Trying something new for today

 Happy Monday , had a busy morning sorting out my paperwork and blogging some future DT bits and bobs but this afternoon I was at a loss.

Then I remembered a set I had brought a little while back and decided to pop it away as I wasnt sure how to use it

Well big knickers pulled up this afternoon I decided to play ~ If I had looked at it properly inside was a little booklet full of instructions, you just can't go wrong

So the set I am talking about is Crafters Companion Birds and Bloom, a stamp and die set that allows you to make over the edge cards. Adorable I have had a great afternoon , following the booklet I made no mistakes and here is my finished card

It's a dull day so a bit hard to catch the over the edge part so I hope you can see it.

In the set you get a few sentiments and some lovely foilage stamps. The three flowers I stamped, coloured and fussy cut out , stuck on with dimensional glue . I also stamped part of the main stamp again to give me another little chippy bird that was also stuck on with dimensional glue.

The sentiment was matted using Crafters Companion Textured Cardstock, using sticky pads too give it some height.

And finally I coloured up using Tri-Blend markers , I adore them so much 

Thank you for looking

So I got creating and I ended up with a Bingo and used them all

Firstly off I used Anna Belle Birthday Wishes

The Sentiment is from Celebrate Joyfully Emma

I coloured up using Distress Ink refils and Derwent Inktense

Now onto the Tiddly Tac Toe board (I couldn't resist saying it again)

Dies ,I have used two dies the lovely ribbon threader and also a shaped die for the sentimemt

The Ribbon used is Jam pot Ribbon - Blackcurrant from Crafty Ribbons

Patterned paper was used on the background ~ I used a Distress tool on this and slightly ruffed up the edges

I used a flowery Embossing folder and added some Lace to the edge

I finally added some flowers and some fun buttons

Thank you for looking

Have a lovely day
