    Hi all,the Little Claire vase was very easy to achieve,i made an aperture mask of the vase outline and then stamped Little Claire through the aperture. Colouring was with pro-markers, i glittered the wings and then glazed the vase with versamark and embossing powder. The bunch of daisies are the same daisy as the umbrella daisy-very easy to cut out and look lovely shaped for dimension.

    The black sky effect in the silhuette cats card was achieved by punching a little circle from a post-it and sticking it down,i then used black dye ink on a brayer,remove the circle to reveal a lovely shiny moon-which i just had to glitter!

    The little love birds stamp is fantastic for simple but striking wedding stationery, and i have used it for easter cards and a new baby card.

    Thanks to Steve and the gang at Little Claire's for showing my cards!

    I agree that your cards are great, Maria and thanks for explanations too. The brayered cat card is beautiful - very effective with the silhouette stamps.
