Butterfly Basics - I miss you!!



I personally am in LOVE with this stamp set - Butterfly Basics, and so are all my stampin’ friends.  That’s what makes me so sad.  Soooo many of my friends missed out on this stamp set and now have to wait until it comes back in stock with Stampin’ Up!.  The good news is I hear it will be very SOON!!!!

The color combination on this card is something I am really loving right now as well – Pink Piroquette, Old Olive and Melon Mambo.  I have always been a big fan of the Hardwood background stamp and I use it whenever I can!  I used Stampin' Write markers and Blender Pen to add some dimension to the flowers.  I like the weathered look of how the ribbon is laying on the bottom of the card as well.   If you want to check out what Stampin' Up! is all about, click HERE

I surely hope you get to stamp today!!

    World of Dreams Watercolored

    The more I look at this card the more I really like it.  This card was featured at a recent Technique class I offered.  It has such a WOW effect but is so very simple to create.  Have you ever stamped with your Clear blocks?  It is a great way to add a different effect to your cards.  On this card we colored with Stampin' Write Makers onto the clear block and then spritzed the block with water before "stamping" the block to the paper.  It is best if you use your paper piercing mat as a nice firm surface prior to stamping with the block.  Give this easy technique a try today and send me a pic, I'd love to see your creations.  Happy Stampin'!!!!!

    Lotus Blossom Sympathy



    We made this card at a recent All Occasion card buffet.  I really like the "triple" stamping involved with creating the lotus blossom image. This great stamp set paired with a favorite color of mine, Blackberry Bliss and you can't go wrong.  There is only one more day left to get this stamp set during Sale A Bration.  Click here to SHOP and get yours today!  I hope you get to stamp today.

    We made this card at a recent card buffet.  I am lovin' Lost Lagoon more every day.  I really like it paired with Crumb Cake.  I used the stamp set Kinda Eclectic and some linen thread.  I also made this as a sympathy card using the Thoughts and Prayers stamp set, it also turned out great.  This is a simple look but it makes a great statement, don't ya think?
