I’m using this set for the day 2 challenge from our Team Leader, Brian King. I did a lot of masking with this card to create a one layer card front. And I wanted to keep it real soft so I used the subtle colors. Card… Read More »

Art Gallery in Highland Heather

Inspired by impasto paintings, the floral images in the Fine Art Suite can be used to create a variety of different cards. Add one of the sentiments and you’ve taken your card-making skills to a whole new level. For today’s post, I used the Art Gallery Bundle for my card. I couldn’t decide on a sentiment so I left that part blank. I can add it later. I was inspired… Read More »

Positive Thoughts

Today’s post features the Positive Thoughts Stamp Set. I’ve used this set before (once) and didn’t realize the coordinating dies included a gorgeous frame die! No wonder my husband says I have too many toys, ha, ha. The flower was stamped with Rich Razzleberry Ink on Whisper White Cardstock. It was then die cut with the coordinating die. The leaves were stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink. I did the… Read More »

The flowers and leaves from the Floral Essence Stamp Set were colored in using… Read More »

Saying Goodbye to Pressed Petals DSP

Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper will be retiring on 2 June 2020 (or if it sells out before then) and will no longer be available. I think that it is one of the most beautiful designer series paper in the 2019/2020 catalog year. For today’s card, I’m combing it with another retired stamp set called Climbing Roses (used greeting for my card). I saw this card on Pinterest (I think)… Read More »
