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.

Supplies:

Painted Poppies, Many Messages

Memento Black, Smoky Slate ink

Stampin' Write Markers

Very Vanilla, Magenta Madness, Balmy Blue card stock

Glimmer Paper

Scalloped Contours dies

Messages die

Retired embossing folder

Stripes and Splatters folder

Stampin' Up!'s cling stamps

February Stamp Club

 

We had a great group for Stamp Club this week, I always love those nights!  These are the cards we made - the first one I have shown before with a little different twist - it uses the Lacy and Lovely Stamp set.

 

 

This one showcases the paper doilies and uses the Affection Collection stamp set.

 

Finally, the layout using Madison Avenue and Sycamore Street designer series paper.

Snowflakes

The Late Night Stampers Challenge this week is Snowflakes and I thought I would do something other than a card this time.  I used a foam wreath that I found at Target in the dollar section and covered it with some retired Candy Cane Lane designer fabric.

 

 

Then I added some glimmer paper snowflakes, ribbon and buttons for a really quick and fun snowflake wreath.

 

The strips of fabric and all the other elements were added with pins - no adhesive at all on this one.
