Club Spring Sampler

Card two from last weekend!! This was a fun one using the new Spring Sampler set!

The card base is Marina Mist with a Daffodil Delight accent layer behind the Whisper White background. The "happy easter" is from Delightful Dozen and was stamped in Marina Mist in the bottom right corner of the Whisper White. Above that is the new 3/8" Striped Organdy Ribbon in Marina Mist. The squares of color were punched with the Scallop Square from the Sunshine & Sprinkles DSP. The colors are Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight, Melon Mambo and Old Olive. The 4 images were stamped on Whisper White in the same 4 colors and punched with the 1-1/4" Scallop Circle Punch. The circles were attached to the squares, then the squares attached to the background with a dimensional.

More Amore Valentine

Card three from Club last weekend! Had to work in one Valentine as I won't see them in February until after Valentines Day!

Card base is Real Red with a background of Real Red Core'dinations Card Stock. We embossed it with the new Honeycomb folder and sanded over to reveal the lighter core center. Great distressed look isn't it?? Over that we added a layer of Very Vanilla with a small heart print from the More Amore DSP pack. Around that was knotted a Pool Party ribbon. Hearts cut with the Hearts a Flutter Framelit set are layered over. The large scallop stripe was attached with dimensionals to set over the ribbon. The saying is from Delightful Dozen and was stamped in Real Red on Very Vanilla and punched with the Scallop Oval punch and attached with dimensionals to the background. A small heart punched from the DSP was attached over the heart in the image.

Sketch Frenzy Friday 012712

Happy Friday all! Hope you have a great weekend on tap!! For us, there is nothing major on the agenda and I hope to spend plenty of time in the stamp room just for fun!!

As you know, Friday means another Sketch Frenzy Friday and mini tour. Here is my creation of the week

based on this sketch by Angela Walters.

And, I must say, when I first pulled this up today I wasn't excited about it!! LOL!! But, I love what I came up with and now think it's a GREAT sketch!!

I had the stamp and hearts of a different color still on my stamp table from the weekend. I decided hearts from the new embosslit would work for the circles. Card base is Soft Suede with an Early Espresso accent layer behind the Riding Hood Red background. I started by stamping the saying bottom right in Early Espresso. Then, I ran the Riding Hood Red through the Big Shot with the new Hearts folder from the Adorning Accents set. Then, I cut several sets of hearts with the Fashionable Hearts Embosslit. One from Early Espresso, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Riding Hood Red & two from Naturals Ivory. I added hearts and shifted them around until I liked the look. Done-clean and simple!!

Be My Valentine!

Card two from Club last weekend. When I was stumped for ideas, I was looking through different cards on the Internet. I came across this one (the first one in her post) by my friend Deb Currier and inspiration struck!! Thanks Deb!! I don't generally like to straight up copy, I prefer to tweak them somehow to make it more mine. Here is what I came up with.

Same basic layout. My card base is Basic Gray with Melon Mambo and Rich Razzleberry accent layers behind the Whisper White background. Across the center of the white I embossed the hearts from the Adorning Accents Folders set. At the bottom we stamped "Be My Valentine" from the Delightful Dozen set in Basic Gray. I cut two sets of hearts with the new Fashionable Hearts Embosslit, one in Melon Mambo and one in Rich Razzleberry. We used one of each heart in a mix of the two colors. One heart fits perfectly over the heart on the stamp, the others were attached with glue dots above.

Sketch Frenzy Friday 070811

Happy Friday all!! Friday brings us another Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge and mini tour!! I've had a good stamping day and I'm excited to share this week's creation! Mr. Brown brought me a whole box of goodies from the new catalog and I dove right in!! New color, new stamps, new ribbon, new accessory! Here is my card:

based on this great sketch brought to us by Tammy Fite. Thanks Tammy-this was my kind of sketch!!

My card base is the new In Color, Calypso Coral. The background is the DSP Patterns word print in the same color. The vase stamp is from the new Button Buddies set. Love that set!! Since we don't have In Color flower buttons, and the brads were too big (covered the flower), I used clear Bitty Buttons with a coordinating punch of Calypso behind it. In the center of the flowers, new Silver Mini Brads. With nice, long backs that are perfect for putting through buttons!! I inked the image with markers: Basic Gray for the vase, Lucky Limeade for the stems, and Calypso Coral for the flowers even though they are covered. The new 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon in Calypso Coral is knotted around the bottom with the saying just underneath on the left side. It is from the new set, Delightful Dozen and was stamped in Basic Gray.
