PP329 Thanks Dragonflies!




The dragonflies make me smile!
I took the sketch from 
thepaperplayers.blogspot.com
and flipped it and decided it need dragonflies!
I used the Serene Scenery DSP for my background.
Why create a background when you have beautiful paper?
I cut the dragonflies out in Sahara Sand.
I stamped the water colored wings from the 
Dragonfly Dreams set on Very Vanilla with 
Soft Sky ink. I cut them with the die and layered a detailed on top.
 I stamped a sentiment from the same set in 
Archival Basic Black and used a Sahara Sand base and was done
all in just a few mins!
I hope you can play along this week!

Have a lovely Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!

High Tide Lighthouse


I played with the High Tide set again for my fourth card for 
card class this week.
I stamped the first stamp of the lighthouse
in Crumb Cake and then stamped the second in Cherry Cobbler.
I like the natural look of the Cherry, Crumb and Black.  There are 
three other sentiments in the set which gives them more options.
A little thick Very Vanilla Baker's twine finishes it off.

I hope you have a blessed Sunday!

Hello Love Valentine's Day Card


I struggled hard with this third card for my card class this week.
I wanted it not to be too busy yet there are 
so many elements in the new set and matching dies.
But after a few tears, I did make it come together.

I just had to use the sweet little envelope die and I love 
the slotted heart and arrow. 
The falling Petals emboss folder was calling to me, too.
I also like the placement of the sentiment.
Happy Valentine's Day sentiment and Sealed With A Kiss
both will fit there if the guest chooses.
Real Red and Pool Party are one of my fav color combos.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks
for stopping by!

FMS272 Thoughts of You!




When I saw the sketch, the first thing I thought of was the branch 
from the Best Birds set.
I stamped the branch in Soft Suede
 but water colored it in Sahara Sand and Cucumber Crush.
I stamped the background "scratches" in Rose Red as well
as the sentiment and the flowers.
I also used it to do the water color on the bird along with So Saffron.
The card front was attached to a piece of 
Soft Suede floral DSP and then a piece 
of Thick Whisper White for the base.
I hope you can play along with the sketch this week

Dragonfly For A Wonderful Friend


This is my second card for my upcoming card class.
I did a little rock n roll with the dragonfly wings stamp.
I stamped the wings in Pear Pizzazz and then rocked the 
edges in Bermuda Bay.
I took a Bermuda Bay to fill in it need on the wings 
plus to color the body in, too.
I cut the square with the Stitched Shapes dies
 and stamped the background stamp from 
Dragonfly Dreams. The two of the sentiments are from that set
 stamped right onto the black.

The layout I cased from Carolyn King 
over at kingsonpaddington.blogspot.com

GDP071 Sending Love Envelope Punch Board Versatile Box




When I saw the challenge, I thought of the 
Envelope Punch Board Versatile Box
designed by the wonderful Sam Donald
over at pootles.co.uk.
I decided to go with a Valentine's theme but inside I saw 
where a Yankee Candle votive would fit!




I used a 6" x 6" piece of DSP called 
Sending Love which is a lovely paper stack full of designs 
in Real Red and Whisper White.
I did all the scoring with the Envelope Punch Board.
After just a few cuts, I have a cute little box.
Can hold candy and as I showed the a votive!
I love the slotted heart die in the 
Love Notes framelits dies but I decided
leave the slots in for a textured look.
I added a white heart then a stamped heart 
from the matching set
Sealed With Love. 
I cut the two hearts with the Sweet & Sassy framelits dies.
Closed, I added a bit of Whisper White thin ribbon.
So fast and easy to make these sweet boxes!

I blended with the aqua painter.

I stamped a few times the sand and then stamped the water with Island Indigo.
I stamped all the birds in Basic Gray.
The lighthouse in Crumb Cake and then Island Indigo.

More Love Notes!



A couple of Valentine cards for you today!
The top is a note card in Crumb Cake.
I stamped a heart from Sealed With Love all over the 
white background in Blushing Bride.
I then used the Sweet & Sassy framelits dies for a frame.
A quick gold clip pulls it together and looks like it was just clipped 
just for you!

The second card is also the same Sealed With Love set.
I used the Love Note die on the side...these hearts are truly cool!
I added some Sending Love DSP on the inside to show though.
Love these little hearts!
I then embossed the front with the Falling Petals emboss folder.
Some Stitched Shapes and Layering Circle framelits dies finish it off!

So easy...the base is a Best Badge punch!
The slotted heart and arrow is from Love Notes framelits dies.
I stamped the sentiment from Sealed With Love
in White Craft ink.  It did not come out as dark as I would like.
But it does look "chalky"!

