Shabby Chic goes Bright!

Hi Stampin' Friends For today's card, I used Papaya Collage, Apothecary Art and French Foliage Stamp Sets.  Usually I think of soft muted colors when I think of Shabby Chic, but I decided to go outside the box and make the card shabby chic but use bright bold colors. What do you think?  Do you like it? I love the French Foliage stamp set and will be using it more… Read More »

Happy Birthday Kenny!

The perennially stylish six-piece set coordinates with our Labels Collection Framelits and the Attic Boutique product suite. Fill a jar with treats,… Read More »

Extreme Elements

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 »
