Feeling Sentimental

Hi Stampin' Friends The Feeling Sentimental Clear Mount Stamp Set is one of my favorite sets from the Sale-a-bration Catalog.   I love the vintage look of this set.   I cased this from a card I found on Pinterest but I can't remember whose it was and it didn't have a watermark on it.  I changed a couple of items to make it my own, i.e., different embossing folder, etc. The… Read More »

Elegant Butterfly

Hi Stampin’ Friends I saw this technique on Pinterest (love that Pinterest!)  I’ll have a video showing how to do the double embossing sometime next week because  I have a head cold and you don’t want to hear my voice right now (LOL). The Very Vanilla Card Stock was embossed using the Perfect Polka Dots and the Designer Frames Embossing Folders.  That was layered onto Floral District Designer Series Paper.… Read More »

Happy Birthday David

Hi Stampin' Friends It seems that for the first couple of months each year, I'm making birthday cards almost every day!  Today's card is for my hubby David. I wanted to make a card that showed moonlight sailing.  I tried using the Sail Away stamp but I couldn't get it to come out right and you don't want to see my mistakes!  So I decided to do a search in… Read More »

Happy Birthday BJ

Hi Stampin' Friends Today's card is for my nephew Bobby John.  His birthday is the 1st week in March but since I'll be on a cruise, I thought I'd make it early and get it in the mail before I leave. I cased this card from Nancy Riley and I love it for its simpicity.  All the squares are retired designer series paper but it is still available on the… Read More »

The Open Sea – Masculine Monday

Hi Stampin' Friends Hope you had a wonderful weekend.  My husband is off skiing so I'm enjoying a couple of days by myself! This card is for my son-in-law Gary who lives out in California.  He has a beautiful view of the ocean from his house so I thought using the Open Sea Stamp Brush Set on his card would be perfect! The image was printed on Very Vanilla Card… Read More »

Beautiful Birthday

Hi Stampin' Friends This is the perfect card for an old friend from work.  I haven't seen her in several years but we do keep in touch through birthday cards and Christmas cards. I'm not sure what the technique is called but I brayered Crumb Cake Classic Ink directly on the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder and then embossed it on Very Vanilla Card Stock.   The rose is part of… Read More »

She’s All That

Hi Stampin' Friends I love to play with My Digital Studio.  Today's card is using the She's All That Stamp Brush Set. I printed out the image on Tea for Two Designer Series Paper and then use our new Ovals Collection Framelits Dies from the Spring Catalog to die cut it.  It was layered onto So Saffron Card Stock which was embossed with the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder and then… Read More »

Beautiful Birthday and blog candy winner

Hi Stampin' Friends Today's cards features the single stamp called Beautiful Birthday.  Sometimes all you need is a sweet and simple birthday stamp–and this is it! Use it to make cards in advance–so you're always ready with handmade birthday greetings for those you love. I used the Mojo Monday sketch for this card and it was so much easier using a premade sketch than to try and figure out what looks… Read More »

Autumn Field Flowers

Hi Stampin' Friends I saw a beautiful card on Lee Conroy's blog using the Field Flowers Stamp Set in the colors More Mustard and Cajun Craze.  I made my own version of the flowers and I love the way they came out.  It would be the perfect birthday card for someone whose birthday falls during the months of September, October or November.  Create your own field of beautiful, calming flowers on… Read More »
