Hello and welcome aboard our Cardstock Carnival Australasian Close to My Heart Blog Hop.
If you have arrived here from Lauren Moore– then you are in the right place.

Today I would like to share with you my artwork which features Close to My Heart’s beautiful Cardstock Colours. Cardstock is such an integral part of my craft room and I love to mix colours.
For this bright page celebrating my youngest son, I started with a black Cardstock base. Next I cut my White Daisy cardstock to 11 x 11 and drew an organic freehand border around the edge to give some definition. Then I began to play with colour.
This page is built from scraps of cardstock which I have sorted into colours, stored close to me so I can reach for them on my craft table.
The squares measure 2.5 x 2.5 and I have also hand drawn a border on them and finished them off with “Tom” cut in White Daisy using the Classic Alphabet Thin Cuts that are in the Core Catalogue. Z3655.
The colours I have featured is Sapphire, Clover and Evergreen.
Our Cardstock carnival is available all through March until the 31st.

This card is using the cute new stamp and thin cut – When it rains. Z4424.
I have paper pieced the umbrella with cardstock as well as her dress and boots. I then covered the umbrella with liquid glass and now it shines like it is wet with rain. I used the grey woodgrain paper from the March April Mix ins Paper Pack – X9038 as the background.
I hope you have enjoyed my projects today and I would love you to leave a comment before heading to the next stop with Maz Wood:
