Curtain Call Color Challenge Act 2








I am loving the new Curtain Call Color Challenge at Stacey's Stamping Stage! I must give her a "Great Big Congratulations" for her accomplishments. Rising Star #13 at Convention this past week. How exciting! This beautiful towel set reminded me of the Fresh Cuts stamp set and thought it would look great on the Fresh Cuts Note Cards. Add a Button from Button Latte with a little bit of crochet thread and the Bravo Burgundy as a background and this makes for an easy thank you card.
Thanks for stopping by :-)

Curtain Call Color Challenge Act 1








Stacey's Stamping Stage unveiled a new look and a new Color Challenge and I just had to participate! Love the colors and the bedding so I thought I would recreate my own version.
I started with a Whisper White base then using the Sizzlets Little Leaves Die I cut out Not Quite Navy and Night of Navy leaves. I put the Not Quite Navy leaves down first using Tombo Multi-Mono adhesive then I put the Night of Navy just off center of the Not Quite Navy Leaves.
Thanks for stopping by :-)

Autumn Days


Hello Everyone,

Bet you thought I fell off the face of the Earth, not quite but it felt like it! I'm so ready for fall so I can slow down (who am I kidding) LOL! This is a card I did for my Stamp Club. I wanted to show them embossing and how to tie a ribbon. Ribbon takes practice but once you get it you're good! I also wanted to let them try our new "In Colors" they are fabulous as always. They also got a chance to try the new Modern Label Punch. The wheat was stamped in Versamark and applied White Embossing Powder set with heat tool.
Thank you to everyone who leaves lovely comments :-)

Thoughts & Prayers with the "New In Colors"




Our monthly downline meeting was this week and this is the card I made for the swap. My upline is Julie Davison and you can get some inspiration from her blog at Julie's Stamping Spot!
I am in love with the Rich Razzleberry and just had to use it :-) The butterfly is from the Great Friend Stamp set and I use it a lot! I first stamped the image in Versamark and then into Crushed Curry onto Whisper White cardstock. Added Iridescent Ice embossing powder and then heat set to give it some bling. Yes, and did you notice I colored the flowers with the New In Color MARKERS? That's right, SU made In Color Markers this year, doin' a happy dance ;-D
The In color ribbon is reversible, no polka dots on the other side, too cool.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.

Butterfly Bookmark






Hello Everyone,
I was at Barnes & Nobles one evening checking out the books that were on sale when I came upon this cool bookmark. They wanted $5.00 for this bookmark so, I slipped it out of it's holder to see what was so expensive. It was just paper and magnets! I thought, "Gee, I could make my own!" So I did. I started out with Baja Breeze cut at 2.5 inches x 8 inches and scored at 4 inches. The Parisian Breeze is cut at 2.25 inches x 3.75 inches I cut two one for front and back. I only stamped on the front. To give the butterfly a little dimension I decided to emboss with clear embossing powder. First I inked the butterfly stamp with Versamark and then into Chocolate Chip, applied Clear EP and heat set. Used the Round Tab punch for the top and used sticky strip to apply for added strength. The magnets I found at Hobby Lobby.
Thanks for stopping by and all the nice comments :-)
