Happy Mother's Day

 

Supplies: Stamp Sets: All Holidays, Punch Potpourri; Cardstock: Ivory Naturals, Marina Mist, Paisley Prints DSP; Accessories: 3/8" Taffeta Ribbon, Corner Rounder Punch, Boho Blossoms Punch, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter

 

First I would like to say a big Happy Mother's Day to my Mom and to all Mother's out there!! Here is the card I made for my Mom this year. My Mom's favorite color is blue so that is what started my process in making her card. This is the Paisley Prints DSP that was in the April promotion and will not be back until July when the new Catalog is out. The greeting is part of the All Holidays stamp set, and the flowers come from the hostess set Punch Potpourri. The ribbon is 3/8" Marina Mist Taffeta Ribbon, I also used dazzling diamond glitter on the flowers and on swirls by the greeting!

I am happy with how this card turned out, it simple yet elegant! I am sure my Mom will love it.

Sunny Fun

Supplies: Stamp Set: Sunny Fun; Cardstock: Melon Mambo, Concord Crush, Naturals Ivory, Regal Rose; Ink: Basic Black, Melon Mambo, Regal Rose, Concord Crush (bright colors were all using stampin' markers); Accessories: Square Lattice Emboss Folder, Corner Rounder Punch, 1/8" Whisper White Ribbon

Here in Minnesota we are finally starting to see the temperatures rise a little, lol! One of my favorite things about summer is flip flops! I seriously live in them when the whether is hot, which isn't too long here in Minnesota, lol!

So when I saw this NEW set in the Stampin' Up! Summer Mini: Sunny Fun, I just had to have it! You can find the set here. The flip flops are actually all in a row together but I decided to color them, emboss them with the square lattice emboss folder and cut them apart. I like how it turned out but let me tell you I would not do that for a swap! Lol!

Thursday Challenge#047: Stamp that Tune: Great Friend

Wow, this has surely been a busy week! I cannot believe we are already to Thursday. So that brings us to another Thursday Challenge this week we took inspiration from "Heart Dog & Butterfly! I decided to use a butterfly on my card. Like I said before this has been a busy week for me, so I decided that a quick and simple card was in order.

I used the Stampin' Up! Set Great Friend and the greeting is from the hostess set Occassional Quotes. We learned how to make these cute frames at the Spring Stampin' Regionals in Minneapolis. I started with a 2 1/2" square of Regal Rose Cardstock, then I center my punch and just punched once on each side. Didn't it turn out great! Another reason to love punches, there is so much you can do with them!

Supplies: Stamp Set: Great Friend, Occassional Quotes; Cardstock: Naturals Ivory CS, Regal Rose CS; Ink: Melon Mambo; Accessories: Basic Pearl Jewel Accents; Scallop Trim Border Punch

Thursday Challenge#046 Color My World

This weeks challenge used a fabulous color combo. One of the greatest parts of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is all the different ways to get ideas! In February I was able to attend a Stampin' Up! Regional Seminar and this card was one of our make and takes. I just changed the colors for our challenge this week and love how it turned out.

This card uses the Paisley Prints DSP again, when I first saw the challenge for this week, I was bummed because I didn't have any River Rock cardstock left and then I was looking through my designer papers and wow there it was River Rock, YEAH!! I also used champagne mist on the dsp and the bird cage to give it a little more sparkle! I hope you enjoy the card!

Supplies: Cardstock: Marina Mist, Cherry Cobbler, Paisley Prints DSP, Whisper White; Ink: Marnia Mist; Accessories: 3/8" Marina Mist Taffeta Ribbon, Florettes
