Christmas With Carla


Carla has created two fantastic cards using both of this month's new digital sets. She printed the images at a very small size to fit into the different sections of the die cut base, then coloured them all with pencils. She added some additional images from other sets to complete each card.

Interactive Fun


Carla has created two fun, interactive cards using the new Barnyard Birthdays set of digital stamps. Her first card features the little pig, coloured with pencils, sitting beside a piggy bank with a secret birthday message. While her second card has a set of barn doors that open to reveal a somewhat surprised looking horse. Cute!!

Butterfly Collection


The idea for the Butterfly House digital stamp set came from Carla, who suggested I draw a range of large, realistic butterflies. As you can see from the cards below, she has taken them and created an absolutely beautiful collection of greeting cards.

Jam Jars


Carla printed the fabric top from the Jam Jar set of digital stamps onto patterned paper, printed, fussy cut, and paper pieced it over a second printed image. It's a great way to coordinate the different elements in a project.

Birthday Wishes


This beautiful card was created using several of the images from the Tea Time Favourites set of digital stamps, perfectly coloured, and arranged onto a fabulous die cut mat. Carla added a mix of sentiments from different sets to fill the remaining spaces and complete her design.

Birthday Balloons


Carla added "strings" to the balloon images from the new Bountiful Balloons set of digital stamps, using a fine line, black pen. She coloured the images with pencils, fussy cut, and then popped them up for some extra dimension.

Goat Club


Carla has coloured two of the images from the new Goat Club set of digital stamps to create her cards. As you can see from the photos, she added lots of beautiful texture to give the impression of hair, and carefully followed the growth pattern for a more realistic look.

Seasonal Gates


The images from the Seasonal Gate set are perfect for creating cards for various holidays and celebrations through the year, as you can see from the two projects below. Carla used the winter gate, printed on kraft cardstock and coloured with pencils, to create a beautiful Christmas card, and the summer gate for a fun and colourful birthday greeting.

More Hats!


Carla dressed the Over the Back Fence crew with cowboy hats from the new There's A Hat For That set of digital stamps. Now they look as though they're headed to the stock yards to choose some new friends! So cute! Her second card features Finn, looking warm and snuggly with his brand new knitted cap.

Traditional Christmas


Carla has created these two beautiful Christmas cards with images from the Jingle Bells set of digital stamps, which she coloured with pencils in a traditional colour scheme. For her first card, she fussy cut around two of the bell images and used them to frame her holiday sentiment. Her second card features a star-stencilled background that coordinates nicely with the colours in the image.
