Press On

 Hello & Happy Saturday!

Yesterday was quite the stormy day here in PA! We did get a bike ride in first thing then ran some errands. By the time we got home the sky was very dark and it just left loose. Many area's around us had flooding. Hopefully our weather today will be much quieter!

Today I have the second card to share that I made with the new Press On stamp set. There are lots of things used on this one...

My coffee cup was paper pieced again using the Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP.  I colored the lid with a Dark Cajun Craze Stampin Blend. This was all done on a Stitched Shapes Framelit diecut. The sentiment comes from the same stamp set and was diecut with the Stitched Rectangle Framelits. I seem to be reaching for them alot lately!

Under my focal panel is a layer of punched out shapes using the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch.  I punched 2 of the leaf DSP prints and 2 Mint Macaron prints with the Gold Foil in. These are layered on top of a piece of Mint Macaron that was run thru the Big Shot with the Tasteful Textile EF. I love the added texture it brings to my card! This card has lots of layers which I don't make as often anymore. I added a Mint Macaron bow with retired ribbon and some Champagne Rhinestones for some sparkle.

A Cup of Thanks

Hello & Happy Friday!

Yesterday we went out for bike ride.

We did almost 3 miles when my bike tire blew out!

Scared the bejeepers out of me! LOL

Had to walk my bike the whole way back but we had a fun time doing it!

Lots of people were so kind to stop and asked if we needed help.

We hit Walmart up for a new bike tube but they were all sold out!

Ryan got us some off of Amazon so hopefully they do not take long to get here!

We have a spare one in the garage that Shawn will put on before we head out again this morning for another bike ride. Let's hope we don't have to walk again!

Today I have a cute card to share that I made on Wednesday.

I need some Thank You cards to mail out.

I pulled out a new set from the August - December Mini Catalog called Press On.

It's coffee related so that's right up my alley!

I used some Fall paper for this one and paper pieced the center of my coffee cup.

I haven't done that technique in ages so it was fun to do and gives it a nice look!

Press On is a million dollar achiever set created by Joyce Feraco.
