Simple Flower

Today's card is using the Simple Flower Sizzix Embosslits and Sizzlits Little Leaves. I am using Cameo Coral with Raspberry Tart Designer Series Paper. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would. Cameo Coral is not a favorite of mine (I've used it perhaps twice since it first came out) but it was one of the colors in Raspberry Tart. This Embosslits (Simple Flower) is turning… Read More »

I took it out this morning and thought that a silhouette would be perfect for it. If I had the SU stamp set Silhouettes (retired), I would have used it but alias I… Read More »

Upsy Daisy

Today's card is for kwernerdesignblog challenge which is to use the colors Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango, White and So Saffron. The technique I used to color the image is called rock n roll. I first stamped in So Saffron and then rolled the stamp (edges) over the Tangerine Tango. The ribbon is a gift from Sam (one of my blogging buddies). Thanks Sam!
