I have really loved playing with this stampset Epic Celebration during Sale A Bration this year. Here's a really fun card. Firstly I stamped the image randomly in Memento ink over Pool Party cardstock, then using my blender pen and Stampin's White Craft ink I coloured some of the bits in in white. I've punched the sentiment out using the Tailored Tag Punch and mounted this on Tranquil Tide Card stock.... these two colours really work well together!! Remember that for every £45...

Life seems to have got in the way of me playing with my 2nd release of Sale A Bration items. So I'll share with you another card using the Epic Celebration stamp set and Brusho's from the Spring/Summer catalogue. To create the background I sprinkled the tiniest bit of Brusho onto watercolour paper before spritzing it with water and leaving it to dry. The effects and results are different every time its amazing to watch too!! I stamped up the guitar and headphones with memento ink before...

On Saturday I held my all day workshop One for the Men, the ladies received the Truly Tailored bundle as part of their class kit. The first project I made for them was a matching gift box and card.

For the sentiment on the card I firstly stamped it in Chocolate Chip and cut that out using one of the Square Stitched Framelits and then stamped it again on a scrap using Crumb Cake. Be sure to pop make next Monday to see...
