A Wedding Card With Countryside Inn

 


I have a wedding shower to go to in a few weeks and the theme is blue and we even need to wear blue so I made a lovely blue wedding card. I have a Night of Navy base and the a layer of Countryside Inn DSP and then a piece of Boho Blue card stock layered with a piece of Night Of Navy that I heat embossed in white embossing powder. I grabbed the long retired stamp set called This Day Forward which happens to be my only wedding like set. I stamped the image and the sentiment in VersaMark ink and used my heat tool. I stamped a few butterflies from the set on the envelope in Boho Blue ink and inside i stamped Congratulations and more butterflies in same ink. 
Hope you have a beautiful day and thanks for stopping by!

Class Of 2024 Grad Cards

 




My son needed 5 grad cards for friends graduating this coming weekend from UCF (University of Central Florida) so I cranked out these cute cards using Basic Black as the base and a layer of Wild Wheat card stock which works good for a gold shade. I then cut a white panel to stamp the sentiments on with Memento Tuxedo Black ink with the Cap & Gown stamp set from the spring mini catty. I then cut the gold foil numbers with the Large Numbers dies which are retired to pop on the front. I stamped the inside on white with Wild Wheat ink as well as black. Quick and easy cards! 
Hope you have a fab week!

PP686 A Peachy Birthday

 



I am playing along with Jaydee's clean and simple spring flowers challenge this week over at thepaperplayers.blogspot.com  I am using the two new in colors called Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock. I used a Peach Pie base and another piece ran through with the Cane Weave embossing folder. I stamped the flowers and leaves from the Cheerful Daisies set in Early Espresso, Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock inks and cut them with the matching dies. I also cut more greenery with the Shy Shamrock card stock. I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso on a strip of white card stock and added the Shy Shamrock dot to finish it off. 
Hope you have a special day and thanks for stopping by!

A Mother's Day Hummingbird

 


My step mother loves birds and so I made this card for her for mother's day coming up May 12th. I stamped the bird from the Thoughtful Expressions set in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with my Stampin Blends markers in Calypso Coral, Petal Pink and Wild Wheat. I then stamped the sentiment from the Stippled Roses set in Calypso Coral ink on a white circle and then added a stitched Wild Wheat circle behind. I layered from the white base a few pieces of Simply Stippled DSP prints plus some Wild Wheat card stock. I did ran a Wild Wheat ribbon around before attaching. I finished off with some Calypso Coral gems. 
Hope your Monday is lovely and thanks for stopping by!

Daisies Are Pretty In Pink

 


It was nice to pull out my Cheerful Daisies bundle for the this lovely Pretty In Pink in color. It goes so well with the flowers! I used a piece of the cards tock to run through my Cane Weave embossing folder and add to a white base. I then cut a square white stitched die and a white stitched rectangle die. I stamped the sentiment in Early Espresso ink on the rectangle and popped my flowers/leaves on the square. I stamped the flowers and leaves on white card stock in Early Espresso, Pretty In Pink, Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green inks. I cut them and some leaves in Granny Apple Green card stock with the Cheerful Daisies dies.  I finished with some Pretty In Pink dots. I also cased this card a little from the great Amy K at stampwithamyk.com 
Hope you have a beautiful weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy Summer Splash Today

 


The new in color Summer Splash is a light version of Coastal Cabana but it is so pretty! I have it here as a base and then I used my water color painter to added it to the piece of water color paper. I then cut two palm trees and some grass in white card stock with the Beach Day dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Beach Day set in Summer Splash ink on white card stock and hand snipped it out. I finished it off with a few Summer Splash dots. 
Hope you enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by!

Thinking Of You With Shy Shamrock

 


I really love the color of the new Shy Shamrock. It is a very pretty green. I have ran a piece of Shy Shamrock card stock through with my Fern embossing folder and added to a white base. I then cut a white panel to stamp foliage from the Botanical Layers set in Shy Shamrock, Lemon Lime Twist and Shaded Spruce inks. I then added a strip of Lemon Lime Twist cards tock and wrapped the same color ribbon around with a bow. I stamped the sentiment from the same set on the bottom in Shy Shamrock ink. I finished with a few dots in Shy Shamrock. 
Hope you have a pretty awesome day and thanks for stopping by!
