A Touch of Ink

 Hello & Happy Saturday, Friends!

Hope that your weekend is off to a great start!

I am headed to my stamp table to work on some Fall card kits for my next Stamp Day w/ Friends get together. I promised some pretty Fall cards! You would never know that Fall is around the corner as hot & humid as it is outside. I always say the humidity feels heavy when we have dewpoints in the 70's. 

Anyways, today I am sharing the 2nd card from Thursday's Stamp Day w/ Friends get together. I always try to have a sympathy card made because we usually always need them at some point. This card I created a long time ago and finally decided to pull it out and make this with the girls. It uses an oldie but goodie set called A Touch of Ink.

Card Details:

Stamps: A Touch of Ink (retired SAB 2021), Woven Heirlooms (retired)

Ink: Misty Moonlight, Balmy Blue

Cardstock: Misty Moonlight, Balmy Blue, Basic White

Accessories: Tasteful Textiles 3D EF (retired), Stylish Shapes Dies, Square Layering Framelits (retired), Misty Moonlight In Color Enamel Dots (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I love these 2 color of blues together, so pretty!

This card came together in less than 10 minutes since I always have all the diecuts ready. All the girls have to do is stamp and adhere.

Fabulous Frames Birthday

 Good Morning & Happy Thursday, Friends!

Another cold morning here in the northeast but warmer temps are on the way!

We are in for a heatwave today (30 degrees) if you can believe it! LOL Yesterday we did not get out of the teens. I hate to see what our heat bill is gonna be next month.

I've got a quick card to share with you today then a busy day ahead so let's get to it!

Card Details:

Stamps: Woven Heirlooms (retired)

Ink: Old Olive

Cardstock: Pool Party, Old Olive, Bird Ballad DSP (retired)

Accessories: Fabulous Frames Dies (retired), Pool Party Ribbon (retired), Gold Enamel Dots (retired), Glue Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This one was so simple to put together as I left the paper and that gorgeous frame die do all the work! I have been working hard on pulling out the retired stuff and creating cards. I have a bin full of cards made in all different occasions so far. I also have been picking at Audrey's next card order that I hope to get delivered to her over the weekend depending on her schedule.

Woven Heirlooms

Hello & Happy Wednesday!

We had a beautiful day here in PA yesterday!

Clear blue skies and lots of sunshine that helped melt that ice & snow!

Tomorrow more snow is on the way and let's hope it's not too much!

Today I have card #4 from Saturday's Stamp Day w Friends event!

We made 5 all occasion cards.

This one is a sympathy that uses the Woven Heirloom stamp set from the Annual Stampin Up! Catalog.

My card base is Seaside Spray then a layer of Woven Threads DSP which is retired. 

Then I took a scrap to Rococo Rose cardstock and ran it thru the Big Shot with the Tasteful Textile 3D EF to give it some texture.

My sentiment was stamped in Seaside Spray ink and diecut with the Circle Layering Framelits.

The flower is from the retired Thoughtful Blooms stamp set from last year's 2020 SaleABration.

I stamped it with Seaside Spray ink onto Seaside Spray cardstock.

I used the Small Bloom Punch to punch out my flower and added it with a touch of Multipurpose Liquid Glue and added a rhinestone.

Card Details:

Stamps: Woven Heirloom, Thoughtful Blooms (retired 2020 SAB)

Ink: Seaside Spray

Cardstock: Seaside Spray, Rococo Rose, Whisper White, Woven Threads DSP (retired)

Accessories: Tasteful Textile 3D EF, Circle Layering Framelits, Small Bloom Punch, Rhinestone, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Another flat card for easy mailing!

Thinking of You

 Hello & Happy Saturday!

We woke up to rain this morning!

We really needed it as we've not had much in the last 2 weeks.

That might throw a monkey wrench into Shawn's day since he was going to clean out his garden & flower beds. I am going to head to my stamp room to finish up Halloween Treats and get my card lady's order packaged up!

Today I am sharing a set of cards made for my card lady.

She wanted a pack of Thinking of You in Fall colors & leaves and I hope I accomplished that with this set!

Everything on these cards is retired except for the Woven Heirlooms sentiment.

I love everything about Stampin Up except the fact that nothing sticks around very long from year to year! The Magnificent Maple stamp came out a few years ago but it has always been a favorite of mine! I try to use it as much as I can! Just look at how nice it stamps!

I also paired up my retired leaf with retired Sweater Weather DSP.

I do have quite a bit of this pack left so I will use it as needed.

Card Details:

Stamps: Magnificent Maple (retired), Woven Heirlooms

Ink: Tangerine Tango (retired), Sahara Sand

Cardstock: Tangerine Tango (retired), Sahara Sand, Whisper White, Sweater Weather DSP (retired)

Accessories: Champagne Rhinestones, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

You all know me well enough by now to know that I love mixing old & new products together for a great card! I'm sure my card lady will love these!

Woven Heirlooms Card Holder w 4 Cards

Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope you had a nice weekend!

Saturday was a nice day and I managed to get my card order delivered and finish up laundry!

I even got to see my friend Deb for a few minutes as she stood in her driveway and we were down on the street still in our car. Yea, that social distancing thing is just still odd to me!

So, today is my cleaning day and with having a bum neck, not sure what I will get accomplished.

I have another Card Holder and 4 Cards to share with you today!

I have been on a roll with making these because they are so fun!

My Card Holder is made with the same Woven Threads DSP as Debbie used in her class.

I have had my eye on that suite since the catalog went live last June and I finally ordered it recently.

I used a different layout for my cards than hers.

My stamp set, Woven Heirlooms is perfect for a variety of sayings which is what I used on each card.

Project Details:

Stamps: Woven Heirlooms

Ink: Seaside Spray, Rococo Rose

Cardstock: Seaside Spray, Rococo Rose, Whisper White, Woven Threads DSP

Accesories: Heart Punch Pack, Circle Layering Framelits, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Oval Layering Framelits, Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon, Rhinestones, 2 Sided Tape, Mini Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This Card Holder is already SOLD!

I gave the green one with the Daisies on to my card lady yesterday and she just raved over it!

She is to let me know how many more she wants this week so you'll be seeing more!

Good thing I have enjoyed making them!!
