My base is Old Olive card stock. I cut a piece of Real Red and Tangerine Tango card stock. I ran the Tangerine Tango card stock through the Big Shot with the Argyle Embossing Folder. I then used the 3/16 Corner Punch to round the corners on the left side of the Tangerine Tango card stock. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock. I took the stamps from Mixed Bunch Stamp Set; inked them in Daffodil Delight, and Old Olive. I stamped the flowers onto the Whisper White card stock. I glued the Whisper White card stock to the left side of the Tangerine Tango card stock. I then cut 2 different patterns of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper and glued them onto the Whisper White card stock. I wrapped a piece of 1/2 Scallop Dots Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon around the Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper. I used the side of the ribbon without the dots. I then wrapped some White Baker's Twine around the 1/2 Scallop Dots Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon. I attached all the layers to the front of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals. I punched a piece of Whisper White card stock out with the Decorative Label Punch. I took the stamp from Petite Pairs Stamp Set; inked in Tangerine Tango and stamped onto the center of the Whisper White card stock. I took the stamp from Mixed Bunch Stamp Set; inked in Daffodil Delight and stamped onto the label around the edges. I attached to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals then added a Brights Designer Button with White Baker's Twine. I then added some Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the flowers.

My base is a 6 x 6 piece of Lucky Limeade card stock. I then cut a piece of Melon Mambo card stock. I cut a piece of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper and glued it to the left side of the Melon Mambo card stock. I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock and glued it to the page. I took the stamp from Summer Silhouettes Stamp Set; inked in Lucky Limeade and stamped onto Lucky Limeade card stock. I then used the 1 3/4" Circle Punch to punch out the stamped background. I used the 1 3/8 Circle Punch to punch out 2 circles in Melon Mambo card stock. I then ran them through the Big Shot with the Fancy Fan Embossing Folder. I glued the circles to the Whisper White card stock on the left side alternating them to create a fun border!

Tip~ Use circle punches to create a fun border on your layout. Dress them up by stamping on them or adding texture to them.

I cut a piece of Wisteria Wonder card stock and then punched one side with the Scallop Trim Border Punch. I glued that onto the circles. I cut another piece of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper and glued that over lapping the punched Wisteria Wonder card stock.

Tip~ Balance out bright colors by adding the same pattern of Designer Series Paper onto the opposite side of the page.

I then wrapped some Lucky Limeade's Baker Twine around the layers of paper on the left side. I took the stamps from Raining Flowers Stamp Set; inked them in Wisteria Wonder and Daffodil Delight. I stamped onto some Whisper White card stock then cut out the flowers and attached them with Stampin' Dimensionals. In the center I added some Jewels Basic Rhinestones.

Supplies Used~
Stamps~ Raining Flowers, Summer Silhouettes
Ink~ Lucky Limeade, Wisteria Wonder, Daffodil Delight

I feel really bad for those people. Yesterday afternoon the wind changed and the smoke was so bad here for awhile we thought the fire had changed directions. Of course were we live there is quiet a few state forests around us. I myself have been fortunate to never experience anything like that before gotta say it was a little nerve racking and kind freaked my hubby and I out.
