Sunday Stamps! #159

Hello, stamping friends.  Welcome back to a new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  This week we are working with a color challenge.
Here's what I made using the Graceful Garden stamp set.

I had so much fun experimenting with the large flower image in this set. Here's this weeks challenge:

Stampin' UP! colors I used to create my card are: Daffodil Delight, Blushing Bride and Flirty Flamingo.  

And did you notice the Garden Trellis Embossing Folder? LOVE.  I used my brayer and inked White Craft ink across the raised side of the folder before running it thru my Big Shot.  It gives it a soft, elegant look.


To create the roses, I stamped them and then water colored the edges of the petals in the same color ink using my Aqua Painter.  The vellum leaves are from the Oh So Eclectic Bundle.  I haven't touched that set yet- yikes!  I think I have too many sets, if that's possible....nooooooo!
Garden Trellis Embossing Folder (143741)


Graceful Garden (143849)





Did you know that if you place an order of at least $40 using my August Host Code, you can earn the Garden Trellis Embossing folder for FREE?  See my rewards page HERE.

Now its time to head over to the Sunday Stamps! challenge blog and see what the other design team members created and then join us.  You have until Friday, August 25, 2017, to play along.  Hope to see you join the fun!

Happy Stamping!

    Gosh Annette,

    Your card has so much to appreciate! I like the reverse embossing on the backdrop, the doily and the vellum leaves is brilliant. Great card - I'm sure it will be displayed with pride by someone special.

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 ...
