Saying Goodbye

Hello, crafty friends.  I took a few days off to recuperate and am refreshed and ready to share some more ideas with you.  My focus over the next week or so will be on retiring products. 

My first share for you uses the retiring Pretty Parasol and the Under my Umbrella stamp sets; the retiring Umbrella Builder Builder punch, the retiring Butterfly Gems and highlighting the retiring 2019-2021 In Colors. 

My first of 5 card focuses on the In Color: Pretty Peacock.   

I also used one of the stencils from the March Paper Pumpkin kit to create the sun for my cardFor my first go with the sun stencil, I used So Saffron ink and the Blending Brushes.

Here is another CASE of the above card highlighting the retiring In Color: Rococo Rose.
For this background, I used Daffodil Delight ink to create my sun.

My third CASE highlights the retiring In Color: Terracotta Tile.
For this sun, I used Daffodil Delight and Mango Melody ink- which I added on top of the Daffodil 
Delight and after the fact so it is a little blurry/off.

And my forth creation highlights the retiring In Color: Seaside Spray.
For this sun I used Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie.  As you can see, I added the Pumpkin Pie ink mostly to the center area of the sun.   

And last, but not least is my 5th CASE highlighting the In Color: Purple Posy.
For this sun, I chose to see what it looked like if I made the sun rays fading away as they went out.  Can I just say how much fun it is to experiment with ink and paper? lol  

And as a side note: since we don't have a Purple Posy ink pad, I used Highland Heather ink that was first stamped off onto scratch paper before stamping the umbrella image.  And for my last change up, I decided to color the boots with my Purple Posy Stampin' Blends as opposed to using the matching In Color DSP.  

And finally, here are all the cards spread out so that you can see more easily how I slightly changed the sun for each card.  I think this will make a great gift set!

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 ...
