Case'd Myself

Hello & Happy Friday!

I made a card a few months back using the SaleABration set called Avant Garden. This became one of my favorite flower sets this year so I decided to case myself and make another card but using the new In Colors, Berry Burst & Powder Pink.

These colors look fabulous together!

Berry Burst reminds me of Marvelous Magenta from along time ago and Powder Pink reminds me of Blushing Bride.

I used the Delicate Details set for the lace across the bottom. That set is from this year's SaleABration  catalog, too. I added some small clear rhinestones on the lace under the Blushing Bride Baker's Twine. 

Thinking of You Card:

Stamps: Avant Garden, Delicate Details, Handwriiten Hello's (retired)

Ink: Berry Burst, Powder Pink, Pear Pizzazz

Cardstock: Berry Burst, Powder Pink. Whisper White

Accessories: Blushing Bride Baker's Twine, Clear Rhinestones, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Can't wait to play some more with the new In Colors!

Falling For You Card Set

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Well, we survived the holiday weekend!

Of course, there was nothing much happening here since my hubby worked! I was bored out of my mind to be quite honest and just did not have the mojo to go stamp anything!

Here in Pennsylvania it has rained darn near everyday with pops of sunshine here & there just enough to tease you then came the showers again. 

They are saying it will be another week or so of this showery stuff  and today we're under the gun for some strong storms to come thru later on but in the meantime...yep, you guessed it, more showers!!

Today I have one last set of cards to share that I made for my customers last order.

She loved the butterfly paper from the Falling for You dsp  and asked if I could add a doily and a simple Thinking of You sentiment. 

I can do that!!!

I apologize for the colors being wonky in these pictures. Like I said, it's been gloomy here and it doesn't help that my stamp room is in the basement. I used Soft Sky, Tip Top Taupe & Very Vanilla on these.

Thinking of You Card Set:

Stamps: Handwritten Hello's (retired)

Ink: Tip Top Taupe

Cardstock: Soft Sky, Tip Top Taupe, Very Vanilla, Falling for You DSP

Accessories: Stitched Shapes Framelits, Lacy Doily, Soft Sky 1/8 Taffeta Ribbon, Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

These are super pretty in real life! Just love those colors and the lacy doily!

Serene Sunflowers

Good Morning & Happy Saturday!

My card today is one a customer requested with something Fall on it. 

Since I know she loves sunflowers, I dug thru all my thousands of stamp sets until I found Serene Sunflowers....an oldie but a goodie! 

Take a look...

I also had another sunflower stamp set over the years but I must have unloaded it before we made the move to Missouri a few years back. This stamp set worked well and one thing I love about it is the 2 step stamping that gives my flower the light & dark petals for a more realistic look. The sentiment comes from a very old SU set called Handwritten Hello's. I used an old Corner Rounder Punch to round out the 2 opposite corners for interest and made the main focus on that beautiful sunflower! Isn't it pretty? I'm certain my customer will love it!

Thinking of You Sunflower:

Stamps: Serene Sunflowers, Handwritten Hello's

Ink: Crushed Curry, Chocolate Chip

Cardstock: Crushed Curry, Whisper White

Accessories: Corner Rounder Punch Stamp A Ma Jig, 2 Sided Tape

 Right outside of the small town I grew up in there is a farmer's field that had miles & miles of sunflowers every Fall. To this day they still plant thousands of them and at this time each year they are amazing & beautiful to see! I'm headed that way today so maybe I can try to get a picture of them. If I do I will share it here tomorrow!
