Thank You

 Hello Peeps!

Today's card share is one I made using the challenge at Just Add Ink. 

A pretty color challenge{

You need to use at least three of the 5 colors, I used Pretty in Pink, Cloud Cover and Crumb Cake.

Here is my card:

I used one of my favorite stamp out now from Stampin Up called Flowers Fair. I colored the flowers with Pretty in Pink and Cloud Cover and the stems and leaves are Crumb Cake.

The Base of the card is Cloud Cover and I used a bit of DSP from the Lovely Blossoms Pack.

My main image is matted with Crumb Cake cardstock and I used the retired Fancy edges die to add the bottom trim,

The sentiment comes from the Lovely Arrangements stamp set.

I used some Cloud Cover ribbon that I cut in half to make a bow. The bees are also a retired element.

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Stampin!!

Happy Birthday

 Hello Peeps!!

Today's card is a fun Birthday card using the challenge at Seize the Birthday. The challenge was to make a Spring Garden. 

My card:

It is a fun easy fun fold, I choose Night of Navy to make my base along with some Balmy Blue and the DSP is True Blue Floral and was the product of the month in January.

I love blue so this was a must get for me.

The flower die cuts are all from the Sweet Bugs Dies, the sentiment come from the Lily of the Valley stamp set and is die cut with a die in the Sweet Words & Labels dies.

This is the inside of the card. 

That is all for now, Thanks for stopping ny and Happy Stampin'

Congratulations

 Hello Peeps!!

Today's share is a card I made using the sketch at CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge. 

Clean & Simple is not my forte but I wanted to give it a try. 

My card:

I flipped the card to be a portrait card to be able to fit my elephants.

I stamped and colored the Mama Elephant and her two babies from the Stampin Up Safari Smiles stamp set. I used the matching dies to cut them out. I colored using my light Smoky Slate Blend along with a bit of Pretty in Pink Blend for the inside of ears and a rosy cheek. The sweet litle birdie is colored with some Daffodil Delight Blend.

Don't you just love those sweet elephants.

I stamped the sentiment, from the same set, across the bottom, which smeared a bit so don't look too close. 😉

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin!!

Hello Friend

 Hey Peeps!!!

I am back with another post today!

I have a card to share that I made using the sketch challenge at Sunday Stamps.

The challenge closes today so I had to sneak in another post! 😆

My card:

I am using another new set and a new in color.

The set I used is the Lily of the Valley stamp set and dies.

I really like this Bundle, it will be available May 5th.

The new in color is Hydrangea Hue, it is my favorite of the new InColors. 

I used a base of Thick Basic White.

The white panel was embossed with the Lazy Daisy EF.

Next is the is the crosshatch piece, a die in the Lily of the Valley dies, I used an adhesive sheet on the back of a piece of the Hydrangea Hue before die cutting.

The circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.

I stamped four of the lily images and colored with Hydrangea Hue and Granny Apple Green Blends.

I added them to the circle with dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Lovely Arrangements stamp set, and it is on a die cute from the Sweet Words and Labels die set, It will be available on May 5th.

I added some tiny butterflies from the InColor Butterflies and a small bow made from the Hydrangea Ribbon.

I added a stamp of the Lilies to the inside:

Well, that is it, for today, I promise....LOL!! 😸

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stampin.

A Round of Hellos

 Good Morning Peeps!!

Hope your day is going well!

Today I am sharing a card I made using the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.

When seeing the sketch I immediately thought of the Stampin Up set called A Round of Hellos.

This set is designed to work with the 2" and 2-3/8" punches. It is a really cute set.

My card:

I used a couple of the New upcoming In Colors, Crisp Cantaloupe and Peaceful Pine.

The DSP is also from a new pack called Bloom Boutique and will be available to order on May 5th.

The base is the Crisp Cantaloupe, and do you see the gold? So pretty, I love when you can add a bit of glam to a card.

 I used some new embellishments, they are in the new In Colors too, and are called  2026-2028 In Color Butterflies, and they will also be available to order May 5th.

My sentiment is from the Round of Hellos stamp set and it is a bit crooked, but I went with it anyway, hey it is handmade and certainly not perfect. LOL!!

It is hard to see in the picture but the two Peaceful Pine circles are embossed with the new Lazy Daisy EF. I love that folder!

Well, that is all for today, Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin!!

Hello Friend

 Hello peeps!!

I thought I might try my hand at blogging again, we will see how it goes!!

Today I am sharing a card I made using the color challenge this week at The Paper Players. 

• And here is my card:

I used the Stampin Up Simply Beautiful stamp set.

I love that big flower. I colored using Lemon Lolly and Daffodil Delight Blends.

The sentiment comes from the retired set Friendly Hello. 

I also used the new Product of the month, Eyelet Blooms die which is available for 5.00 dollars with a 75.00-dollar purchase. 

My card base is Smoky Slate 8-1.2" x 5-1/2" scored at 4-1/4"

Then came the pretty Daffodil Delight cardstock cut with the Eyelet Bloom die. then came my image panel that I matted with Basic Black. 

I used the new White Gel Pen to add some dots to the center of the flower.

I freehanded a wonky border around the inage panel using my Journaling Pen.

I finished up with some Lemon Lolly gems (retired)

Well, that is all for today. 

I hope to post at least 3 times a week. 

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin!!!

So Thankful for all you do

 Hello and Happy Monday Peeps!!!

Tomorrow is the big day, the day the new mini goes live...what is on your wish list?

Today's card share is made with a beautiful Bundle from the annual catalog called Season's Blessings and the Seasonal Basket Dies.

It is a gorgeous set and these flowers are not just for Christmas.

I used fall colors to make my card.

 

 

I used Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Bumble Bee, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight for the flowers and the leaves are stamped with Pear Pizzazz.

 

The basket is die cut with Early Espresso and I lined it with a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock.

 

My base is Crumb Cake card stock and then I used a piece of Whisper White that I embossed with the Tasteful Textiles EF I backed that embossed piece with a layer of Cajun Craze card stock.

The basket is added to the card with dimensionals and then the leaves and flowers were added.
