Thank You

 

Happy Tuesday Peeps!!!

Today's card share is made using the challenge at  

The Paper Players:

My floral image comes from the beautiful 

Flowering Foils Specialty Paper that is a free SAB item.

I fussy cut out the image and colored with my Aqua Painter and ink pads.

I used Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay and some Basic Gray.

I made my fun Background using some 

watercolor paper and my Coastal Cabana

ink pad. 

I used an acrylic block smashed into my ink pad and then applied to the 

the wet watercolor paper. I did this over and over until I achieved the look I wanted. 

I then splattered water drops over the dried paper and dabbed off and finally

I flicked Bermuda Bay ink over the paper.

I then embossed with the Subtle EF going through with the paper laid horizontal and then vertical in the Embossing Folder.

I also used the Subtle EF on the flower image as well. 

I love the look this Embossing folder gives, like a canvas almost.

My sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set.

I finished up with a few rhinestones and a small twine bow.

Tulip Happy Birthday

 

Happy Monday Peeps!!!

Today's card share is one I made last week when I was getting back in the groove.

I do like how it came out. 

I love the new Timeless Tulips stamp set with it's matching punch.

I used a couple of challenges while making this card, first for the colors I used he challenge at the Paper Players, but it ran out before I could post.

 I also used the Fusion Card Challenge:

I choose to just use the sketch.

My DSP on here is the Golden Honey Specialty paper from the

 SAB catalog.

 

I stamped my tulips using Poppy Parade and Rich Razzleberry. 

The leaves and stems are stamped with Old Olive

I used he Coastal Weave Embossing Folder on here as well. I am

obsessing over this pretty Embossing Folder, it is so pretty!

My sentiment is Peaceful Moments stamp set and the die cut it is

embossed with white on is from the Painted Labels Dies.

 

I finished the card out with a double bow made with the new Whisper White Crinkle Seam Binding Ribbon and a few little rhinestones from the From My Heart Faceted Gems.

My finished inside:

Hello Peeps!!!

So sorry for the long silence here on the ol' blog.

I have had a hard time getting back to my craft table after the holidays.

 I could give you a million and one reasons but in the end I guess I just needed the break.

Anyway I pulled out this amazing set from the Occasions catalog called Forever Blossoms.

It is so pretty, don't you think?

I also am using the sketch at  

Freshly Made Sketches:

I began by stamping the image onto thick Whisper White card stock with Black Stazon ink.

I colored with my Aqua Painter and ink pads.

I used Poppy Parade and Old Olive inks.

 I used the matching dies to cut it out.

 

A couple of other new iems on this card are the Coastal Weave Embossing Folder.

I love it!

I hand cut the partial circle and then embossed. I matted that piece with some Basic Black card stock.

The sentiment on here is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set.

I samped with Versamark onto Basic Black and embossed with White Embossing Powder.

I cu out the strip and used the Tailored Tag punch to flag the end.

The floral cut out piece is added to the card with dimensionals 

and the sentiment strip is tucked under the stem of the flower.

I went back in with my white gel pen and highlighted the centers of the flowers a bit.

 

I added a few basic rhinestones and some white twine wrapped around my sentiment strip and added a small bow as well.

isted below are all the "ingredients" used to make this project.
