Ornate Garden Cards

Good Morning & Happy Friday!

Yesterday I sat and played with a new suite of products that Stampin Up released early called Ornate Garden. It's a beautiful suite of stamps, dies & paper! Oh and an embossing folder!

The DSP is very pretty with lots of floral prints!

This card uses the Daisy Punch.

Card Details:

Stamps: Ornate Thanks, Daisy Delight

Ink: Early Espresso, Mint Macaron

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Mint Macaron, Ornate Garden Specialty DSP

Accessories: Daisy Punch, 1/2 Circle Punch, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Both cards are addressed and headed out in the mail today...destination unknown!

I have been trying to make cards to send out to let people know they in my thoughts during this strange time we are all going thru.

Last evening I popped out for my weekly groceries.

The wearing of the masks is just odd to me but one I feel is necessary!

And the grocery store line to check out was wrapped around the store. 

Everyone followed the rules but there was such a cold feeling about people.

No warmth, no smiles...nothing.

I hope things soon clear out so life can get back to some sort of normal...

Shimmery Thank You Notes

Hello & Happy Monday!

Today I have a busy day ahead so I am going to get right to my card!

These were made by customer request last month.

She sends many Thank You cards and for these she wanted something for the January season.

I knew I could not use Christmas paper so as I looked thru paper packs I found this DSP from last year. Frosted Floral Specialty DSP has such a pretty shimmer to it.....it was perfect for my cards!

I used Stampin Up!'s Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes for these which are great to write a little note inside.

It's funny, one of these cards arrived in my mailbox last week from Audrey.

We gave her a Texas Roadhouse gift card for Christmas as she loves to go there with her family!

Card Details:

Stamps: Daisy Delight

Ink: Night of Nvy

Cardstock: SU Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes, Whisper White, Frosted Floral Specialty DSP  (retired)

Accessories: Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Rhinestones, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I love the shimmer that the DSP adds to the cards!

A frosty feel for January!

Christmas Thank You's

Good Morning & Happy Friday!

It's another rainy, dreary Friday here in PA.

I seen on the news that we had 27 Fridays for the entire 2018 year that it rained!

Crazy!

Today I have 2 different Christmas Thank You Card Sets to share.

These were apart of that huge order I did back before Christmas.

These use the Whisper White Notecards & Envelopes.

The first set uses a sentiment from the Daisy Delight stamp set.

Paper is from the Dashing Along DSP.

This 2nd set uses a sentiment from the Dashing Deer stamp set.

Paper is All is Calm DSP that is retired.

The cardstock is a retired In Color from several years ago, Lost Lagoon.

I put alot of work into the 2nd set since I cut the DSP with the smallest Stitched Square Shaped Framelit. It helped to use up more DSP that I seem to hoard! LOL

I still have 1 more pack to make for my customer but it is going to wait until after the beginning of the new year. I am still giving my hands a break....

Daisy Delight

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

A nice day is on tap! 

This morning it's a bit chilly out but they say we are going to get up to the mid 70's later on! 

I WILL TAKE IT!

Today I am expecting my first order from the new catalog!

It has a few stamp sets in it with some supplies that we were not able to order on our pre-orders. The one set that caught my eye was called Healing Hugs. It's a new line of stamps called Distinktive and that means the stamps are more detailed, almost a 3D affect. I'm anxious for that to come!

So today, I am sharing a card we made at our stamp get together last weekend using the Daisy Delight set. I had this card created before the Delightfully Daisy DSP retired. I ordered 2 packs of it in the last year so I would like to continue using it up!

The paper really makes the whole card stand out and then with the Daisy on top it just makes it look a bit more realistic. Daisy Delight has carried over to the new catalog and is one fantastic set!

My sentiment comes from the Happy Birthday, Gorgeous stamp set.

Card Details:

Stamps: Daisy Delight, Happy Birthday, Gorgeous (sentiment)

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Old Olive

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Whisper White, Delightful Daisy DSP (retired)

Accessories: Daisy Punch, Lots of Labels Framelits (retired), 1/2 Circle Punch, Old Olive Glittered Enamel Dot, Dimensional, Tombow Liquid Glue

This card will definitely bring a smile to someone's face even if it's a rainy day!

