  • Affection Brocade Friend

    Good Sunday morning everyone. How is the weekend so far? Mine has been productive which is a very good thing. I made a few projects and then my friend Kim wanted 10 cards so I made those too. I’m off to the city today to see her and drop them off. It’s a little cloudy out now but hopefully it will clear up. Today’s card is my swap from my meeting that I said I would post last Saturday! Time just gets away sometimes when you’re having fun! The base of the card is Whisper White Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Basic Gray with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I used a piece of Primrose Petals 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon across the middle and adhered it around the sides with Sticky Strip. The stamped images are all from the Affection Collection Stamp Set and are cut out with my Paper Snips. The Scalloped cloud image is stamped in Pool Party, The No. 1 flag in Primrose Petals, the wings in Basic Gray and the friend is also stamped in Primrose Petals. They are all adhered to each other with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then to a piece of Vellum Card Stock with SNAIL. The whole thing is adhered to the card with more Stampin’ Dimensionals that I hid behind the stamped images. For a little bling I punched out a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper with the Small Heart Punch and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot. Affection Collection is definitely one of my favorite stamp sets and I love it in these colors. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and have yourselves a great day!

  • PPA 140 Affection Postage Window

    Hello everyone and welcome to Saturday! What are you all up to this weekend? I actually started cleaning last night and surprisingly got more accomplished that I thought I would. I’m off to a good start now lets see if I can keep it going! Today’s post is for the bi-monthly Pals Paper Arts Challenge. This time we have a color challenge…

    A very interesting color combination that uses one of my favorite new In-Colors, Summer Starfruit. The base of my card is Whisper White Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Baja Breeze with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The edging is made by punching a piece of Real Red with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch and cutting it in half lengthwise. I adhered the whole thing to the base with SNAIL. The middle image consist of a piece of Summer Starfruit that I cut out with the Window Frames Collection Framelits Dies and used the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack and the Paper-Piercing Tool around the edge. On top of that is a piece of Real Red and a piece of Whisper White that I stamped an image from the Affection Collection Stamp Set in Baja Breeze. I used the Modern Label Punch to punch out another piece of Summer Starfruit and Paper-Pierced the middle. To the top of that I stamped and image from the Postage Due Stamp Set in Real Red and punched it out with the Postage Stamp Punch. They are adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card. The greeting is also from the Affection Collection Stamp Set and is Stamped in Real Red and punched out with the Extra Large Oval Punch. A piece of Summer Starfruit punched out with the Decorative Label Punch is placed behind it and they are all adhered with more Stampin’ Dimensionals. I was surprised at how much I liked the card when I was finished. Most of the time I can picture exactly what I’m going to do before I start but this one took on a life of it’s own! I hope that you enjoyed this Pals Paper Arts Challenge card and thanks for visiting. Enjoy your Saturday! 🙂

  • CCMC 212 Muted Christmas

    Hello peeps and happy Friday to you all! I love Friday, it’s such a great day! I have lots to get accomplished this weekend and I’m hosting card class this monday so I have to come up with some neat projects over the weekend and bring some semblance of order to my house! Like I said, lots to do!

    Today’s post is for this week’s Create with Connie and Mary Challenge. This week the ladies have given us a color challenge…

    Like I said the other day I’m really into the non-tradiotional holiday colors. I am determined to use all kind of unusual combinations this year. The base of my card is Basic Black Card Stock. I used the Holiday Frame Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of Sahara Sand Card Stock. I adhered it to the card base with some SNAIL. The middle group starts with a piece of Real Red that I cut out with the Window Frames Collection Framelits Dies. I used the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack and my Paper-Piercing Tool around the edge. The center stamped images are from the Joyous Celebrations Stamp Set and are stamped in Real Red and Basic Black. I punched the frame out with the Extra Large Oval Punch and adhered it and the window to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A piece of retired Basic Black 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon is adhered under the window with some Sticky Strip. The greeting is from the Greetings of the Season Stamp Set and is also stamped in Real Red. I used the Itty Bitty Punch Pack to make the ticket corners on both the Whisper White and Real Red and then mounted it to the card with some more Stampin’ Dimensionals. I love the color combination and the new Holiday Frame Textured Impressions Embossing folder paired with the Joyous Celebrations Stamp Set makes Holiday cards simple and elegant! I hope that you enjoyed this week’s Create with Connie and Mary Challenge card. Have an awesome day! 🙂

