Hi.  Here I was thinking we had slipped nicely into cooler weather and today it’s a hot one again.  Oh well, variety in life is good hey?

Here are a couple of cards I have quickly made with my new stamp set Good Friend.  This will be available in the new Ideas Book & Catalogue due out next week on 1 April.  It has a gorgeous bird in the set too but I haven’t inked him up yet.  You’ll have to come back later for a peak at him.

Ok, this first one is actually using the Mojo Monday challenge layout because as I was working on it I realised it was almost identical to the sketch so I tweaked it a bit and there we go, a sketch challenge done!  

Stamp set:  Good Friend
Cardstock:  Old Olive, Red Riding Hood (a new In-Colour), Pumpkin Pie and Summer Picnic designer paper
Inks:  Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Red Riding Hood
Accessories:  Scallop Edged Punch, wide grosgrain Olive ribbon, Fire rhinestone brad, black marker

 This next one is using the same stamp set but a different layout.

Stamp set:  Good Friend
Cardstock:  Baja Breeze (another new In-Colour), Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, So Safron designer print series paper
Inks:  Baja Breeze, So Safron, Really Rust, Chocolate Chip
Accessories:  wide Chocolate grosgrain ribbon, Stamp-a-majig, gold and vintage brads

Thanks for looking! We are about to head off to the school disco!  Should be an interesting night although a little warm.
