Sending You A Huge

Hello all!!! It's been a busy day for me today. Just wanted to pop in and share some great news with you... A very talented friend of mine is starting a new venture and creating her very own line of stamps. So, stop by and check it out here.

Now onto the card for the day...

This color combo of Berry Sorbet, Lemon Tart, Kraft and White just seem so creamy and yummy to me. What do you think of it? The flourish, from Turning A New Leaf, is stamped twice in brown onto yellow cardstock, rounded the corners and layered over a white block with dimensional adhesive.

Isn't that sentiment just the cutest little phrase? The main part of the sentiment (from Big & Bold Wishes) was stamped onto berry sorbet cardstock, the rest of the sentiment was stamped onto a small white cardstock strip and attach with dimensional adhesive. Finished the card off with two berry sorbet ribbon tabs (one twill and the other grosgrain) and some super cute buttons.

I will try to have the CHA Super Show pictures for you tomorrow. I hope you all are having a great week!

Hey There Friends

Hello there! I got a chance to play with my new Hero Arts Starburst Lace stamp and it's wonderful...Stamped the lace image in summer sunrise and combined it with a sentiment, from Big & Bold Wishes, stamped in raspberry fizz. Looped twill ribbon to make a bow, tied it to a button with floss and attached to the center of the starburst.

Punched a scalloped border from raspberry cardstock and coated it with glitter. A little tip: The card base was trimed down to 4" X 5 1/2" so that, when the scalloped border was added to the edge, the card would still fit into a normal A2 envelope.

Thanks for dropping by! Have a great day!

Mr & Mrs

Hello all! So I am really struggling today, I feel like my creative juices have left me! I've been creating all week (stuff I am unable to share), but when it came to creating today's card nothing seemed to be right. This happens to me often, I go through phases of creativity and phases of no creativity. Do you guys have this problem too? Or am I the only one?! The original plan was to incorporate yellow (for Dawn's color challenge), but I just couldn't get it to work. Not that it really mattered, I've already missed the dead line anyways (bummer!).


The card base is rustic cream stamped with a flourish, from Turning A New Leaf, in aqua. The brown strip was stamped with an image from Background Basics: Diamonds.

The sentiment is from Big & Bold Wishes, stamped in brown and aqua. Then embellished the card with touches of glitter.

So what do you think of the card? Is it too simple? Anyways, so glad you all took the time to visit today, hope you have a wonderful day!
