Surprise Birthday Hop for Wendy Ramlakhan


Happy birthday, Wendy!!! Surprise!! We are having a Birthday blog hop in your honour! I used "Tropic Like It's Hot" and Sweet Sentiments-You to create a fun, Fall birthday themed card for you! 

One of the greatest things that has ever happened to me artistically is being chosen by Wendy to design for SugarPea Designs. I was floored and so delighted to be chosen to join the team. I have been on the team for a few years now and I love it! Wendy is generous, gracious and lovely! Oh and she has a wicked sense of humour! She is a dear friend!



Be sure to check out the lovely work of most of the SugarPea Designs Team. Not everyone could participate but they all send their love to you!

Be sure to hop along to see what everyone created and if you would like to make a card and share it with Wendy, you can link up your card at the SugarPea Designs Blog!

October 2017 Viva la Verve Sketch


Have you seen the great sketch at Viva la Verve? Oh it's a fun one...simple yet elegant! I decided to ink up my newest Verve set called the Autumn Leaves stamp set and the Falling Leaves die set. 


I stamped the leave in Burgundy, Yellow and Green and then stamped their veins in a dark gray overtop...I purposely did not line up the leaves with their veins as I wanted to give the card a more "freestyle" whimsical feel.


You should come and join the fun at Viva la Verve
There is a great prize up for grabs! The link list will be up for the whole month and we'll choose a winner on November 2 to win a $40 gift voucher to Verve.

SugarPea Designs-Holiday Product Release Day 3



Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the SugarPea Designs Holiday Product Release! Today we are featuring my two favourite sets! I love the boughs and the pine cones and the snowflakes are super delicate!


I love using both traditional and non-traditional colours on cards. This snowflake card will be easy to mass produce. I think I will skip the top layer and just do a single layer card for my other cards. I love that you could use any colour combo! Pink and greens are so pretty together for Christmas!


When I work with boughs and cones, I love adding layers. The new paper pad from the last release called "Spots and Stripes" has the perfect RED paper in it! 

I stamped the boughs in a dark green and then stamped again without re-inking the bough...that way I got the nice faded look I wanted.
