Distressed Florals

Hey stampers! Simon Says Stamp's Monday Challenge this week is called Grunge It Up.  So that's what I did.  I had a couple of deluxe bath soap wrappers that had pretty soft-looking flower pictures on them, so I went to work.  I added some packaged small die cuts that could be used with the soap …

Miss You

Hello, My elderly parents live 500 miles away.  I wanted to make them a card to let them know I always think of them and pray for them, even though they already know it.  I've been looking for a chance to use my new ornate background stamp.  Opportunity has arisen! When taking card photos, light …

Yellow Beauty Rose

Hi there, I couldn't wait to get Altenew's new Build-a-Flower Rose Set.  I ordered it as soon as it came out.  I've had Altenew's Vintage Roses Set for a long time.  They, too, are layering stamps.  I don't use them often because I find layering stamps to be a challenge to get them aligned.  But …

Pumpkin Time

  Pumpkin time, pumpkin time, I love pumpkin time!  I love to look at pumpkins.  I love pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins and pumpkin cake.  And don't ever forget pumpkin pie!  Give me a pumpkin spice latte and I'm good to go.  I love smelling pumpkin spice candles.  I delight in pumpkin and autumn decorations.  Pumpkins …

Twinkle

  Hello, I'm back with another card with stars.  My intention for this card was for Christmas, but after completing it, I think it could be used for a birthday or congratulations as well.  Again, no time for detailed instructions, but I will give you a list of materials used.  Since so much went into …

Anchored

 Hey Stampers,  This week Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is Nautical, so I went with white embossed watercolor paper and an anchor stamp.  Gelatos were just the ticket to blend colors on this special watercolor paper.  Let's get started! 110# Neenah Crest Solar White Cardstock American Crafts Bible Journaling, Be Still  MISTI Stamping Tool or …

Lacy Blossoms

Hey, I wanted to use something from my scrap pile, you know, the experimental items you made but didn't use on your project.  So I pulled out this white embossed panel.  I trimmed it down so it would have a border around it on an A2 size card.  Here you can see it. CARDBASE:   …

Sparkle

Hi all, I actually made this card before I made the previous card posted.  I was trying to improve on this card when I made the other one.  I don't know that I did.  Anyway, on this one I smooshed the ink onto the front panel using a small acrylic sheet.  After applying some ink …

Leave a Little Sparkle

Hello, Here's a birthday card I made for a friend who has a sparkling personality.  On the inside of the card, I wrote, "Sparkle and shine on your special day!  Happy Birthday!"   I wish you could see the sparkle in the photo.  The camera doesn't do it justice.    The sparkle was made by …
