Goodbye Tiger Blooms and Romantic Journey Prints

Today’s card features the retiring Tiger Blooms ATS Stamp Set and the retiring Romantic Journey Prints. Even though tiger lilies are usually orange and some times even yellow or pint, I decided to color my flower with Candy Apple #3 Pencil from the Journey Color Splash Watercolor Pencils.  The leaves were colored in using Green Olive from the same pencil set. The vintage background is from the retiring Romantic Journey… Read More »

Good Bye Love Paris

Every time I use the Love Paris Stamp Set, the song “I love Paris) comes into my head.  It is one of my favorite sets and it’s retiring! (see details below) I cased this from a card I saw on Pinterest.  I say cased but I did change a couple of things to make it my own.  The River Stone Card Stock was embossed with the Love Letter Embossing Folder… Read More »

They still haven’t released the retirement list, so the contest is still ongoing!  Click here for all the details on guessing how many stamps are retiring.

Peach Blossom

Today’s card features the Peach Blossom Stamp Set from the annual catalog.

The greeting is from the Everyday Script Bundle and was stamped with Black Licorice and… Read More »

Designer Series Stencil

For today’s card, I decided to remake a card I made a couple of weeks ago because I wasn’t too happy with the colors.  To see card, click here This is cased from the Bloom This Way Mini Trends Catalog (page 49).  Love the way this one came out. I also used the reverse side of the Green Olive Satin Ribbon so that it wasn’t as shiny. So which one… Read More »

Everyday Script

Today’s card features a technique I saw on Deb Valder’s video on youtube.   It’s like the card featured on page 41 of the Bloom This Way Trends Mini Catalog. I used the Everyday Script Stamp Set and the Designer Series Stencil from the mini catalog. I also had a chance to use the Rainbow Dots that I ordered during the 12 days of Christmas. Download the supply list:  Everyday Script… Read More »

Tiger Bloom

Today’s card features the Tiger Bloom ATS Stamp Set. I’m working on a video on how to make this card so I will include instructions in the Tiger Bloom Supply List Printout. The front of the card includes the cut out with the vellum colored in.  The inside of the card has the same floral image but only in black and white.  What was difficult was lining up the images… Read More »

Everyday Script

Today’s card features the Everyday Script Stamp Set Bundle from the Bloom This Way Mini Catalog. I love, love the Spring Filled Prints from this same catalog and I used it as the background for today’s card. Rather than repeat myself, going forward, I will include the card instructions in the download with the supply list.  I’ve also included the card measurements so you don’t have to guess about the… Read More »

Today’s card was made in response to a The Inking Way (FSJ team challenge under Becky Roberts) challenge to use the colors Whip Cream, Oatmeal Cookie, Bubble Gum and Black Licorice colors. I used the Dear Rose Stamp Set for this challenge.  Did you know that Dear Rose is available in a bundle?  It has a coordinating die and when you buy the bundle, you save 10%. The rose was… Read More »
