Christmas Lovely

I just love this card. It's very vibrant IRL. I made it for the last VSN on SCS last month, but never got it loaded. Yes, I know, I have more cards that didn't get loaded than loaded. I'll do better next time! LOL

I had a very productive day at work today, and love the fact that there's only 3 more days in the work week.

My friend that came over yesterday can't wait to do more stamping!!!! She even dreamed about stamping last night! I think I've created a monster, just like the rest of us!! LOL

Here's the deets on my card:

Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Christmas Cardinal (sentiment)
Paper: Going Grey, Real Red, Whisper White
Ink: VersaMark
Misc: Red embossing power, silver embossing powder, ribbon, sticker

Have a wonderful evening, and make sure to scroll down to the post below this one, becasue there's blog candy up for grabs!!!

Happy Stamping!

Sweet Pansies

This is such a sweet card IMO. Pansies are my favorite flowers to grow. I love all the colors and kinds! They are just lovely to behold.

This card is one of 2 that you get to make with the Simply Sent set from Stampin' Up. You get enough pre-cut card stock to make 10 cards total, 5 of each image. You also get 3 ink spots, the aqua painter & all the other items necessary to make the cards including glue dots. Let me know if you're interested in more purchasing information.

Stamps: Petite Pansies
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Perfect Plum
Paper: Close to Cocoa, Elegant Eggplant, Very Vanilla Perfect Plum
Misc: aqua painter, grossgrain ribbon, distressing tool

Winnie & I went out to a local stamping store today. It was a beautiful day, so we had the top down on the car. Winnie was strapped into her car seat, and we just let our hair blow in the wind. It was so nice, except we tried to come home a different way than we went out there, and of course we got lost! But, eventually we found a road we knew and made it home.

Still haven't rented our townhouse, so please keep good thoughts for us. I did get an email from someone moving from CA who is interested in looking at it. I'll call him in a little while.

Guess that's about it for this evening. Hope everyone is having a wonderful long weekend.

Happy Stamping!

Pretty Ornaments Card

These colors are really washed out on this card. They are much darker IRL. I really wish you could see it in real life too!

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days. Had to get my nails done one night, and my hair another night, and was really really tired last night (Friday), but I'm back now.

Here's the deets on the card:

Stamps: Delightful Decorations (available in the Stampin' Up mini catalog)
Ink: Real Red
Paper: Real Red, Whisper White, Merry Moments DSP
Misc: ornament punch (available in the mini catalog), gold braided cord, 3/4" circle punch, pop dots

I hope everyone is having a lovely Labor Day weekend. It's turned back warm here (93 today) even though they said mid 80s.

Have a wonderful evening.

Happy Stamping!

Green Cherry Birthday

I was going for a rustic look with this card, but it didn't turn out quite like I thought it should. Therefore, this is the only one I made. Let me know what you think.

Stamps: Simple Delights
Paper: Kiwi Kiss, Close to Cocoa , unknown DSP
Ink: Kiwi Kiss
Misc: Cardmakers Card Quotes, chalks

Sorry I didn't get a post done last night. We met the realtor at our new house to do another walk through to make notes of anything that the builder needed to address before we go to closing. I had forgotten a lot about the house, so it was really good to get back in there & get a look around. DH also took pics so we can refer to them.

Happy Stamping!

3x3 Pizza Box

This is another VSN challenge that I didn't get loaded. We were to make a pizza box in red. I decided to make some cards to go in it. Some are any occasion, and some are birthday. I used a lot of different border punches to make the medallions, and Candy Lane DSP along with Riding Hood Red & Pink Pirouette paper. Any stamping was done in Riding Hood red.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. It's sunny todayk and very nice out.

Happy Stamping
