Have a fabulous day.

The sun is shining it is such a beautiful day out and I would love to have the day off just to enjoy it.

I has two card gathering this weekend, Friday night was for Close to My Heart. We created three cards using the stamp of the month fo rJuly - You've got Flair.

My son is learning how to use my camera so he took over taking the card portraits, not bad me thinks.

Have a great day.

Happy Friday.

Third and final.. (for now) card with Tulip Bouquet. I stamped the image with StazOn Black then used my watercolor pencils to add color. I added light green pearls as small accents.

I have 2 card workstops this weekend, one tonight with Close to my Heart then in Sunday Stampin' Up! so I will post some of the cards from those maybe tomorrow or next week.

Supplies: Cream and green cardstock, Designer Paper – K&Company Rubber stampede – Tulip Bouquet, Kaiser Scrapbook - Pearls.

Have a fabulous day.

I tried to do a little vintage on this card. I love these crochet blossoms, I wish I new how to make them.


Have a great day.

Supplies: Cream and brown cardstock, Designer Paper – DCWV – Luxury Stack, Rubber stampede – Tulip Bouquet, Imaginisce – Crocheted Blossom, Craft Essentials – Rickrack ribbon.

Someone please hand me a ruler :). The main layer looks so off kilter and how I did not see it before I took the picture is beyond me. I have fixed it though, but of course did not think to retake the picture.

This Tulip Bouquet stamp is one I picked up last weekend from a nice lady selling some of her stamps to make room... for more I am guessing. I wanted to see how many different cards I can make with it until I wanted to move on to something else. This is the first in three so far.

This stamp has so much detail I wanted it to be the focal point on this card with out to many extras.

Supplies: Cream and green cardstock, Rubber stampede – Tulip Bouquet, Inkadinkado – Thank you, Dress it up – Heirloom Collection button, Celebrate It-holiday ribbon

This was a quick put together card, 1 I needed a Thank you card on the spot and second I was excited to try this embossing powder I got from a friend. The embossing powder is a green and bluw mixed with a light color mixed in.

I have to say though, this picture is one of the worst that I have taken in a very long time. I think it is time I starting pulling out the light tent again, and be nice to my camera.

Supplies: Cream and light green cardstock, Designer Paper - Memory Skor, Close to my Heart - Thank you, Rubber Stampede - unknown color, Sheer Creations ribbon.

Happy Saturday

I really like this cupcake stamp, I went searching through my scrap bin to find the designer paper so I don't recall the maker/designer.

Supplies: Cream and peach cardstock, Designer paper – K&C Company, Sarah Beise-Cupcake, Paper Inspirations – Happy Birthday, Sheer Creations ribbon, Stickles

This card is for a teenage boy, let’s hope he is suitably impressed.

I used multiple layers to build up this card. I stamped the image onto watercolor paper with black versafine ink. I used my Cuttlebug Swiss dots Embossing folder to get the texture so that there did not look like a lot of empty space. I stamped the Happy Birthday with Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Pigment Ink.




Supples: Black and red cardstock, Inkadinkado – Rock Star, Stampin’ Up! – Birthday wishes, Black & White Jazzy Brads.

Humm.. yup it is me - the absent blogger. Today is my Anniversary, I was spoiled. My honey brought me a new toy. I am such a geek, I have been drooling over this little baby for months now.

I apparently am not the best of wives, I followed the rules and only gave a card. Mind you I made it, I can lie and say I slaved over it for hrs but... who would I be kidding.

I have been so lazy with setting up the light tent lately, if I can find a patch of sun then I am fine with snapping a picture. It does make the colors pretty bright though. This card is burgundy not the almost hot pink that it appears. Maybe it is because it is a shimmer card stock.. I chose the burgundy and cream because those are colors we used for our wedding.

Supplies: Cream and burgundy cardstock, All night Media - Happy Anniversary, cream misc ribbon, black gems, bugundy Stamp'in Up! embossing powder.

I used a Cuttlebug Spots and Dots embossing folder for the top half, then used a EK Success - Slim Profile Paper Edger Punche for the bottom.
