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 »
Hi Stampin' Friends The Apothecary Stamp Set is one of my favorite sets. I paired it with the Hello Doily Background stamp set and Fan Fair Designer Series Paper for a shabby chic look. The Apothecary Art stamp set makes a tasteful statement with floral-inspired labels in classic designs. 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 »
Hi Stampin' Friends Before I go into today's card, I wanted to show you a picture of the two Rachel's. It's not often that I take a picture with my granddaughter Rachel and it's because I am usually the picture taker! We matched today! Rachel had a pink shirt on and I had pink crop pants on! The goofy smile (love it!!!) on Rachel is because she recently lost her two… Read More »

Reminiscent of Victorian apothecary labels, this exquisitely designed eight-piece set is a must-have for those who covet that… Read More »

Usually I can made a card in about an hour (from design to finish) but I keep changing things around on this one. I used the Tea Shoppe Clear Mount Stamp Set for this card. Whatever your tea preference, this delightful, vintage-inspired… Read More »

Hi Stampin' Friends Hope you had a wonderful weekend. We finished off the weekend with dinner with the kids. Since it's the first time I made potato salad this year, it was my kick off to the summer. I mean it's not summer until I make potato salad and chili no matter how hot it is! (LOL) Today's card features the beautiful Hello Doily Stamp. Better than the real thing, this… Read More »

Use these exquisitely detailed images to bring vintage elegance… Read More »
