Today’s card features the Blended Bloom and Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Sets. The Blended Bloom is perfect for coloring with the blendabilities. I’ve included a Stampin’ Up! video on some simple tricks to using our blendabilities. Because the card doesn’t lay flat, I added a band that slips off and on really easy. The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set. It was punched out using the Modern… Read More »

What is your favorite card to make? I also noticed that Stampin’ Up! is going away from the vintage look and… Read More »

The ribbon is the Very Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon which was dipped in a solution of Crisp Cantaloupe Reinker and water. While… Read More »

Roses are my favorite flowers especially the old fashion kind. This one is a Sweetbriar Rose and originated in Europe where they make tea from it (Rose Hips Tea). Though the real Sweetbriar Rose is pink I decide to color this one in our gorgeous new blue called Lost Lagoon (2014-2016 In-Color). I love the names that Stampin’ Up! selects for their colors! If you would like to place an… Read More »
