There's You...

Today, I am sharing one of the cards we will be making at my Make and Take Class on Saturday morning.  In honor of  Stampin' UP!s Butterfly Bundle special. Acutally, ALL of the cards we will be making on Saturday has a cute butterfly or two or three on it!  Butterflies just add that final touch to a beautiful card!

So here's my first share/sneak peak:

Isn't "she" pretty?  I just love the Beautifully Baroque embossing folder.  It's textures are so elegant.  And how about this fact: This is the first card I have made with the Chalk Talk stamp set and matching Framelits! Shocking, isn't it?  I tend to "save"(or is it hoard?) my most special papers, ribbons, accessories and even stamp sets for last/later use.  Do you know what I mean????  I like to challenge myself with other goodies I have first and save the best for last.  I know, I'm strange. I took this picture just a few minutes ago on my kitchen table. Not sure if the colors are true or not, but turned out to be the best spot for morning pictures.
Tonight I have a hot date with Michael Buble'. Oops, I mean I have a hot date with my DH, who is taking me to see Michael Buble'!  Yippee- Skippee!  So, enjoy your day, and may there by many prayers for our 9/11 victims and their families. May there be peace in the World.

Recipe: Chalk Talk and Papillon Potpourri stamp sets; Primrose Petals, Pistachio Pudding and Crumb Cake card stock; Primrose Petals, Pistachio Pudding and Versa Mark pad; White Embossing powder, sponge daubers, Beautifully Baroque embossing folder, Chalk Talk Framelits, Large Oval punch, Bitty Butterfly punch and Basic Pearls.

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...
