very "not me" in terms of the colourway... and it only took minutes from start to finish!

But before I share more... don't forget it is Wednesday... and the new weekly Deals are up! I will be ordering tomorrow, Thursday 8pm if you are local and want to save yourself that postage! And note that this will be my last Sale A Bration promotion order... a freebie for every £45 spent... you know the rest!

Ink up stamp in Wisteria Wonder... over-ink with Elegant Eggplant ( I used the ink pad where I could but finished off the job close to the rose with my trusty marker pen) and stamp onto left hand side of panel...

Ink up leaves in Elegant Eggplant and stamp to the top right of panel... then ink up and stamp an Elegant Eggplant greeting to the bottom right...

Mount onto Elegant Eggplant mat... then onto Wisteria Wonder 5" square card blank...
