Have you heard the saying “Dog Days of Summer”? That usually happens in August around here but it’s that hot now! Oh well, it’s a good excuse to stay indoors and work on my beloved cards!
Since I had the Modern Medley DSP out, I decided to use it again today but give it a shabby chic look. Check out the Masculine card I made yesterday with the same DSP.
I love the 2013-2015 In-Color Coastal Cabana especially with paired with Baked Brown Sugar or Very Vanilla Card Stock. It reminds me of the theme that is really popular right now with the distressed shabby chic, beachy look. The name escapes me.
The sentiment is from the Happy Day Clear Mount Stamp Set and was stamped with Coastal Cabana Classic Ink on Naturals Ivory card Stock (base card). The Coastal Cabana Card Stock was die cut using the Paper Doily Sizzlits L. The strips of paper are from the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper and the button is from the Sale-a-bration Catalog. I’m glad I didn’t get rid of the buttons because they match the Coastal Cabana and Calypso Coral colors.

I remember people saying “peachy keen” in the early 50’s! I guess I’m really dating myself (LOL). Wonderfully retro, the Peachy Keen Stamp Set coordinates with the On Film Framelits Dies and the Retro Fresh Suite. I’m so glad we finally have a flower die to make 3D flowers with. So easy to make – run…
When you’ve been making cards as long as I have, you learn to make a quick card in about 10 minutes. Since the card was for an older gentleman (in his 80’s) who was recovering from a fall (broke his hip), I thought that I would make him a simple yet vintage card. I…

Today’s card features the gorgeous Hand-Penned Petals Bundle. The stamp set features beautifully drawn floral images and coordinating fill stamps that give the design an effortless watercolored look I did something a little different with this card – did a zig-zag stitch to anchor both pieces of the DSP together. Sewing on cards was very…
