Picture inspired card…….

One of my favorite yahoo groups, SSUS, has a challenge every week and a few weeks ago this picture

was our inspiration to create a card.  I loved the colors and polka dots and this is what I came up with

I started with a base of Whisper White card stock and then took another piece and ran it through the Big Shot, using Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder.  The flowers are from Bordering on Romance, in the Occasion Mini catalog.  I stamped the flowers onto the Whisper White cs, using basic black ink and then I stamped the image again on a scratch whisper white cs.  I colored in the main image using SU markers and on the scratch image, I colored in just the 3 flowers, cut them out, applied pop dots and attached them on the top.  Finally I added Rhinestone Jewels to the center of each flower. I used Sincere Salutations and stamped the saying down the side, added a little Melon Mambo cs and the card is finished.

Supplies:

  • Bordering on Romance and Sincere Salutations stamp sets
  • Whisper White & Melon Mambo card stocks
  • Basic Black & Melon Mambo ink pads
  • SU Markers
  • Rhinestone Jewels & pop dots
  • Big Shot & Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder

Thanks for stopping by!  I loved having you visit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bring on the cake…..

There is only a few more days for you to order anything and everything from the Occasions Mini catalog and the Spring is Blossoming promotion.  You have until April 30, 2011!!  What are you waiting for??

I've created a girly birthday card, using items from the Occasions Mini catalog.

The base of the card is Melon Mambo followed by a layer of Wild Wasabi and then a piece of Sweet Stitches designer series paper.  I sure do hope that "Bring on the Cake" stamp set will make it into the new catalog, I so love using it.  I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed on that one!  I stamped the saying in Basic Black ink and colored it in with SU markers.  Then its layered onto Wild Wasabi and Melon Mambo card stocks.  Then there is pop dots added and finally the Melon Mambo pompom trim.  I found the best way to use the pompom trim is by using glue dots.  They are small enough to fit behind the trim and you can't see them.

Supplies:

  • Bring on the Cake stamp set
  • Melon Mambo, Wild Wasabi and Whisper White card stock
  • Sweet Stitches designer series paper
  • Basic Black ink pad and SU Markers (wild wasabi and daffodil delight)
  • Melon Mambo pompom trim
  • Glue dots and pop dots

Be sure to come back this week and see some more samples, made with items from the Occasion Mini catalog.

 

Thank you for taking the time to stop by, if you have a minute, please leave me a comment.  I would love to know what you think about my card.

 

Happy Stampin'~

TSSC 165

It's still Monday, by a few hours and here is this week's sketch challenge:

I love this sketch, I just didn't have all the time and energy to create mine.  Poor little Lindsay has the flu bug, running a high fever, chills, coughing, etc.  It's so hard to tend to her because she can't tell you what she wants or needs yet.  She almost two, but not till next week.  Anyways here is my card:

This is a bright and cheery card that represents Spring, which also happens to be this week's challenge over at the Late Night Stampers.  The base of the card is Pear Pizzazz followed by Whisper White and then m>Blushing Bride.  I took the scallop trim border punch and punched out the Whisper White card stock and then added a piece of Pear Pizzazz designer series paper from the Level 1 hostess items in the Idea Book and Catalog.  I stamped the saying, which is from the Level 2 hostess set in the Occasion Mini Catalog, in Regal Rose ink.  The flowers are from For All You do stamp set, I used the rock-n-roll technique on them.  Blushing Bride and then rock-n-roll into Regal Rose, cut them out and added a pearl jewel to each one.  Added pop dots of two of the flowers and then attached to the card.  Finally, using my tool spritzer and a Regal Rose marker, I added a few specs of color and then added Vanilla Shimmer Spritz to the card.

Supplies:

  • For All You Do and Something to Celebrate stamp sets
  • Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride and Whisper White card stock
  • Designer Series Paper pack – In Colors (Level 1 hostess item)
  • Blushing Bride and Regal Rose ink pads
  • Scallop Trim border punch, Pearl Jewels, Vanilla Shimmer Spritz and pop dots
  • Tool Spritzer, Regal Rose SU marker
