God's Blessings

 

The stamp set used on this card is retired, but I keep going back to the sentiments.  It is called God's Blessings and I paired it with some Print Poetry dsp and the Lacy Brocade folder. 

 

 

I cut a piece of floral trim and added it as an accent as well.

 

Supplies:

God's Blessings

Crumb Cake, Not Quite Navy, Very Vanilla card stock

Early Espresso classic ink

flower trim

Lacy brocade folder

 

April Stamp Club projects

 

This month for Stamp Club, we did a chalkboard technique card and I revamped a make and take I had used at a retreat recently for our second card.

 

 

For the layout, I created a hybrid one using the Lemonade Stand content disc that was available during Sale-a-bration and added some photo mats to the printed pages.

 

This card was used as a make and take recently, I added the ribbon and popped up the saying which comes from Wacky Wishes.  The other stamp set used on this card is Everything Eleanor.

 

The chalkboard technique card was a pretty simple one.  We had a layer of Perfect Plum that was embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder as the background and used the stamp set From My Heart for the sentiment.  I gave them the option of adding some doodles with a white gel pen as well.

 

Some closer pictures of the 12 x 12 layouts...

Bordering on Romance

 

Once in awhile I will get out my markers and decide to do a bunch of coloring, but not very often because I don't love to do it. 

 

I stamped a bunch of these flower images from the Bordering on Romance stamp set and colored them in with Certainly Celery, Wild Wasabi, Pretty in Pink, Pink Pirouette and So Saffron.

 

I left the card without a sentiment for now, thinking it could be for a wedding or bridal shower possibly...

Swap card

 

This is one of the cards I used for our swaps at the Scrapbooking retreat at Park River Bible Camp a short time ago. 

 

 

I left a sentiment off so that the person who used the card could decide the occasion.

 

The inside is pretty simple too with just a textured dress and ribbon.
