Spring Card-io


I enjoyed making some Card-io Christmas so much last year that I bought some everyday stamps. I am looking forward to visiting their stand at Ally Pally for more ideas on how to use them. I used Backyard Blooms and Springtime sketchy floral stamps sets. The Inkylicious sentiment worked perfectly in the centre. I love the way the sketchy stamps work. First I stamped the flowers, tiny leaves and butterflies in coloured ink then stamped the outline stamps over the top in black. They say they don't have to match perfectly which is just as well as my first attempt isn't perfect.

Hi Marianne, I love your pretty card, beautiful stamps and a lovely design. Card-io didn't come to Glasgow this year and I was so disappointed, I love watching Wendy doing her stuff, but Ally Pally is toooooo far away for me, hope you have a fab time, Kate x
