Hello

The base is Pool Party with a matching Designer Paper to the Free as a Bird stamp set. The bird and branch is attached with Dimensionals. A strip of ribbon was added for accent. The top mat was embossed with the leaves embossing folder.

Until next time have a blessed day!

Retirement

On to Adventure is the stamp set that is featured on this card. The base is Blueberry and the images are on Very Vanilla. The set has two gals and two guys and is really great for retirement or moving on in a new job or just moving.

I used a makeup brush to add the blue for the sky. Look how smooth it is. Sequins were added for accent and the sentiment was stamped with Garden Green.

Until next time have a blessed day!

The Spirit of Love

I know its a bit early for Christmas but could not resist. The set is from Stampin Up 2000 - The Spirit of Love. I stamped it in gold and there is a beautiful verse on the inside. I used the Rainbow die to cut the top and bottom of the image.

I stamped the envelope with a tree from the Cuckoo Clock dies and the image is mounted on gold paper. Lovely!

Trucks Galore

Two things - the little packing box that is exactly like a Stampin Up Box is so cute for small gifts. The truck is a 3D Framelit. I think I am doing something wrong 'cause I can't get the tail gate to do right but my grandkids love 'em.

The first one (Lovely Lilac - retired) was just for practice. The Delightful Daffodil truck was done correctly and stamped BUT I still am having issues with the tail gate. Will try one more time. Thanks for stopping by.

Another Country Home

This set is so versatile and really country! The base is Garden Green with a green gingham mat.
I used SU Blends for coloring the milk can and arrangement!

The milk can and arrangement are fussy cut and adhered with Dimensionals. I used a frosted doily for accent. The sentiment was punched with the Washi tape punch.

Bird Ballad

This card was made using the envelope and cardstock base from the Bird Ballad. It is so nice and could also be done as a Rustic Retreat card. I used the Free as a Bird stamp set and the matching dies for the focal point on the card.

It also comes with envelope (already cut) inserts to match up with your card. I also put a white insert inside to write your message.

Bird Ballad

Don't you just love the Stampin Up Card Kits. Besides getting lots of cards you get everything to make them. This card is from the Bird Ballad Kit. It contains the new laser cut cards with matching scalloped envelopes.

I lined the laser cut side with a piece of the new Magnolia Designer Paper and fussy-cut the magnolia on the front. Its adhered with Dimensionals. I used a retired laser label for the sentiment.  I'll be making lots more of these.

Another Rustic Retreat

Cherry Cobbler stamped with the Buffalo Check background stamp is the base for this card. The leaves were cut from gold paper from Floral Framelits.

The images are all from the Rustic Retreat. I made a fluffy bow using brown baker's twine for accent. I think it makes a nice Christmas Card especially masculine.

The card base is Early Espresso embossed with the leaf embossing folder. Then I lightly ran the gold ink pad over the raised portions. The Crumb Cake mat is embossed with the wooden embossing folder. I stamped the envelope to match the card.

Block Card

Blocking different colors or papers is a great way to use scraps and still make an attractive card.

I used some small gingham scraps to color block this card. I used the same arrangement to punch out the leaves then punched out 2 more in Whisper White. The base is Whisper white and the made is Daffodil Delight embossed with the leaves embossing folder.

Petal Labels

New Wonders - Hostess Set

This was from the Hostess Set - New Wonders. I am not real happy with it. I plan on doing the next one a bit better. The Blends have no colors yet for a pretty flesh so I will try colored pencils next. It is such a cute set.

The base is Granny Apple Green and the mat's oval was cut with the new Petal Labels.

Rustic Retreat

The new Stampin Up set, Rustic Retreat is really neat. It has a deer, bear, cabin and a lot more. This card is Soft Suede with a Crumb Cake mat. The ovals are cut with the Stitched Scallops.

Linen thread is wrapped around the distressed mat. The leaves and sign are stamps included. I put a bear on the envelope to make it special. I love this set.

A bit early...

I found this background in a stack of old cardstock and decided it was too pretty to pass up.

The stamp is really old background stamp. I cut the Merry from a die and then stamped the word Christmas. It is mounted on a Real Red card base with a Garden Green mat.

Envelope Packaging

Believe it or not, this packaging is an ordinary SU envelope! Your first one is always just for ‘practice’. Next one I make I’m going to stamp it; scallop the top; decorate it heavily! I’m not very good at decorating or embellishing stuff; but I do try.

Also try and picture the ‘treat’ a donut or cookies or bagel! I used 4” coasters just to see what it would look like. Hope you like the idea!

Stamp A Stack

Here's one of the cards I chose for the June Stamp A Stack. The flower is from Humming Along colored with Blends. I used the die from Wild About You for the Whisper White mat and adhered with Dimensionals.

The card base is Balmy Blue! Great card for many occasions just by changing the sentiment. Enjoy!
