Oak House Studio: Hochanda

As we move into Summer I know the Design Team struggle to keep making and posting, so I often look for guest designers. This year I came up with the idea of combining the best the team and some specially selected Guest designers. So for 5 months I am going to be running challenges that will feature 5 designers, sending you short posts you can check out in 5 minutes. So there you have it TAKE 5.
Here is a card I made on Hochanda recently. I really loved this one, quite simple and made with just one sheet of Stamping Card.

It inspired me to decorate the envelope too. I used Waterfall Pure Colour chemistry ink and Midnight Colour Chemistry Pigment ink pad with some clear embossing powder. The stamp used is the Clematis Tower

This project also inspired the first challenge, so for April the Challenge is make "Something Blue".

It can be anything you like, you can use any Oak House Studio products you like.

If you have a blog, post your project on your blog and post a link on Facebook tagging Oak House Studio.

If you don't have a blog you can simply post your make on your Facebook page and Tag Oak House Studio.

Loving my Clematis stamp again.

Next Wednesday ( 20th January) I am off to Hochanda to show some more about what Oak House Studio is all about. I decided it was time to show some real classic Botanical design. This clematis stamp has long been a favourite stamp with me and many others who love Oak House stamps.

If you have one I am not surprised, if you don't have one why not?

For this card I have used the Serenity Prayer stamped on to vellum.

The base card is 12 x 6 inch card folded to be close to A5, The vellum is glued into the back of that.

The front has the clematis stamped on it a couple of times then 3 more clematis stamped and painted.

They have been used to layer up the rest of the flowers.
