Mother's Day Card

While Mother's Day has already passed I thought I would still share this card with you since you could easily add a different sentiment to the middle of it. 

I used a strip of the Sale-a-bration designer series paper called Wildflower Fields and the stamp set from the April 2016 Paper Pumpkin set. 

For accents I added some basic rhinestones and a tea lace paper doily.

Supplies:

April 2016 Paper Pumpkin

Lost Lagoon ink

Crum Cake, Basic Black, Lost Lagoon card stock

tea lace paper doilies

decorative label punch

basic rhinestones

SAB 2016 Wildflower fields dsp

circle punch

Best Thoughts

 

As we anticipate the end of the 2016-2017 Idea book and Catalog, I am sharing a quick and easy card made with one of the hostess stamp set that will be retiring.  This set is called Best thoughts and I just love the big flower image.

 

I chose a piece of Wildflower Fields designer series paper (SAB 2016) for a background piece and stamped my sentiment on a piece of Perfectly Artistic designer series paper (SAB 2016).  The flower image is stamped on Daffodil Delight.

 

Supplies:

Best Thoughts

Basic Black ink

Whisper White, Daffodil Delight card stock

Wildflower Fields dsp (SAB 2016)

Perfectly Artistic dsp (SAB 2016)

 

One Tiny Word



This card started out with the pieces of Pool Party card stock that were in my scrap pile.  I decided to add some washi tape to one of the pieces and some Wildflower Fields dsp (SAB 2016) behind it before adding it to a card base.

 



 

Then I stamped the side with an image from Stamp A Bag and added the sentiment and some designer buttons.

 

I love playing with the scraps, I just end up with way too many of them :)

 

Supplies:

One Big Meaning, Stamp a Bag

Pool Party, Old Olive ink

Whisper White, Pool Party, card stock

washi tape

designer buttons

 

Coffee and Cake

 

I did a little playing around with the A Nice Cuppa stamp set lately (I have another card to share Wednesday).  For this one, I paired it with the Balloon Celebration stamp set and Wildflower Fields designer series paper (SAB 2016).  Remember, this paper is soon no longer available!

 

I chose a Night of Navy card base before adding my die cuts and other elements and then added a piece of Whisper White to the inside.

 

A little more stamping and a little bit more of the designer series paper and it was completed.

 

Supplies:

A Nice Cuppa, Balloon Celebration

Watermelon Wonder, Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy ink

They Say...

 

I really like the patterns in the Wildflower Fields designer series paper (SAB 2016) as well as the color combinations - Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, Calypso Coral, Hello Honey, Lost Lagoon, Old Olive and Whisper White...

 

For this card, I chose one of the patterns and went with the colors that are in it.  I added some balloons on my piece of Whisper White by using the Balloon Celebration stamp set.  The sentiment is stamped with the Suite Sayings set and punched out with the Note tag punch.

Suite Sayings, Balloon Celebration

Smoky Slate, Blackberry Bliss ink

February Stamp Club projects

 

Today I am sharing this month's stamp club projects.  The first is a card using the Suite Sayings stamp set with Wildflower Fields designer series paper (SAB 2016), Circles framelits and the tags and labels framelits collection.

 

For our second card, I chose the Perfect Pairings stamp set (SAB 2016) and the Have a Cuppa designer series paper set.

 

Finally, for the layout this month I did something a little different.  I used the Memories in the Making Project Life collection, including the pack found in the Sale-a-bration flyer and made them a 12 x 12 pocket page. 

 

If you enjoyed these projects and would like to try out either my monthly stamp club or my virtual one, contact me here for more information.

 

 

For Being You

 

In this year's Sale-a-bration catalog there are some different options for items other than stamp set as always.  The first which is only available until the end of today as it is a limited time only item is called Perfectly Artistic dsp.  There is also a Project Life specialty card collection called Memories in the Making and a Vellum paper stack called Botanical Gardens, but my favorite is the Wildflower Fields designer series paper and I have used it in today's card.



 

I chose two different patterns and then attached them to my card base.  There is a small strip of Blushing Bride card stock over their seam and then I added some white cotton ribbon and a piece of Blackberry Bliss striped stitched ribbon for a bow.

 

The sentiment comes from the Suite sayings stamp set and I used my Lost Lagoon and Blackberry Bliss markers to ink it up.

 

Supplies:

Suite Sayings

 Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon markers

Pool Party, Blushing Bride, Whisper White card stock

My Heart Smiles



 

Before I get to today's card...I am going to be on vacation for the next week or so and instead of not posting anything I decided to post some great videos from Stampin' Up! so I hope you enjoy them!  The videos will start on Wednesday...

 

There is a stamp set in the occasions catalog called Suite Sayings that I just love.  There are so many occasions offered in just one set!!

 



 

For this card, I die cut a piece for my saying with the Tags and Labels framelits and then stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink.

 

I added a couple layers of Wildflower Fields designer series paper from the Sale-a-bration catalog  and some white baker's twine...

Hello My Friend

 

I used this little note card holder as a door prize for my last Stamp A Stack, it is big enough to hold more than 8 note cards and envelopes...

 



 

I used the Wildflower Fields designer series paper and Hello stamp set which are both Sale-a-bration FREE items along with some Cherry Cobbler, Lost Lagoon and Pink Pirouette card stock.

 

To close the little folder, I added two antique brads and some bakers twine, tying the twine around one brad and wrapping it around the other.

 

My note cards were 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" and I stamped the images below using the Number of Years stamp set.

 

Supplies:

Number of Years, Hello (SAB 2016)

Pink Pirouette, Pear Pizzazz, Lost Lagoon, Cherry Cobbler ink

Hello

 

I just love the colors in the Wildflower Fields Designer Series paper pack in the Sale-a-bration 2016 catalog although not all the patterns are my favorite.  The pattern I used below is probably my favorite (and remember you can get this one for free with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-bration starting January 5th!).

 

I also used the stamp set called Hello which is in the same Sale-a-bration catalog!!  I cut out the little party hats with the paper snips and added them with Stampin' dimensionals.

 

Supplies:

Hello (SAB 2016)

Lost Lagoon, Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey ink

Crumb Cake, Whisper White card stock
