Hi Stampin' Friends I'm so glad that Extreme Elements is available in digital format because it retired this year and I like to use it for grandsons who are teenagers. They are so hard to make cards for. The digital image was printed out on Very Vanilla Card Stock using My Digital Studio. The "splash" is More Mustard (opticity was reduced to 50%) and the sentiment and stars are Island… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends My husband and I took Stephanie, Felicia and David out to lunch because they all received such good grades. Stephanie made the Dean's List at college, Felicia and David each made 5 A's and the rest B's. I am so proud of my daughter and grandkids! Today's card uses one of my favorite stamp sets called Blooming with Kindness. This stunning six-piece stamp set gives you plenty… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends I am having so much fun playing with my new toys. I think that the From My Heart Stamp Set will become one of my favorites and "go to" stamp sets. Reminiscent of Victorian apothecary labels, this exquisitely designed eight-piece set is a must-have for those who covet that vintage look. Clever sentiments and intricate designs combine to make this a stamp set you'll want to use… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Today's card features the digital Timless stamp Brush Set. The sophisticated six piece set will make you think of yesteryear. Works beautifully with vintage, retro, or masculine projects. Nostalgiac images include a bicycle, telephone, and vintage car. I am beginning to love this color combination for a masculine card. It's Gumball Green and Midnight Muse – our 2012/2014 In-Colors! Using My Digital Studio, I printed out the vintage car… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Today's post is a quick one because I'm getting ready for tomorrow's New Catalog Party. I did want to show you one of the cards the attendees will be making. Can you see the embossing on the bottom of the card? It's a new embossing folders called Delicate Designs and it's gorgeous!l The stamp set is called Everything Eleanor and it's (I think) one of the most… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Ooooh My Gosh! I am so sorry, I forgot to announce the winner of the $25.00 gift certificate! I used Random.org to determine the winner and the winner is (drum roll, please……..) Sanwanya Moser. Sanwanya, please let me know what you would like from the new catalog and I'll place the order for you! It's time for a manly card! Today's post features the nostalgic Countryside Clear… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends! Another beautiful day in the neighborhood! Love, love this weather. Hope you are having nice weather where you live. I made this card for my daughter and son-in-law. Yes, his name is David (same as my husband). They even have the same initials (DB)! This is more my style than Stephanie's style. She likes clean and simple, I like shabby chic. But I think she will like this… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends It's another beautiful weekend in our part of the woods. I love it! Though I did hear from one of my downline (Hi Valerie!) that she received some snowflakes today so it's not spring everywhere and certainly not in the north part of the US. I'm using the two step Simply Soft Stamp Set one last time before it retires on Thursday, 31 May 2012. I'm also using… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends Today's card showcases one of the new dies in the 2012/2013 Catalog called Bigz Clear Oval Accent Die. It coordinates with the new Forever with You Stamp Set (page 132 of the new catalog). Like the framelits dies, it's clear so you can see where you are placing the die on the card stock. For the background, I used the Everyday Enchante DSP from the Sale-a-bration Catalog with Poppy… Read More »
Hi Stampin' Friends It's a beautiful weekend in Northwest Arkansas. I hope you are having pleasant weather. It's been such a nice spring this year. Well, I finally finished the petite purse – not that it was that hard to make but I had to redo it a couple of times because I kept making dumb mistakes. The ladies will be making the purse at Jane's private class on Monday… Read More »
