Customer "thank you" cards

I made these cards for ladies who recently took advantage of the October special and placed orders with me.  I was anxious to use the Small Oval punch with the "thank you" image from the Perfectly Preserved stamp set as I have never used my Small Oval punch -as it is new to me. : )
 I originally had planned to make 3 of the exact same card, but the thing  I love most about stamping is the "creating" part. : )  So, I guess I can say I made a "gift set" of thank you's, right?
All three canneries were made exactly the same for the mass producing I had planned to do, but that's were it ended. However,  I did decide that it would be fun to incorporate the Rose Red brads (retired SU) into each card as well as to have a similar texturing  technique for the base of the card.  Hence, the "thank you" gift set. : )  For the first card, I used the awesome Woodgrain embossing folder.
For each cannery, I sponged the jars with Raspberry Ripple ink...trying to make a jar of jelly. Not sure if I suceeded but I think it still turned out cute.  But for my last card, I decided to try something different. I ended up taking the cannery apart and randonmly stamped the cherries image from the Perfectly Preserved  stamp set to it and I made a jar of jam! : )  tee-hee. ( I do like jam better than jelly anyways). 
I used the Framed Tulips embossing folder for the second card and the Houndstooth embossing folder for the third card.  Each were sponged with Very Vanilla ink.  Colors:  Early Espresso,  Lucky Limeade,  Island Indigo and Orchard Harvest Designer Series paper.
Have a great weekend!  Annette

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.   For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears .  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous.  For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies. I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
