Bloomin' Beautiful

Good Morning! I had some quiet time this morning so I was able to do a little stamping this morning! Yeah Everyone was still sleeping this morning so I tip toed to my craft room where I proceeded to make lots of noise :)

I used one of my favorite stamp sets called Bloomin' Beautiful item # 111490 I stamped the image in Black Stazon ink and stamped it on Whisper White card stock. I colored it in using my blender pen along with the So Saffron, and Mellow Moss classic ink pads. I used the ticket punch on all four corners. My base is Whisper White card stock, then Mellow Moss which I stamped Bloom in the lower right had corner. Next I put a piece of Designer Series So Saffron Paper and added some white organza ribbon around it. To the left side I added some clear rhinestone brads, I wanted to kick it up a little and thought the brads helped. Then I placed my stamped image with dimensionals on it. It is a very simple card and nothing too fancy.

On a Pedestal

Happy Tue! Today's share is a twist on using On A Pedestal stamp set.I personally didn't come up with the idea of using this set as a glass, when I saw it on different blogs and sites I had to try it out!

I used On A Pedestal item #113814, Circle Circus item #115778, and Teeny Tiny Wishes item #115370. This card was out of my comfort zone to say the least, I really struggle with using bolder colors I am more an Earth Elements type of gal. I colored the On A Pedestal Images with the incolor markers and green galore marker then stamped it on Whisper White card stock. I used the ticket punch on it and the Bermuda Bay behind it. I used the 2-way glue pen and add the dazzling diamonds to it. Then placed it on a piece of Brilliant Blue card stock. I cut a strip of Green Galore card stock and used the Scallop Edge punch on it, then using the paper piercing tool I punched holes through each scallop. I layered it on a piece of Brilliant Blue card stock and paper pierced holes along the top.

Next I tied some 1/2 polka-dot Crushed Curry ribbon around it. Then I took glue dots and dipped them in the Chunky Sprinkles and placed them along the edge. On the right hand side below the ribbon I stamped happy birthday from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set. Using the Circle Circus set I stamped the image randomly in Green Galore, Brilliant Blue, Crushed Curry and Bermuda Bay. Then used the ticket punch on the corners of all the layers before assembling it.

Its in the cards using Game Night

Morning! Well today's share is perfect and I have a good story to go with it in a min!

To make this card I used Game Night item # 113220 and the standard wheel In the Cards item #1138831. I used the Designer Series Paper Jackpot. When this first came out in the Stampin Up Catalog I had to have it all! You see my family is big on games! When we were little we would stay with Grandpa and Grandam and play cards all the time. Look out all of us grand kids are very good card sharks :) So I needed this set and the coordinating paper to scrapbook all those memories from the past and for those to come. Yesterday was a long day at my parents farm working afterwards my mom and I played cards were I promptly spanked her bad in cards :) Good daughter that I am I didn't rub it in too bad either :) She might disagree at this though.

I stamped the image from Game Night in Versa Mark and then embossed is with Black embossing powder on Very Vanilla card stock and then punched it out with the Large Oval Punch. Then I punched a piece of Real Red with the Scallop Oval Punch and a piece in Basic Black with the Wide Oval Punch and layered all 3 pieces together. I wheeled In the Cards standard wheel in Basic Black on Very Vanilla card stock and layered that on Basic Black and Real Red card stock. I paper pierced along the top and bottom of each layer. Then I wrapped 1/4 real red grosgrain ribbon around it. Then I cut a piece of the Designer Series Paper Jackpot punched 2 holes at the lower right hand corner and put 2 real red brads from the Bold Brights container. Then layered that on Basic Black and Real Red card stock.

Autumn Days

Hello and good morning!

Yesterday I got to play for a little while in my craft room! Here is what I came up with! I played around with Autumn Days Stamp Set! I really love this set and there was no doubt about me ordering this on the preview! lol Everyone will probably get sick of me using it after awhile!

I used Autumn Days item #115452 and Teeny Tiny Wishes item #115370. I used the Big Shot item #113439 along with the Texture Plate Kit #4 item #114531. I did the Rock n Roll Technique with the wheat you stamp your image in a light color mine was Crushed Curry and then you ink your stamp along the edges with a darker color mine was Dusty Durango.

I then used the ticket punch on the Whisper White, Dusty Durango, and Crushed Curry. I sponged the Whisper White card stock edges with Soft Suede. Next I stamped some images on the Soft Suede and then ran it through the Big shot with the Texture plate to make it look like bark. I wrapped 1/2 polka-dot Dusty Durango ribbon around and then taped it down to the old olive card stock. Then I set 3 gold eyelets off to the left and taped it to the Crushed Curry. I stamped Happy Thanksgiving from Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set and punched it out with the Word Window Punch, I sponged some Dusty Durango around it and placed it on the old olive piece that I punched out with the Modern Label Punch.
