GDP073 Love You More




When I saw this color combo, all I could think of was flowers. 
I grabbed this stamp set for the fruit but ended up 
stamping the flowers. I stamped the outline in Memento 
Tuxedo Black. I stamped the little flowers and
then snipped them out to layer on top of the big ones. 
 I used some Moroccan DSP in Emerald Envy.
The bright colors make it fun!

Have a blessed day!

More Lift Me Up Balloons!


After my classes this week,
I had a few cards cut that were not made in class. 
I decided to put them together but change a bit the stamping.
I used the sentiment since I knew I was 
sending this one to my mom. 
I send her a card each week and she is highly spoiled!
I added some in color enamel shapes-stars in Peekaboo Peach.

I hope you have a fab Monday!
Thanks for stopping by!

Paper Pumpkin Valentine's Day Treat Bags Fun!

 My daughter, Amanda, and I did the January Paper Pumpkin
kit this weekend.  Very cute Valentine's Day treat bags!
It made 24 bags and we filled them with four Dove
dark chocolate hearts. 





I really like the colors and the touches of gold!
Glad this kit came and had plenty of bags for my Sunday School girls. 
Mostly, I loved the time with my girl!

Hope you have a lovely Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

FMS273 Bee Kind



I still had my Dragonfly stamp set sitting out on my desk
when I went to design for this challenge.
I thought the dots in three colors would make for an interesting
background for this sketch.
I have not used the bee as of yet, so I stamped him in black and then
the next over in Crushed Curry.
I hand snipped him out.
I looked for a while at all my stamps for a sentiment I wanted
to place here but when I saw the confetti reference in
this sentiment from Jar Of Love,
I thought it the dots really do look like confetti
and decided to give it a go!

have a wonderful weekend!

Smiles For My Guest Designer!


Well, I love this card....I did not make it but 
my wonderful and talented daughter did!
She wanted to design a card for my blog so she is my 
guest designer today!
She would not let me see until she was all done!
I love the layout and the mix of DSP. 
But my fav is the sentiment cut out on a heart!
It works so well!

Hope you have lovely weekend
 and thanks for stopping by!

GDP072 Thoughts & Prayers



Fun to case the designer esp. when they are so
awesome like Krista!
I started with DSP that already had dots/circles
 on it but Ilike that the colors are different.
I also had a left over stitched square from classes this week so
I grabbed it and stamped a sentiment from
Rose Wonder that I like to keep in my stash.
I seem to need these cards at no notice!
I added a layer of flowers from the
Bloomin' Heart thinlits dies.
I finished mine off with a pearl!
Hope you can play along!
head over to global-design-project.com today!

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a blessed Thursday!

Valentine's Day Bags For Classes


These are the bags for my guest to carry their cards home
from classes this week.
I saw the bags at Michael's and decided they were perfect to decorate
esp. with the gold scallop edges on top!
I cut a few hearts from the Sweet & Sassy framelits dies.
On the left, I used Pink Pirouette, gold foil and then Whisper White.
On the right, I used Real Red, gold foil and Whisper White.
Left stamped in Real Red and the right stamped in Flirty Flamingo.

I hope you enjoy your day!
Thanks for stopping by!
