Graceful Garden Birthday

Hello, crafty friends. I have another birthday card to share with you using the Graceful Garden stamp set.  I had lots of birthdays in November and another celebration in early December.  The recipient has this stamp set, so of course I had to make her birthday card using it for her to have another sample. :)

I used the same technique for the background as I did for THIS card, stamping the Eastern Beauty dotted circle image randomly on a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and then using my Aqua Painter to splatter ink droplets onto it.


I embossed the flower in Gold, and colored it using the Bermuda Bay and Old Olive Stampin' Blends Combo Pack.  The flower was fussy cut out, and adhered with Dimensionals.  I added some Wink of Stella to the petals, but I was not able to capture the sparkle in the photo.  To finish it off, I added some Gold Metallic Shapes.

Card Supplies:
  • Graceful Garden, Eastern Beauty and Hardwood stamp sets;
  • Thick Very Vanilla, Very Vanilla and Bermuda Bay cardstock;
  • Bermuda Bay and White Craft ink;
  • Versamark, Gold Embossing Powder, Bermuda Bay and Old Olive Stampin' Blends, Metallic Shapes, Clear Wink of Stella, Aqua Painter and retired Bermuda Bay ribbon.


Place an online order of $30 or $50 and receive a sampling pack of the 2016-2018 In Color Paper Stack and matching 1/2" Woven Ribbon as my FREE thank you gift!  Details are HERE.

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 ...
