You've Been on My Mind

 

Happy Monday Peeps!!

Over at Just Us Girls  Challenge 

it is photo week.

Highland Heather is such a pretty color and was my choice for this card.

I used the image from the All That You Are stamp set. 

I stamped with black stazon and 

colored with my aqua painter and ink pads.

 I used Heather Highland and Wild Wasabi with a bi of Daffodil Delight.

 

 

I fussy cut the floral image out, selectively eliminating a few pieces, and sit it aside.

My base is Highland Heather, as is the embossed panel. I used the Basket weave EF .

I die cut a piece of DSP from the Wood Grains pack to use for my flower base piece.

I used a die from the Wonderful Floral  Framelits. 

It is a bit obscured by the flower image.

 I added some twine first and then the flower piece.

My sentiment comes from the Butterfly Gala set.

I used my Wink of Stella pen on the flowers, 

I love the shimmer it gives but it never shows on camera.

I finished up with a few sticky sequins.

Thanks for taking a look.

Happy Valentine's Day

 

Happy Saturday Peeps!! 

Over at Just Us Girls Challenge Blog it is word week and the word is Love.

I made another Valentine card, I used my other Valentine Card seen here 

as the inspiration for this card.

I started with a white card base of thick whisper white.

I then used a layer of Lovely Lipstick card stock and then another piece of white that I embossed with the corrugated EF.

 

I die cut several pieces using the Be Mine Stitched Framelits. I used Flirty Flamingo and Lovely Lipstick card stock and the DSP is from the All My Love pack.

I laid down by DSP at an angle and added the scallop border pieces to the edges.

I glued this directly to the corrugated embossed piece. 

I then added the hearts that are going across the top of the DSP strip.

I then began layer up my die cuts with dimesionals until I achieved an arrangement I liked. 

I stamped the sentiment using Lovely Lipstick and die cut with a stitched circle die.

 

I added a few little rhinestones to finish it up.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Happy Sunday Peeps!!

Sorry for the late post, I had this scheduled to go live this morning and for some

reason it failed to do so, could be operator error or maybe just blogger being fussy!! 

Over at Addicted to CAS, the code word is Friends

and at Just us Girls Challenge  they are looking for Pastels

This card would had been one layer but I dropped my water brush while coloring and go a blob of color on the top of card. 

So I ended up cutting it down and adding a layer.

 

I am using the Lovely Lattice stamp set from Sale-A-Bration.

It IS lovely for sure!

I colored using my water brush and  Flirty Flamingo ink.

I didn't get the depth I wanted with just the single color this time and ended up going back in with some Lovely Lipstick to darken a bit

The leaves are colored with Pear Pizzazz ink.

I used a bit of Pool Party to color the background a little.

 

The sentiment comes from a set from last year's Sale-A-Bration called Happy Wishes.

I finished with just a few rhinestones in the flower centers.

Thanks for stopping by!
