I'm Here for You

Oh my goodness...tomorrow is the magical day!  The NEW catalog goes live and you can still order from the current and Occasions catalogs too!!!  It will truly be an exciting day!!  Let's take another peak at a NEW set that you will be able to order called Friendly Wishes.



I so love the bold sentiments in this set!!!  Perfect for the chalkboard look which I think looks amazing with the NEW colors WATERMELON WONDER and CUCUMBER CRUSH.



I got my inspiration for today's card from Mary Jo's awesome Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge.



The Cherry on Top Designer Paper Stack has so many beautiful patterns, but when I saw the cherries I knew it was the one!



The card is pretty simple.  The sentiment is White Craft ink on chalkboard paper that I die cut with a circle framelit.  I layered it over the designer paper and added small flowers and leaves with the Bird Builder Punch and flower from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack.



I love how adding just one small detail can bring so much to a card!!! The little flowers really make the card look finished.

How about giving the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge a try??  You have two weeks to get creative!!  Stop over at Techno Stamper to find more details about the challenge and more gorgeous samples from the Design Team.

Flashback Friday: Travel Time

Image
Welcome to another Flashback Friday!!  Today we travel back to 2003 for the fun stamp set called Travel Time.  I thought this was an appropriate set for this week.  It is Stampin' Up!'s convention this week so a lot of demonstrators are traveling.  Here's what the set looks like. I made a CAS card (clean and simple) with this set.  I have been doing more of the clean look lately, it brings this set a more modern look. The card is very simple, Whisper White card stock and neutral inks.  Here's the details: 1.  Card base is Whisper White.  I stamped the map and suitcase in Crumb Cake .  Stamped the sentiments in Basic Gray. 2.  Stamped the card on Glossy White card stock (boy do I wish this paper was not retired) with StazOn Black ink.  Color was added with markers and blender pen.  I fussy cut the car and added it to the card with dimensionals. That's it!! A CAS card to modernize this set from 10 years ago.  Thanks for flas...

Party Animal

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week we are all featuring ANIMALS. I almost used the Playful Pals Bundle, but the fun new set BALLOON BUILDERS was calling my name! Isn't this balloon elephant too cute!!  I knew from the start that this little guy needed a string for his balloon.  Let's take a closer look. The thin silver thread was just perfect for the balloon string!  It took a couple tries to get the bow tied, but it was worth the effort! I kept the card pretty simple overall with a pretty design from the gorgeous BIRTHDAY BOUQUET paper in the background.  The elephant was stamped on Whisper White then I cut out the trunk before die cutting the rest with a circle framelit.  I had in mind that he was kind of floating in a balloon himself on the card! BUT, are you wondering why I named this post PARTY ANIMAL and then shared such a sweet and gentle little elephant??  Well, I named the post after my ten year old daughter Sofia who went...

Peachy Keen Jellybean!

Image
I used to love to say "Peachy Keen Jellybean" when I was younger so when I first saw the new Occasions catalog I smiled!  The Peachy Keen stamp set is right up my alley!!  I haven't had the chance to use the bundle much so I pulled it out for this week's Monday Lunchtime Sketch challenge. This sketch is perfect for the Peachy Keen stamps and Gorgeous Grunge. Putting together a fun yet fast card is always a good thing!  I had this card complete in 15 minutes flat...and that's with a fussy baby hanging out next to me in his stroller! The card base is Tangerine Tango with a simple layer of Whisper White. The right side has Gorgeous Grunge stamped with Coastal Cabana and Baked Brown Sugar.  I didn't want to over do it and make the card too busy, I wanted the greeting to stand out. Peachy Keen definitely stands out when stamped boldly in Tangerine Tango.  I must admit that up until the last week or so, I hardly ever used this color.  Now, I feel like I am using ...
