Circle circus

This would have to be one of my favourite SU stamp sets - "circle circus".  It is so versatile and fun.  I have made these 3 cards using mostly the new colours to illustrate some of the possibilities.  Your imagination is the limit.

Card 1: 3 stamps from the set - each in a different colour.  Some ribbon , flowers and a rhinestone brad and voila!



Supplies:
Card -
Paper - gloss white c/s from stash
Stamp - "circle circus" from SU
Ink - daffodil delight, bashful blue (ret) and cajun craze from SU
Other - ribbon from American crafts, flowers from stash, leaves from Prima, rhinestone brad (in yellow flower) "circle ice" from SU
Adhesive - snail, sticky strip, large zots

Card 2: 4 different stamps from the set and more new colours.


Supplies:
Card -
Paper - gloss white c/s from stash
Stamp - "circle circus" from SU
Ink - marina mist, pear pizzazz and blushing bride from SU
Other - marina mist ribbon from SU, antique brad from SU
Adhesive - sticky strip, glue dots

Card 3: 3 different stamps and more new colours.  Tried to make a rosette with the lace trim and antique brad but was not entirely successful! Back to the drawing board....


Supplies:
Card -
Paper - gloss white c/s from stash
Stamp - "circle circus" from SU
Ink - early espresso, sahara sand and cherry cobbler from SU
Other - lace trim from SU, ribbon from American crafts, antique brad from SU
Adhesive - sticky strip, glue dots

See how many different stamps you get, and how many patterns you can make!!  It's my 'go to' set for whenever I need a background.  Stamped in silver and gold it makes fabulous Christmas backgrounds.

Happy crafting!
Cheers
Susie
