Thankful for Sunday Stamps! #145

Welcome back to another challenge at Sunday Stamps!  This week we are working with a color challenge.  I decided to ink up my new Hostess stamp set called Thankful Life from the Occasions catalog.
I found that you should stamp the flower images first and then add the vase last.  I also found that it was the easiest to stamp the flowers in this order: 1) stamp the flower image (as shown above) in Early  Espresso; 2) stamp the flower image in Calypso Coral, and 3) stamp the cute little flowers as shown in Peekaboo Peach ink.  Since this is a photopolymer stamp set, it was very easy to line them up.  The results? A beautiful vase of flowers! :)

The colors in this weeks challenge made me think of field flowers.  Therefore, I thought the Hardwood background stamp set would be a great addition.  Here's this weeks challenge at Sunday Stamps!


The colors I chose to work with this weeks challenge are: Early Espresso, Smoky Slate, Peekaboo Peach and Calypso Coral.
I added some depth by stamping some of the flowers in Calypso Coral and punched them out with a 3/8" circle punch.  I used my Aqua Painter to add a shadow under the vase using Smoky Slate ink.

Thankful Card Supplies:

  • Stamps: Thankful Life (Hostess set), Hardwood
  • Ink: Early Espresso, Smoky Slate, Calypso Coral, Peekaboo Peach
  • Paper:  Thick Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Early Espresso
  • Accessories: Aqua Painter, Peekaboo Peach 3/8" Ruched Ribbon,  Peekaboo Peach Enamel Shapes, Early Espresso Marker.

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 ...
