These are beautiful! Found these on the Stampin’ Up! Blog. Enjoy! I love all things shabby and vintage, and although this passion doesn’t surface much in my papercrafting projects, it’s always fun to play. A little while ago I visited an absolutely fabulous salvage yard where I found loads of rusted metal filing cabinets, signage, and almost anything else you could think of. My mind was spinning! How could I… Read More »

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 »
Today’s post uses the Choose Happiness Stamp Set and the Notable Ornament Stamp Brush Set. When I first started stamping and making cards, I made vintage, shabby chic type of cards and then somehow I got away from it. Don’t know why since it’s my favorite type of card! What is your favorite card to make? I also noticed that Stampin’ Up! is going away from the vintage look and… Read More »

For today’s post, I’m combining the modern, edgy, grunge Chalk Talk Stamp Set with the Shabby Chic Look. Love the combination of Crisp Cantaloupe with Soft Suede! And I love, love our new Venetian Crochet Trim! The flower is a Non-SU item but everything else is Stampin’ Up!. The ribbon is the Very Vanilla Seam Binding Ribbon which was dipped in a solution of Crisp Cantaloupe Reinker and water. While… Read More »
We get caught up in the excitement of the new catalog and new stamp sets that we neglect some our favorites that carried over. I am so glad that the Stipple Blossoms Stamp Set carried over so we are able to enjoy it and create beautiful cards for another year. Which favorite stamp set carried over for you? Roses are my favorite flowers, as I mentioned a couple of days… 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 »
This card is a little late – Stephanie and David’s anniversary was on 2 June 2014! But better late than never – right? I used the Everything Eleanor Clear Mount Stamp Set – love this set – it’s so elegant and classy! I stamped the images with Versamark, then heat embossed them using the Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder and our Heat Tool. I then used the brayer and and… Read More »