  • Vanilla Burgundy Joyous Frame

    Good morning! Today’s the day! The Holiday Catalog is live! You can place your orders for the new goodies by clicking on the catalog to the right. I hope that you have enjoyed all of the sneak peeks and have gotten some inspiration from them. Today’s post uses new items from the Holiday Catalog. The base of the card is Bravo Burgundy Card Stock. I used the new Holiday Frame Textured Impressions Embossing Folder with some Very Vanilla Card Stock for the background. I flagged a piece of Bravo Burgundy and used a piece of retired Very Vanilla 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon and flagged that too and mounted it to the center of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The frame and the ornament are from the new Joyous Celebrations Stamp Set and are stamped in Bravo Burgundy. I stamped the frame on Sahara Sand and used the Extra Large Oval Punch to punch out the frame and I fussy cut the ornament with my Paper Snips. A Basic Jewels Pearl place in the center of the star finishes off the card. I really like nontraditional holiday colors. This card is a super simple quick and easy one to make and would be great for making a stack to send out to friends. Who wouldn’t want to get this card instead of a store bought one?! Don’t forget, place your order through me and start earning your Anchor Rewards towards any free stamp set of your choice. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great day! 🙂

  • Mojo 252 and Sneak Peek

    Good morning peeps! How is everyone doing today? I’m doing pretty good, made it through Monday unscathed! I hope the same holds true for all of you. Today’s post is for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. This week Julee Tilman has give us the round or square choice…

    I went with square as I always do. I know, I need to mix it up but I really like the square card better than the round one. The base of my card is Gumball Green Card Stock. I added two different pieces of Be Of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper for the background. The flagged piece of Very Vanilla is pierced using the Essentials Paper-Piercing Pack and Paper-Piercing Tool. The rectangle on top of that consists of a piece of Very Vanilla that is embossed with the new Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder* and mounted to a piece of Gumball Green. The Cherry Cobbler scalloped edge was created using the Adorning Accents Edgelits and adhered to the back before I adhered the whole thing to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I used the Circles #2 Bigz Original Die to cut out the Gumball Green circle, Paper-Pierced that too and adhered it to a piece of Cherry Cobbler that I punched out with the 2 3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch. The greeting is from the Merry & Type Stamp Set and is stamped in Gumball Green and punched out with the Scallop Oval Punch. Two SIlver Mini Brads give it a little bling. The ornaments are from the new Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set* and are stamped in Cherry Cobbler and Gumball Green. I used the coordinating Holiday Ornaments Framelits Dies to cut them out and adhered then to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I love the new bundles that they have in the Holiday Catalog, they save you 15% when you purchase the stamp set and coordinating framelits together. Today is the last day to take advantage of the Reason to Smile Promotion and bonus $50 Host(ess) promotion. Tomorrow marks the start of the Holiday Catalog order. So many decisions! LOL! I hope that you enjoyed this weeks Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge card. Thank you very much for stopping by and have yourselves a great day!

  • Pumpkin Limeade Preserved Woodgrain Thanks and Sneak Peek

    Good morning everyone and welcome to Friday! I hope that everyone has some good things planned for this weekend. It’s supposed to rain here today and tomorrow but it’s supposed to be nice on Sunday. Today’s card is a 3 x 3 that I made as a thank you for a friend of mine. The base of the card is Naturals White Card Stock and to that I added a piece of Lucky Limeade that I embossed with the new Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder*. I flagged a piece of Pumpkin Pie and on top of that I stamped the greeting from the new Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set in Lucky Limeade on Naturals White and cut it out with the Bitty Banners Framelits Dies. The pieces are adhered to the card with a small piece of Sticky Strip. I find that when I mount things to embossed card stock sometimes SNAIL just isn’t enough! The jar and the leaves on the pear are stamped in Lucky Limeade, the pear is markered in Pumpkin Pie and Early Espresso on Pumpkin Pie Card Stock and they are all cut out with the new Cannery Framelits Dies*. The stamps are also from the Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set*. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the top of the jar before I adhered all of the pieces together to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The button is a Brights Collection Designer Button and I threaded some more Linen Thread through the holes before I attached it with a Mini Glue Dot. For a little added detail I stamped the pear and leaves on the envelope. I have made a few 3 x 3 card with the new Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set but as you can see, just by changing a few elements and colors you can have a whole new look! Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy day to check in. I really appreciate it and love the comments. Have an awesome Friday!

