FMS217: Wildfower Fields

Merry after Christmas!  I hope you had an enjoyable celebration with your family and friends.  It was a quite gathering at our house, but nonetheless awesome to have all of our children here with us. :)

Today I am sharing a sympathy card I made recently following challenge no. 217 at Freshly Made Sketches.  Unfortunately, I needed a sympathy card for a very dear friend who's husband passed away after battling cancer for quite some time (insert sad face).
In making my card, I decided to use the new and beautiful designer series paper called "Wildflower Fields" that is a FREE Sale-a-bration item you can choose starting January 5, 2016 with a $50 purchase.  Here's my card:

The colors I used from this beautiful paper are: Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey and Old Olive. The flower image is from the Birthday Blooms stamp set from the 2106 Occasions catalog, and will also be available for purchase starting January 5, 2016. 

Here is the sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches challenge blog:

I also added some "splatter" in Hello Honey ink from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and some Crushed Curry washi tape and a few gold sequins.


Well, thats it for now! I hope you are getting excited about Sale-a-bration and the new 2016 Occasions catalog!  Please contact me if you would like a brochure or catalog to see these new items! 

Happy Stamping!

Quilt card

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!

Silly Old Bear Suite

 Happy Friday! Today, I have 2 very cute creations to share with you using the Silly Old Bear Suite . One Pooh Bear is a die cut right from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP , while the other Pooh Bear is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored with the new Golden Glow Stampin' Blends. Every image on 2 sheets of the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP can be die cut out using the Sweet Old Friends Dies !  How cool is that?! The first card I made (on the right side) uses the new In Color Crisp Cantaloupe.  I stamped the frame from the Sweet Old Words   Stamp Set using Crisp Cantaloupe and die cut it out using the coordinating Sweet Old Words Dies followed by another Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock layer.   I also die cut 2 honey pot images from the Silly Old Bear 12" x 12" DSP and a tree stump from the Sweet Old Friends Dies.    I created a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" money holder card using a 7 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock scored ...
