warmest wishes

I hope that you had a great weekend, I know that we did. The weather was beautiful this weekend here in California. We spent most of our time outside enjoying it. This is a card that I did at a recent super stampers. I really love this blooming with kindness stamp set and its been getting it's use a lot lately. To achieve the  box of color that the flower is stamped on I inked a acrylic block with our summer starfruit ink and then stamped it directly onto the whisper white card stock. It's a simple and great technique and can be used with any size clear block.   

Supplies:

Paper: Midnight Muse, Summer Starfruit, Whisper White CS

Ink: Summer Starfruit and Midnight Muse

Stamp Set: Blooming with Kindness

Accessories: Lacy Brocade EF, Adoring Accents Framelits, D clear acrylic block, Midnight Muse Stitched Ribbon

Thank You, Chan

Happy Sunday! I wanted to share with you this adorable thank you gift I received last month from a fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator Chan. I was pleasantly surprised to find this on my porch, I love crafty surprises like this. Isn't that candy jar so cute?! I also love that she coordinated the card with the yummy goodness.

Thank you again Chan that was so sweet of you!

Oh, HELLO

Happy Saturday! This will be a quick post today. I have lots to do and have a family filled day ahead of me. Here is another card that I made this for a stamp day with my demo friends. I was trying to go with clean and simple. I have to say lately my neutral go to color lately has been Sahara Sand while I like the color I never seemed to use it that much. I think it paired nicely with this color combination. What do you think? What's your go to color? Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Happy Birthday AVA!!

I'm a bit late in posting this. I made this card last month for my niece AVA's birthday. She

turned 6, boy does the time fly by quick. The theme of her party was ART so I wanted to be sure to stick with that. I found inspiration for this card from Erica Cerwin at Pink Buckaroo. I took some of her elements that Id seen on a scrapbook page and a card that she had made and went from there. I really liked how it turned out.

I know I've been MIA for sometime now. I've been really busy lately so my blog has been neglected not to mention blogger has been giving me a hard time when trying to upload my pictures. Here is a card that I made for a spring catalog stamp day with some of my demo friends. I'm really loving this DSP and the laser cut hearts that come with it, it also has that added bonus of coordinating with our hearts a flutter stamp set
that is currently featured in the spring catalog. I'm hoping that I will be able to get back to posting more so be sure to check back. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great Valentine's Day!!