75th Birthday Card


One of my customers asked me to make a card
 for her mother in law's 75th birthday.
She wanted the numbers on the front. 
I asked what her fav color was
 and my customer said white.  
I then said I needed another color.
She said I know she likes blue, too.
Well then I knew what designer paper to use.
I love the Floral Boutique DSP but I tend to hoard it.
I used some it on the bottom here and then I cut 
a piece of Night of Navy with the Detailed Floral thinlits 
for the top.  I stamped the numbers from Number of Years 
stamp set and cut them with the 
Large Number framelits dies.
Added a doily behind for more white!
It still need a little more so I added
 the Night of Navy seam binding ribbon.

Love Note Card


I used another note card and still
playing with the framelits and matching set.
I stamped the Love Note sentiment on Whisper White
then I did the little die and slid it in the Pool Party mini envelope
also cut  along with the string of hearts with the Love Notes dies. 
I layered that on a scallop circle from my layering circles framdelits dies.

Sent With Love!



Playing with my note cards and Love Notes Framelits dies!
I like to test how easy it is and how much time it takes on some of the elements 
before I use them for class. 
Like it is best to stamp the hearts and then use the die cut after.
The stamps are from the matching set Sealed With Love. 
The dies have a cute mini envelope die and some arrows.

FMS270 Love Those Hearts!




Helllllo, a little Valentine/Love theme today!
I started with the paper called Sending Love DSP.  
I chose a couple of prints and placed on the Whisper White base.
I then remembered my heart(I love hearts) from the
Sunshine Wishes thinlits dies.  I cut two and layered them and then used 
a sentiment from Bloomin' Love for the side!

Very quick and easy.  
Needed a little bling so added a couple of rhinestones!
Card is headed already to my mom.

but I made it too large for the card I was designing.
So I just added it to a base with a quick banner

GDP069 Sealed With A Kiss!






The free choice was fun!  I liked seeing what others put with these colors!
I showed the challenge to my daughter before I started.
She had a very strong opinion that I should use Pink Pirouette
as the other color!
At first, I thought no!  But when laid the colors together
I thought they would work.
I had been wanting to do the lace background since I received my
free SAB stamp set called Delicate Details.
 You can get it for free too with a $50.00 order now thru March 31st, 2017.
I alternated the three colors and eyeballed the spacing.
Not perfect but I was happy with it.
I was going to pull a new white doily when my hand landed on
a package of 2015-2017 in color doilies
and I pulled out the Delightful Dijon.  It was the right size, too!
The heart is from a retired punch and a little off set pearl finished the job!

Thanks For The Smiles!


This is a real quick and simple card today!
I stamped this dragonfly for another card which I then changed colors.
I stamped the dragonfly image in Memento Tuxedo Black.
I then did the second step of the wings in two colors.
I inked in Bermuda Bay and then "rocked" the sides in Pacific Point.
I then colored the white spots on the body with a Bermuda Bay marker.
I cut it with a matching die cut.
I stamped the background design and the sentiment
 from Dragonfly Dreams on the card front.  Then popped up the 
dragonfly with a dimensional.
Hope you have a fabulous Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!

I decided to do more sponge brayer with the Inside The Lines DSP,

Lots of fun possibilities.  It is good to have some

I took a sponge dauber and went around the edges of the paper with 
Rich Razzleberry ink.

To A Wonderful Friend...


Sooooo simple!  I cut the dragonfly in 
Copper foil and popped him on a piece of 
designer paper from the Serene Scenery DSP paper stack.
I love the light effect on the designer paper and all 
it needed was a simple sentiment I stamped in Versamark
 and sprinkled with copper emboss powder to heat emboss.
I mounted it on a base of Old Olive.

I stamped the first one in Elegant Eggplant and then stamped again

The base is a piece of Thick Whisper White card stock.
I stamped a lace border from another SAB set you can

Happy New Year With Hugs & Kisses!

Happy New Year to you & yours!
I hope 2017 will bring many blessings!


I designed a giant card...well a 5.5" squared one!
I had the Fancy Frost DSP piece there and decided to 
finish up the Watermelon Wonder in my Stampin' Spritzer
from another project this week by spraying it on the DSP.
Makes for easy coloring!
I had not touched my Butterfly dies in a while
 and the large one was perfect for this size card.
However, I sat and stared a long time at my colors
trying to decided what color to cut my butterfly.
I found decided Black would give it a great impact.
I cut a small butterfly in Vellum and 
sponged Peekaboo Peach on the back side.
I added a Watermelon Wonder doily behind.
I grabbed my new set Sealed With Love from the 
new Occasions catalog which starts this week
on Jan. 4th, 2017 for the sentiment banner.

I hope you enjoy for first day of the new year!
