This stamp set is called Country Morning and it's a Hostess Level 1 Stamp Set. I decided to use the Bella Rose Designer Series Paper even though it's retired because the checkered pattern in that pack looks so country. The main image and the sentiment are both stamped on Naturals Ivory using the Brown Stazon Ink. I colored in the rooster using Ruby Red, Old Olive, Creamy Caramel, More Mustard,… Read More »

I cannot believe I am making this card for my granddaughter, Sydney, so far in advance. Her birthday isn't until 13 September.

I decide to use Parisian Breeze DSP which retired last month… Read More »

This stamp set is one of my favorites because you know I love floral stamp sets! The designer series paper is Raspberry Tart which retired last month (boohoo). I decided to use watercolor paper with this card. I stamped the image with Black Stazon, then colored in the flowers with Regal Rose and Rose Red Stampin' Write Markers. The leaves were colored in using a blender pen and Kiwi Kiss… Read More »
This has got to be one of the cutest stamp sets from Stampin' Up! in a long time! I love this stamp set and my preference is usually the flowery ones.

I used a blender pen and the Mambo Mellon Classic Ink Pad because I wanted a lighter touch on the flowers and the markers was too dark. I stamped the flower images on Whisper White card stock with Black Stazon. I then colored… Read More »
