My Friend

It has been quite awhile since I pulled out the Painted Poppies stamp set and made a card with it. I love how easy the images are to color in with either Stampin' Write markers or Stampin' Blends and for this image, I used Stampin' Write markers.

In the background, I have some Glimmer paper along with Balmy Blue and Magenta Madness card stock that were embossed with retired embossing folders. The flower layer was die cut using the Scalloped Contours dies and the sentiment was die cut with the Messages Die.

Memento Black, Smoky Slate ink

Stampin' Write Markers

Very Vanilla, Magenta Madness, Balmy Blue card stock

In the Moment

Here are a couple of card ideas using the In the Moments stamp set and lots of die cuts and Stampin' Blends.

They each use some retired designer series paper and I love to use scraps of old paper and card stock on cards like these in the background. You will also see there are some retired doilies for a little added touch as well.

I used the Layering Squares, Stitched So Sweetly and Scalloped Contours dies to create some layers and the Classic Label punch for the sentiments.

There are lots of different Stampin' Blends used on the two cards, with the images, the possibilities are endless!

Craft a homemade card that encourages loved ones to take time for themselves with the In the Moment Stamp Set.

On one side there are flower patterns and on the other, there are very colorful watercolors patterns that showcase lots of Stampin' Up!'s fun colors.

I used two pieces of the same 12" x 12" sheet for the backgrounds on these cards and stamped images using the Happiness Abounds stamp set which coordinates with this designer series paper.  The accents are from the new Glossy Dots assortment.

Daisy Sympathy

I love the Daisy Garden stamp but sometimes I do not want to use the entire image on a project, so I decided to just use a portion of it on these sympathy cards.  First, I die cut the scalloped rectangles with the Scalloped Contours dies and then I used the Daisy Garden stamp and some Crumb Cake ink, picking the part of the image I wanted to use.

The designer series paper in the background is from the Heart and Home collection and I used the Inspired Thoughts stamp set for my sentiment.

I thought the sentiment on this card was appropriate as we approach the new year - anything is possible...

The designer series paper in the background comes from the Daffodil Afternoon collection that will be in the Sale-a-bration catalog next week. Even though it is retired, I used Rococo Rose card stock for my base because I thought it blended well with the designer series paper.
