Stampin Blends

Stampin Up Wonderful Romance Bundle

If this isn't the most pretty and romantic set, I don't know what is. The Wonderful Romance bundle has me head over heels in love. Its just so classy and elegant.

IMG_8579This comes with a complete suite of coordinating products. The Floral Romance designer paper, Floral Romance Seals, and of course the beautiful Lace emboss folder to name a few.

IMG_8578Again, pretty easy to color. I used the Stampin' Blends alcohol markers in blackberry bliss and old olive, with a touch of daffodil delight in the middle of the flower and crumb cake for the tiny spray of leaves. How cool is the self adhesive gold Floral Seal? It makes the card look so elegant.

IMG_8577The Floral designer paper is simply gorgeous. It includes several sheets of printed velum and the best thing about it, is that the snail adhesive doesn't show through!

This is a must have bundle and suite! Great for weddings, engagements, thinking of you and more. If you don't have it yet, you certainly should consider the worth while purchase!

Thanks for coming by today.

Until the next time...

Stampin Up All That You Are stamp set

Another great floral stamp set that's an easy to color image. I love that its big and bold and simple to add beautiful color with the Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. Can you tell that I'm ready for Spring?

IMG_8564The colors on this birthday greeting are daffodil delight and granny apple green, with a bit of pumpkin pie in the middle of the flower.

IMG_8565I always start with the lightest Stampin Blends color and shade with the darker color. So in this case I used the light daffodil delight and then shaded with the dark daffodil delight- I did the same with the granny apple green.

IMG_8563Of course, I always love to use pretty ribbon on my cards and for this card, I also used the Trio Punch to decorate the corner. Such a pretty addition.

Thanks for visiting today!

Until the next time...

How To: Easy Fold with Amazing Life stamps

I've got 3 cards with the same fold and same stamp set to show you today. I decided to use bright and fun greens, night of navy and pineapple punch colors for these Amazing Life greeting cards.

The first card is a wish for good luck- with St. Patricks day right around the corner, I thought it was appropriate.

IMG_8469The fold is very simple: fold a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" granny apple green cardstock in half... then fold the front flap up to meet the fold. Thats it!

IMG_8471 IMG_8468
Each card features a "Happiness Blooms" Enamel dot. Can you spot all 3? I also used the "Happiness Blooms designer paper on all of the cards as well.

This birthday card also features the new Stitched Rectangle dies as does the other two cards. The dies add just the right amount of texture.

IMG_8473All 3 cards are also colored with the night of navy, pineapple punch, granny apple green and call me clover Stampin Blends alcohol markers.

IMG_8465This card is the same size as the others and its also folded in the same way, except its vertical instead of horizontal.

IMG_8466 IMG_8467
Are you liking all the green? Well, it is almost St. Patty's day.. right?

I hope you like this stamp set, it really is a great versatile set for many fun occasions.

I glad you stopped by!

Humming Bird in Flight

I've got another hummingbird card to share. I've been using this set a LOT lately. I love to color, so I guess this is right up my alley. Its actually very easy to color. I googled "hummingbirds" and found many different color combinations on these unique little birds.

IMG_8597Orange and blue are complimentary colors, so I used balmy blue and calypso coral for my color inspiration here.

IMG_8600I colored the bird with Stampin Blends alcohol markers in smoky slate, old olive, balmy blue and calypso coral. Check out how cute the little Frosted Flower Embellishments are on this card- I added a Share What You Love Pearl to the middle of the flowers as well.

IMG_8599A little bit of Gingham designer paper and its ready to mail!

Hope you like it.

Thanks for stopping by!

Stampin Up Humming Along bundle

The Humming Along bundle in the Stampin Up Catalog is a gorgeous hummingbird and hibiscus set. Speaking of hibiscus flowers... I'm soon to be in Hawaii, for a Stampin Up presentation that I am doing for my friend Cindy Baughman and the Stamped with Aloha team. I may already be there when this posts. I know this is one of Cindys favorite flowers, and I'm looking forward to seeing a few in person!

IMG_8561I used some bright and sunny Stampin Blends alcohol markers to color the images. Mango Melody, pool party, highland heather, granny apple green, pumpkin pie and bermuda bay colors worked beautifully on this card.

IMG_8560The new Crackle Paint background stamp in mango melody ink, added the perfect background without competing with the images.

IMG_8562I think this bright and sunny greeting card would make anyone feel better, don't you?

Thanks a bunch for checking in today.

Until the next time...

How To: Shaker Card using Sweetest Thing candy jar bundle

I'm a huge fan of shaker cards and this Sweetest Thing bundle was the perfect set to use for this fun shaker card that we made recently at my Card Class. I used 2 different ideas from 2 of my stampin friends, Lynsay Mahon and Amy Storrie, to design this sweet birthday card.

IMG_8463The whole Sweetest Thing suite is so yummy! I used the How Sweet It Is designer paper as well as the new two tone ribbon and some fun Iridescent sequins.

IMG_8462

First I stamped the jar on a 2 x 3 inch piece of whisper white cardstock and colored it in with my Stampin Blends alcohol markers. I then cut out the jar with the Jar Of Sweets dies in the middle of the 4x3" How Sweet It Is designer paper. Next, I attached a piece of 2.5  x 3 inch window sheet on the back side of the designer paper with snail adhesive.

IMG_8476I then used Foam Strips cut into pieces to place closely around the jar. Next, I filled the jar with Iredescent sequins, peeled off the paper from the foam strips to expose the sticky adhesive and then attached the window sheet piece over top- lining up the cut out jar with the stamped jar.

IMG_8460I attached the Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green ribbon around the pinepple punch cardstock before attaching to the highland heather card. I then added the greeting in lovely lipstick ink.

IMG_8464Shake, Shake, Shake.... isn't this an adorable birthday card?

I hope you'll give this shaker card a try!

Until the next time...
