Birthday Blooms

Hello, and happy Friday! We made it through another week over here and I will be spending the entire weekend driving back and forth for a traveling soccer tournament for our youngest child still at home.  Today's card showcases another all time favorite stamp set that is retiring: Birthday Blooms.


This flower never gets old if you ask me.  It's so fun to color and especially with Stampin' Blends.  As you can see, I am continuing with the same card base layout as my previous posts.  I was serious when I said I made a bunch of the card bases.  Note: I still have more to share with you next week! ha!

I just love this!  Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends for the flower and Powder Pink DSP and cardstock.  Really so soft and pretty together.

But then there's Rich Razzleberry.  I know that in this particular photo it does NOT look like Rich Razzleberry.  Sometimes I have difficulty getting the correct colors in the photo and Lemon Lime Twist was not cooperating without changing the effect of the flower colors.  So although this is "purple", it's supposed to be Rich Razzleberry. :0


I used Fresh Fig 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon to complement my Rich Razzleberry flower.  I love this retiring ribbon too!

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 ...
