I was 9th in the chain for Round 6 and have created a panelled Motorcycle card!

Here's is the card I CASE'd from Cheryl. I really liked the 3 circles in the background with the focal images in front. I got creating straight away - I knew exactly what I'd be making when this arrived in the post.

Lets take a closer look at this card. I've used the 3 circles above as inspiration for the 3 rectangle panels on my card. I used DSP from the 6x6" stack Bright and Beautiful (lime circles) and die cut them with Deckled Rectangles. The Blue panel behind the 3 panels is also from the same stack. 

The inside stamping is straight onto the base! 

This stamp set and its coordinating dies are still available online. DM me for more details or head over to my online store.

I was 10th in the chain for Round 5 and have created a very textured card using a new 3D embossing folder along with some new InColours! Welcome Petunia POP and welcome back Pretty in Pink.

Here's is the card I CASE'd from Genna - I immediatey loved this card - from its rich colour combination to the gorgeous textured panels. I CASE'd 3 main elements - the embossing, the layout and 3 of the colours, just in different ratio.

Lets take a closer look at this card. 

Lets start with the Embossed panels - how gorgeous is this 3D emboss folder? Its Dashing Designs and I'm loving the details, plus it gives off 'quilted blanket' for sure. 
Next, the die cuts - you can't go wrong with a floral arrangment, doesnt matter how you layer them, its gonna look so cool!
Lastly COLOUR - Petunia Pop you are totally my jam. I'm loving all kinds of purply shades and his colour is delicious. It pairs so well with other colours. This years InColour welcomes back an old colour Pretty in Pink. SU have never done this before (retire a family colour and then bring it back) - its a welcomed comeback for the next 2 years. 

The inside carries the theme thru with an embossed strip and flower die cut.

If you don't already have Cheerful Daisies - grab it and the die set too!

I was 6th in the chain for Round 4 and have created a beautiful card with lots of rectangle and the Floral & Flowers 12x12 Specialty Designer Paper pack.

Here's is the card I CASE'd from Annette, I love her colour combination!

Lets take a closer look at this card. Using Annette's layout as my base, I cut rectangles from Peach Pie, Shaded Sprucee, Basic White cardstock and also from the DSP. The floral bouquet is made by arranging a few of the pre-printed flowers and foliage images in the papr pack. 

The inside is decorated in a similar manner. The pre-print images are so easy to play with, I wanted to use them all. 

If you'd like a pack of this Frames and Flowers 12x12" Specialty Designer Series paper - drop me an email or leave me a comment!

I was 4th in the chain for Round 3 and have created a card I'm really proud to share. I call it Pink Oranges..the oranges are not really pink, and there's lemons too, but with a pinky background thats how I'll remember it.

Here's is the card I CASE'd from Kayla - I love her crafting style! Always very trendy and with interesting, striking colours and features.

Lets take a closer look at this card. I've cut the background strips and lemon from the Mediterranean Blooms Dsp - so in love with everything Mediterranean.

The inside also features a fussycut orange, with a strip of DSP.

For the sentiment on the front, I reached for my copy of Sweetly Scripted - it has a great range of greetings and all with such a cool font styles

I was 5th in the chain for Round 2 and have created this male inspired card using the Lets Wander stamp set. There's something about masculine cards that gives me a buzz - I love creating them!

Here's is the card I CASE'd from Monique

Lets take a closer look at this card. I'm obsessed with shoes usually but these BOOTS are devine...even if they do look a like worn, smelly and perhaps even a little dirty. They are from the awesome Lets Wander stamp set currently available in the new catalogue. 

We don't often see too many males cards, others have commented in the past they can be diffcult to craft, but I always need more masculine cards with 3 guys at home and all their friends - I need lots! So its lucky I like making them. 

For the card background, I have embossed using a piece of Cajun Craze using 3D Dashing Designs emboss folder. The detailed stamping around the Lost Lagoon circle comes from Let's Wander too, its the tiny track like image. 

For the inside, I've stamped lots more boots which I coloured with Stampin Blends.

I'd say this stamp set is overlooked but it really is a great set to have in your stash. I cant wait to use the football boot image for our end of year U14's soccer team cards. The options are endless as you can colour these in any of your favourite team colours.
