AESTAMPS A LATTE

This is a quilt card I made back in January at my up line's (Chris Smith) home.  I added the embossed flower using  the Daydream Medallions stamp set along with the SAB stamp set Madison Avenue .  These two stamp sets work well together.  The flower petals were made with  the Floral Frames Framelits die.  I will probably store these two sets together. : )  Recipe: Daydream Medallions, Madison Avenue (SAB) and Vintage Verses (SAB) stamp sets; Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Island Indigo and Tangerine Tango card stock; Island Indigo, Versa Mark pad inks; White Emb. powder, Floral Frames Framelits, Postage Stamp punch, Square Lattice Emb. Folder, Pool Party SAB button and Whisper White Bakers Twine. Enjoy your day!  I have limited time to create my youngest child's birthday card...which is tomorrow!  Happy Stamping, and hope you get to stamp a latte!

Hello!  I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend.  Mine was filled with hockey and sleepovers. : ) This weekend we are heading up north for a weekend long hockey tournament.  Should be a lot of fun - even if we don't win...parents will actually get to socialize! Woo-Who! Here's a card I made a while back.  I'm not very good at taking pictures and getting them onto my blog in a timely fashion....but hey, I'm doing it now! : )  I love how it turned out...and will case the layout for the other word choices in the Amazing Family stamp set .  Obviously I will use masculine paper for the brother/father cards. : )  Supplies used: Amazing Family and Madison Avenue (SAB) stamp sets; River Rock, Pool Party, Whisper White card stock and Sycamore Street DSP (SAB) Stazon Black, Pool Party, River Rock and Rich Razzleberry ink; Window Frames Framelits, Festive Paper-piercing template,  Tasteful Trim Bigz Die, Little Leaves Sizzlits, Floral Frames...

I know I haven't shared many cards since the begining of the year, but family (and hockey) comes first! : ) I debated if I should even post these cards...but decided that it would still be fun to share even if these are not my best....I procrastinated making my own kids cards/treat bags to the last minute.  Ever happen to you??? Anyways, these are the very quickly made cards I gave my children this morning.  Happy Valentines Day everyone!!!  Like I said, not my best by any means...but they liked them anyways...and its the thought that counts, right???  Happy stamping!

Today our son, Joshua is eighteen.  Here is the card I made for him. Colors for this card are: Not Quite Navy, Early Espresso and Crumb Cake.
