Saturday Sketch

Here is a sketch to get you started stamping this weekend. Have a great one!

Sweet Pea Stitched Felt A Thought Away

I love this Sweet Pea Stitched Felt! It is so fun, quick, and easy to use! I threw this adorable card together using the Sweet Pea Stitched Felt, Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pack, Whimsical Words sale-a-bration stamp set, Scallop Trim Border sale-a-bration punch, and the Stampin' Up! Two Tags Die! The color combo is from the Designer Paper and is So Saffron, Rose Red, Old Olive, and Chocolate Chip on Whisper White!

Whimsical Words Follow Your Heart

Ah, the whimsical instruction of following one's heart! Boy has that gotten me into trouble a few times! LOL! However, most of the time my heart doesn't steer me wrong! This delightful card is sure to encourage someone down the path of making the right decision. It's a simple monochromatic color scheme of Bermuda Bay.  I used the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Stack, Bermuda Bay Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon, Pinking Hearts Border Punch, Whimsical Words, Small Heart and Full Heart punches, and the Movers and Shapers die.

Sweet Pea Stitched Felt Happiness Always

This was a fun card! The color combo is Mellow Moss, Pretty in Pink, and Chocolate Chip on Very Vanilla. At the time I was day dreaming about Spring and how happy those first warmer, sunny days after Winter make me feel! I used Twill Tape, Sweet Pea Stitched Felt, Mellow Moss 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, the Stampin' Up! Scallop Square Die, the Stampin' Up! Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder, and the Whimsical Words sale-a-bration stamp set. By the way, are you wondering where the scalloped square is at? I just ran my scalloped square through the die again, lining up the scallops to the size I wanted my piece of card stock to be and cut it into a scalloped rectangle!

Welcome Neighbor Congratulations

What an easy card to welcome someone to the neighborhood and congratulate them on their new home! I layered a piece of paper from the Welcome Neighbor Designer Series Paper Pad (a FREE Sale-a-bration item) on to Crushed Curry card stock, accented with a Crushed Curry Polka Dot ribbon and bow, and used the Congratulations from Well Scripted stamped in Pumpkin Pie...so easy a caveman can do it! LOL!

Good Neighbors Happy Retirement

Something about the trees and clouds in the Good Neighbors sale-a-bration set made me think of retirement and fun times outside like fishing, biking the trails, etc.! The color combo is Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Kraft, and Bashful Blue. I used the Word Window and Modern Label punches, Top Note Die, Welcome Neighbor Designer Series Paper from sale-a-bration and Pumpkin Pie 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon.

Saturday Sketch

Here is a sketch I created for you in My Digital Studio. I hope it inspires you to create this weekend! Have a great one!

Follow Your Heart Home

Two different Texturz plates used on the background give this card lots of texture. I used Crushed Curry for a bright, sunny sky and Old Olive edged with the Scalloped Trim Border Punch for the grass. The house and pretty landscaped yard pop out from a Bermuda Bay Background. Since there was a heart on the door I decided to make it Melon Mambo and make the roof and sentiment match. I put a touch of Melon Mambo Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon to help the accent color of Melon Mambo pop. The stamp set is another sale-a-bration set called Good Neighbor.

Happy Moments In Bella Bleu

I love this Bella Bleu Designer Series Paper and it was the perfect backdrop for this caged bird from the Happy Moments sale-a-bration set! The color combo is Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, and Brocade Blue. I used our new Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon, a Chocolate Chip Button from the Button Latte Designer Buttons, and the Scallop Trim Border Punch.

Thank You For Happy Moments

This card looks so much better than the photo! Someday I am going to learn how to take a good photo! The color combo is Basic Gray, Old Olive, and So Saffron. I used the new Happy Moments set from sale-a-bration. I textured the Basic Gray background with a Stampin' Up! Backgrounds 1 Texturz plate and used a corner rounder on my Old Olive layer. The So Saffron layer is paper from the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pack and the Old Olive ribbon is our new Satin Ribbon.

Saturday Sketch

Here is a sketch I created in My Digital Studio to get you started stamping this weekend. Have a great one!

Retro Vintage Label

I used the Vintage Label sale-a-bration stamp set to make this retro-looking birthday card. I love the color combo of Pumpkin Pie and Dusty Durango...it so reminds me of the 70's! Other accessories used were Sweet Pea Designer Series Papers, Dusty Durango Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon, Curly Label Punch, Curly Label Movers and Shapers die, and a Sherbet Designer Button in Pumpkin Pie.

Happy Moments = Gifts!

I love how certain elements can pull a card all together! I used the circles on the top gift as the element to focus on. I used the Stampin' Up! Backgrounds 1 Texturz Plate with dots on the Soft Suede background. Then I layered a length of Soft Suede polka dot grosgrain ribbon over that. I framed the focal point on a piece of Crushed Curry layered on a piece of Rich Razzleberry die cut twice with the Top Note die. I placed a Chocolate Chip Sending Love Epoxy Brad in the corner of the focal point anchoring it with my chosen element. The 2nd layer of the gifts is paper pieced with piece of Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper. The other gifts are colored with our wonderful markers in Rich Razzleberry, Crushed Curry, and Soft Suede. The gifts are from the sale-a-bration stamp set Happy Moments.

Vintage Label Razzleberry Lemonade

This card carries bright and cheerful best wishes! I used the Vintage Label sale-a-bration stamp set, Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper, Scallop Circle Punch, and the 1" Circle Punch. Quick, easy, and fun!
