Happy 16th!

Another day, another reason to celebrate.

I made this card recently for my nieces 16th Birthday. I find teenagers are interesting to create for. They are no longer kids and need something a little grown up. I love this stamp set for this reason. Elegant, sophisticated  but not overly girly.

I must admit I am a bad Aunty when it comes to knowing her tastes. So not knowing if she was a fan of pinks or purples, I decided to use Bermuda Bay instead. I love this colour, I hope she does too.

Congratulations On Your Engagement!

Not so long ago we had some wonderful news, my nephew Andrew got engaged to the lovely Laura. Now I wanted something elegant but simple, so instantly black and white came to mind. 

I needed to leave heaps of room to write, so just added a little something to one corner.

Favourite Colour Combo- Crazy Crafters Blog Hop July

Thank you for joining us for another monthly Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. This month our theme is favourite colour combination.

You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Rosalie Desmond or may have come from the person previous to me in the list below. If you get off track at any time, the full line-up below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.

 

 

Not sure if I have said this before on my blog, but I have most certainly said it in a number of forums, "I love brights!". For those of you that aren't familiar with the way Stampin' Up! categorises their colours, they place them in colour families. My all time favourite is brights. As the name suggests, these cover a range of bright colours.

 

 

 

 

The colours I used today are my two favourite colours, Melon Mambo and Bermuda Bay. If I had a choice I would fill my world with this colour combination. It always make me feel happy.

 

 

 

 

 

For this card I used two stamp sets, Flowering Flourishes and Happy Birthday, Everyone.

 

 

 

Happy Birthday, Everyone

Flowering Flourishes

 

 

Thank  you for joining us today. I hope you find lots of inspiration from the blogs in our hop.
