Hello and welcome here!

As promised we have some more cards created by Lorraine with the Scrap Shotz January 2017 monthly kit.

Here's another great patterned paper that makes a stunning card with the addition of simple accents, twine, a die cut and enamel dots.

Multiple Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Die cuts create lots of layers and dimension. The kit die cuts and enamel dots complete this pretty card.

A mix of patterns and clear crystal drops create an interesting mix of textures on this card.

This hand crafted dream catcher is stunning and a creative use of kit chipboard, twine and the add on wood feathers.

Thank you Lorraine for sharing all these wonderful projects.

Card Inspiration with the Sweet Dreams Kit

Hello!
Welcome here and to some wonderful cards, courtesy of Creative Team member Lorraine Melin, featuring the January 2017 Scrap Shotz Sweet Dreams kit.

This is a simple yet lovely card, Lorraine shows off this patterned paper with simple accents, the twine and die cut.

This cute coloured image pops on the the soft blue green of the paper.

The My Favourite Things Essential Cover up Horizontal die is used on this card and Lorraine added a unique detail to the sentiment, sketching around "friendship" to create a shadow.

Here's a look at a card created with the MFT Essential Cover Up Vertical die:

The Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle die provides the perfect place for the sentiment.

The inside panel from the MFT Cover up Vertical die and layers of patterned paper provide an eye catching frame for the die cut sentiment.

So much inspiration in these cards, bookmark us or keep checking back, we've got more of Lorraine's fabulous cards coming to the blog!
