Summer Shadows No.3

 Hello, and happy Monday! I hope you had a nice weekend. Mine was one of the most memorable weekends I have had spending time with my daughter at her new position as the Band Director at Valley City, ND.  It was homecoming weekend with a parade downtown followed by the homecoming football game.  Lots of band performances from her kiddos and it was so exciting to watch her be the awesome teacher she is and worked so hard to become.  Her students were so sweet and respectful.  My heart is full.  xxoxo 

Today, I am sharing my third creation using the Summer Shadows Dies. This is is a fun set of dies that you can get for FREE only during  Sale-a-bration.  Don't miss out! Sale-a-bration ends Thursday, September 30th!  

The Summer Shadows Dies coordinate with the Shaded Summer stamp set. 


SHADED SUMMER stamp set

SUMMER SHADOWS Dies

The die cut flowers are so pretty that I decided to make a wedding/anniversary card and accented my flowers with a little bit of gold embossing.
My cardstock colors are: Pale Papaya, So Saffron, Highland Heather and Soft Succulent.


To keep my flowers on the soft and elegant side, I used tone on tone for my flowers, but they can really pop if the top die cut layer is a darker color as I did in my first card I shared HERE.


Don't miss out on this gorgeous set of dies which are FREE only during Sale-a-bration!

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday!  Right now I am knee deep in making decorations for my daughter's upcoming baby shower next weekend and the theme is Winnie the Pooh! lol :)  I am going to be a grandma for the first time and all I can say is that I am really is exciting! I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink. The 3rd flower was stamped using Fresh Freesia ink. I first stamped off onto scratch paper and then used full strength for the detailed/outline stamp. Next, I d...

Perfectly Pears for Sunday Stamps!

 It's Sunday and today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! Yahoo!  I love card challenges because it makes you think outside the box and at the same time gives you something to create with whether it be a color challenge or a sketch challenge.   For this weeks creation, I focused on the new Online Exclusive Bundle called Perfectly Pears .  This bundle is part of a suite and the products in the suite are gorgeous.  For this particular creation, I focused on the adorable set of pears and a few of the coordinating dies. I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