The colors just make me happy!

Daisy Delight

Hello & Happy Friday!

It's been a long week and finally the weekend is here!

A long holiday weekend, too!

My hubby is off today so it's an even longer weekend for him!

He is planning on washing and cleaning inside both the car & truck today since our weather is to be nice! I'm not sure what i'm going to get into today but I have a few projects on my stamp table that I might try to finish up!

Today I have a set of cards to share that I made using the Daisy Delight stamp set.

This set was huge when it first came out a year ago. It is every bit of lovely and I have used it quite a bit in the last year. 

I made these up without a sentiment on them since my customer likes having this type of card on hand that have no sayings so she can use them for almost any occasion. I really love this paper and stamp set. Sadly, the Delightful Daisy DSP was on the retired list and has already been sold out. The stamp set will carry over to the new catalog that goes LIVE in 1 week today! WooHoo!

Card Details:

Stamps: Daisy Delight

Ink: Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White, Delightful Daisy DSP

Accessories: Daisy Punch, 2 1/2 Circle Punch, Daffodil Delight Stitched Ribbon, Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

A fun set of cards to create and perfect for spring/summer time!

I personally love that Daisy Punch!

You're In My Thoughts

Hello & Happy Friday!

Hope your all staying cool out there!

Today I think is the worst day so far! High temperatures with high humidity equals BLAH!

I have been hibernating inside playing around at my stamp table.

Today I worked on a pack of cards for my customer.

I wanted something summery for this set of cards because I know my customer uses these for many different occasions. I pulled out this Delightful Daisy DSP to go with my Daisy Delight stamp set. This is a super popular bundle in the new Stampin Up annual catalog! So popular that they are having a hard time keeping it in stock! I think it makes the most beautiful cards!

You're In My Thoughts Card Set:

Stamps: Best Thoughts (retired saying), Daisy Delight

Ink: Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight

Cardstock: Calypso Coral, Whisper White, Delightful Daisy DSP

Accessories: Daisy Punch, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Yes indeed! It's Friday!

With Sympathy

Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Last day of our beautiful weather so I decided to make 1 card and spend the rest of the day out in the yard with the girls.

I wanted to make a card today using the Daisy Delight stamp set. It's a nice set but I wish it had more of a variety of sayings in it. I used the Flourishing Phrases stamp set for my sentiment.

Incase you couldn't tell, I really like using this style of card that Patty Bennett created last year. Besides the tilted panels this style has also become a favorite!

I used the pretty watercolored looking print that is in the Delightful Daisy DSP that has a touch of Daffodil Delight in and Calypso Coral. I thought is was a great sheet of paper to create a sympathy card. I also stamped the daisy image on my envelope 2 times. With the photopolymer stamps it is easy to do with perfect placement. 

I also finally opened my roll of Calypso Coral Umbre Ribbon!! 

It is divine and ties a bow so nicely! 

With Sympathy Card:

Stamps: Daisy Delight, Flourishing Phrases

Ink: Calypso Coral

Cardstock: Calypso Coral, Whisper White, Delightful Daisy DSP

Accessories: Daisy Punch, Gold Faceted Gem, Calypso Coral Umbre Ribbon, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Hope you like!

It certainly is!

That is all for me today!

Gift Bag Tag

Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

We had such amazing weather here! 

I wish it could have lasted forever but unfortunately the clouds & rain are back today!

Today I have a project to share that I made up for my customer as a Thank You for her card order.

I found this yellow gift bag in my stash and thought that it would go perfectly with the new Daisy Delight stamp set & matching punch.

I know the pictures aren't the best. I already gave the bag to my customer so I could not take anymore pictures.

I love this new stamp set and best thing of all, it comes with a matching punch! I sometimes prefer the punches over the framelits because of how quick & easy it is to punch something out. I also love that the stamp set is photopolymer and you can see they it for perfect placement!

Gift Bag Tag:

Stamps: Daisy Delight, One Big Meaning

Ink: Early Espresso, Old Olive, Crushed Curry

Cardstock: Whisper White, Crushed Curry

Accessories: Two Tags Bigz Die, Circle & Scallop Circle Punches, Amuse Crinkle Ribbon (on bag), Whisper White Baker's Twine, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue
