The Oval to cut the Very Vanilla Card Stock was the retired Ovals die – still have it and still plan to use it. The skates were stamped on Very Vanilla Card Stock with Early Espresso Ink and colored in using a blender pen and Soft Suede Classic… Read More »

Blooming with Kindness

Hi Stampin' Friends I'm feel so much better – thanks for your prayers and good wishes.  What a difference a day makes! For today's card, I wanted to make one that was shabby chic but not too frilly so I add a ribbon that you could scrunch up or add roses or anything that like.  I wanted the simple shabby chic look if there is such a thing. I used the Blooming with… Read More »

Snow Festival

Hi Stampin' Friends Well I hope you had a better weekend than I did!  It was miserable for me but I know that I'll be better in the next couple of days.  I have the most fantastic doctor in the world and he always slips me in on short notice.  I seem to get bronchitis often and so quickly – it never starts out as a head cold or something like… Read More »

Full of Blessings

Hi Stampin' Friends! I did early voting to avoid lines!  Did you vote? Or will you vote today?  Your vote does count! As I was making today's card, my husband was playing the guitar and singing Perhaps Love by John Denver in his room.  That was our wedding song and the part I love the best was "If I live forever and all my dreams come true, my memories of… Read More »

Nostalgic Winter Memories

Hi Stampin' Friends Today's card features the beautiful and nostalgic Winter Memories Stamp Set (Clear Mount).  I love, love this set and I'll be using it a couple of times this week. I wanted to keep it simple and decided to color in the two birds only.  Oh, and I added a little spritz on the upper left and lower right using the Color Spritzer Tool to give it that… 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 »

Bordering on Romance

Hi Stampin' Friends Hope you had a wonderful weekend and if you have colorful foliage in your area, you were able to enjoy them. Thanks to all of you who took advantage of the new items from the clearance rack and placed an order.  Too bad so many things are already sold out!  I missed out on the magnetic sheets, confetti cream card stock and the envelopes!  But I did manage… Read More »

A Little Shabby Chic

Hi Stampin' Friends Don't know why but I seem to be drawn to shabby chic type of cards lately and they are all white or very vanilla! I used four different types of fabric on this card, burlap, lace, woven rayon and sheer fabric.  I guess it can't get any shabby chic than that! HTML Tables Thanks for stopping by today SUPPLIES:
