Pretty Perennials Simple Birthday

Hey all, happy Tuesday! Again supposed to be "warm" in Nebraska. That is relative after the super lows of last week, but I'll take it :) #melting

Time in the stamp room again last night. Gave my table the complete once over - yeah! So clean!! Creativity must follow :) I've been negligent with sharing the SU! "simple stamping" challenges. But this card fits the month! February is Stamps, Ink, Paper and Happy Birthday. #simplestamping. Here is my submission.

The colors, Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green and Mango Melody came from an old challenge over at Stamping Pals. Knew it would be GREAT with the flower set, Pretty Perennials. And wow, it is!! Card base of Melon Mambo, accent layers of both Mango Melody and Granny Apple Green. Background of Basic White. On that Basic White I stamped a large flower in Melon Mambo, medium flower in Mango, leave accents in Granny Apple Green, small flower and small dotted flower in Melon, crazy flower in Mango. The saying is on a separate strip of Basic White with a few Mango flower accents, layered on a Melon Mambo strip. #easypeasy Love love love how this came out :)

Daisy Lane Colors

Hey all, Happy Wednesday! More shares from me :) Are you joining me in trying to #keepstamping? I was on a roll Monday afternoon, we'll see what the rest of the week brings!!

Here are a couple cards I colored for the next challenge from Stampin' Up! I love the Smile and Friend stamps in the Daisy Lane set, so this time I decided to use the flowers too! The challenge this week is Night Of Navy, Pear Pizzazz and Pumpkin Pie. I struggled briefly with this, as Pumpkin Pie to me says Fall. But then I decided flowers come in all sorts of colors! Two different versions, read the details below.



This one is true to challenge with the colors. I used the regular Stampin' Write markers to color the flower and stem images that were stamped with StazOn ink. Pear on the stem, Navy flower centers and Pumpkin petals. I tried to go lightly and leave some white space. I also took the fine line and went over a few areas for accent. Card base is Very Vanilla, accent layer of Pumpkin Pie and background of Thick Very Vanilla. Sweet and simple! #simplestamping


For this one, I reached for Stampin' Blends. We do not have Pear Pizzazz so I switched to Old Olive for my green. The flowers here are stamped with Memento ink. I generally go over most all the area with the light color first, then accent with the darker and finally blend over where they meet with the light again. These flowers pop to me compared to the other. I did the center with the light Navy and only added a bit of dark before blending again. Flower petals all light, then the outside with dark and blend. Coloring is generally not my thing, but sometimes it just works :) Same cardstock here as above.

Thanks for stopping by today! One more post for sure this week so stay tuned! Let me know if you have any questions or I can help with anything!! Product details and shopping links below.

Birthday Butterflies!

Happy Monday all! I have a #simplestamping card for you today! How long has it been since you made a card with just stamps, ink and paper? Quite awhile for me I'm sure! But look how pretty...


Love Love Love!! Of course purple is my thing, and this new color Gorgeous Grape is awesome!! 

The layout was inspired by a sketch I saw last week at Sketch Frenzy Friday. I missed playing along, but here it is so you can see my starting point!

Card base is Gorgeous Grape with a Basic Black accent layer behind a Whisper White background. On that background I stamped the larger set of circles from Beauty Abounds in Smoky Slate (off once). *My Smoky Slate is either darker than it should be, or over inked!! The Happy Birthday is from Beautiful Day set and was stamped near the center, left side in Tuxedo Black Memento. The two butterflies and parts are from the Butterfly Gala set. The solid image is two parts both stamped in Gorgeous Grape.