  • Red Pool Preserved Beautiful Wings Thanks and Sneak Peek

    Hello everyone! It’s Wednesday and that means we are more than halfway through the week! How is everyone today? I’m good, I finished my swaps for my meeting on Thursday which makes me a happy camper. Today’s post is a 3 x 3 card perfect to attach to a gift or leave on a co-workers desk. I really like the new Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set from the 2012 Holiday Catalog and I thought, hmm, what else can I put in there besides fruit? I know… some butterflies! The base of the card is Whisper White Card Stock and I added a piece of Pool Party embossed with Chevron Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for the background. The jar, lid and greeting are all from the Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set* and are stamped in Pool Party and Real Red. The jar and lid are cut out with the new Cannery Framelits Dies* and the greeting is punched out with the Small Oval Punch. I used a piece of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper and a piece of Pool Party 3/8″ Ruffled Ribbon and flagged both before I adhered the jar and greeting to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The butterflies are cut out with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit from Real Red Card Stock and are also adhered with pieces of Stampin’ Dimensionals. I really like the different color combination the flagged pieces go so well with the Chevron Embossing Folder. Don’t forget a week from today you can start ordering form the new 2012 Holiday Catalog!

  • Mojo 251 and Sneak Peek

    Hello everyone and happy Tuesday! Tuesday is better than Monday but not by much! It rained here a bit yesterday but I think it’s supposed to be nice today. I have some swaps to get done for a meeting on Thursday so I will be busy later!

    Today’s post is for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. The weeks sketch is provided to us by Carole Burrage…

    What a nice simple sketch for this week, thanks Carole! The base of my card is Real Red Card Stock. I added a piece of Crumb Cake for a simple background layer. The piece of Real Red on the left is embossed using the Argyle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder on Real Red Card Stock. For the two pieces on the right I used the Clockworks Stamp Set and stamped the top image three times and the bottom image once in Real Red. The circle in the middle is a pice of Soft Suede punched out with the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch. I used the Affection Collection Stamp Set* for the scalloped cloud, stamped in Crumb Cake, and the wings which are stamped in Real Red. The pocket watch is also from the Clockworks Stamp Set and is stamped in Soft Suede. The clock face is stamped in Real Red and punched out with the 1 1/4″ Circle Punch. The hands are stamped in Soft Suede and I used a Metallic 3/16″ Brad in the center and then mounted it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The cool ribbon treatment uses one of the new Round Designer Ribbon Slides* and some Soft Suede 3/8″ Taffeta Ribbon and Real Red 1/8″ Taffeta Ribbon. I used the Simply Serif Mini Alphabet to stamp the greeting with my trusty Stamp-a-ma-jig. I really like the way the card came out and hope that you enjoy it too. Thank you very much for visiting to check out this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge card. Have an amazing day!

  • Not Quite Rose Apothecary Label Anniversary CASE

    Hello everyone and a good Sunday morning to you all. I hope that you are enjoying the weekend and having some fun outdoors. It was gorgeous here today on Long Island. Today’s card was made for two friends of mine, Chantal and Marc, for their anniversary. It’s a case from the 2012-2013 Catalog. I changed up the colors and added one thing to it. The base of the card is Whisper White Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Rose Red with the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. On top of that is a piece of Not Quite Navy cut out with the Labels Collection Framelits Dies. The main image is from the From My Heart Stamp Set and is stamped in Rose Red. I used the Apothecary Accents Framelits Dies to cut it out. For a little added interest I used the Essentials Paper Piercing Pack and Paper-Piercing Tool around the edge. I stamped the image again in Not Quite Navy and cut out just the enjoying and mounted over the original with some Stampin Dimensionals. The greeting is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set and is also stamped in Not Quite Navy and mounted on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I love the layering and like the added greeting. I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and thank you so much for taking some time out of your busy day to stop by, I appreciate it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
