Watercolor Wings

Today’s card features the Watercolor Wings Photopolymer Stamp Set.  This is such a beautiful set! I stamped the butterfly with Pool Party Classic Ink onto Whisper White Card Stock and die cut with the Bold Butterfly Framelits.  I also die cut a piece of  Silver Foil Sheet using the Basic Butterflies Thinlits and layered them together. The greeting is from the Birthday Blossoms Clear Mount Stamp Set.  It was inked… Read More »

Wetlands

Time for a masculine card.  I used the Wetlands Stamp Set because I wanted a clean and simple design. Even though the stamp set was made for watercoloring, I decided to go with a monochromatic look.  Love the way the branches look embossed on the background.  I also used the masking technique so that the foliage did not show through the goose. f you need any supplies, visit my Stampin’… Read More »

Happy Birthday Tom

Today’s card features a non Stampin’ Up! image.  My nephew Tom loves to surf and he lives in the right part of the country (Southern California) to be able to do it most of the time. I must be blind or old (LOL) because I didn’t realize the surfer was holding an ironing board until I started coloring in the image!   I used the retired My Digital Studio to print… Read More »
