Life and Love


I'm still loving this set! I did use some retired paper (Kiwi Kiss and Parisian Breeze) but you can swap out those for what ever you have in stock. The flower is stamped in So Saffron classic ink on So Saffron textured card stock and I used a round firestone brad in the center. The other ink is Ballet Blue which I stamped off once and Mellow Moss on Kiwi Kiss paper. Thanks for stopping by, Have a blessed day,

Friends


This card was inspired by the PPA20 challenge. This week we were encouraged to use the color combo of Crushed Curry, Soft Suede and Old Olive. Not a combo I would automatically go to but it worked for this card. The stamp set is new from the upcoming Occasions Mini and it's called Vintage Vogue. The Occasions Mini will be available on January 4th, so if you like this card and would love to own your own set of Vintage Vogue stamps just click the catalog on the side bar and it'll bring you to my on-line store.
Thanks for stopping by,
Have a Blessed day,

Window Sheets Card


I made this card a while ago and forgot to post it. Sympathy cards are good to have on hand, you never know when you'll need one.
Blessings,

Bermuda Bay Christmas


Here's a card using the new shimmer paint, Frosted White. The shimmer paint was sprayed on using a little rubbing alcohol mixed with the paint in a bottle. Very easy to do and the results are pretty, though it is hard to see in the photo. You must take my word for it. The paper is textured Bermuda Bay and textured Brocade Blue. Inks used are Taken with Teal and Night of Navy. The stamps are Serene Snowflakes and the words are from Christ is Born.

Thanksgiving Easel Card




I found this easel card at SplitCoast and thought I'd try it. We made it last month at my Make-N-Take and it was a huge hit. I love the simple gold embossing and how elegant the card looks. I mailed one out today to my sister in South Carolina and I hope she likes it. Sending cards at Thanksgiving is something I'm trying to do more of because I want people to know how thankful I am for being in my life.
Have a blessed day!

Latte Love in Fall!


This is one of the cards we made Monday night at my Make-N-Take. I used the sketch from this weeks MoJo 109 challenge.
The Font of You stamp set is so easy to use and one that I haven't used too much lately. The mug is stamped in Pumpkin Pie then using a Blender Pen we took off the "steam" and the "latte" after that we just filled them in with the Soft Suede marker. To create the "table" you use a post-it note to mask off the top of the card stock and dip a sponge in Chocolate Chip ink and there you go! The card stock used is Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry textured.
Thanks for stopping by, Have a blessed day!
