Another Card Set


Happy Friday Peeps!!!

Today I am sharing a set of four cards I whipped up yesterday.
I had no paticular reason in mind for these but once I made the first one the rest just called out to be made!




These two are the first ones I made, I had the idea to use the flower from the Remarkable You stamp set and the stem and leaves from the You've Got this stamp set and so that was my starting point.
I stamped a couple of the flower heads onto some Naturals Ivory card stock and water colored using Calypso Coral ink. The leaves are in Old Olive ink.

I then fussy cut both out and glued the flower head to the stem.


I knew I wanted to make a square card so I cut another piece of the ivory card stock to mount the flowers on.


The DSP I used on both sets are from the Pretty Petals stack.
The sentiments are from the Endless Thanks, the Petite Pairs set and the Endless Birthday set.




These two are made using the Crazy About You Stamp set.

I stamped the flower three times, for each card, with Calypso Coral so I could cut them out and layer up, The leaves are stamped with Old Olive.



I fussy cut it all out and layered up the flowers with dimensionals between the layers.
The flower is glued directly to the ivory square


I tucked the leaves under the flowers and glued. 
I stamped all the sentiments using Black Memento ink.
The only embellishment on these are a candy dot in Calypso in the middle of the flowers.


I even tried my hand at making my own envelope. I used some retired DSP and the envelope punch board. So fun!

Sweet Sunday......thanks


Happy Sunday Peeps!!

Here is the sweet sketch we have for you this week:




I pulled out my Stampin Up Remarkable You stamp set.
Love the flowers in this set and I stamped two of the three flowers onto some white card stock, stamping one of them twice. I stamped the leaf branch a couple of times as well. I used Black Stazon so I could water color my images.
I used Pumpkin Pie, Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight for the flowers and Old Olive for the leaves.
I fussy cut them out and set aside.




The base of the card is white followed by a piece of basic black and then another white that I emboseed with the Decorative Dots EF.
I die cut a circle and added it to the base and then proceeded to build my flower arrangement.
I used dimensionals to add the flowers.
I cut apart the leaves and tucked them in and around the flowers.
The sentiment is from the Fabulous Four stamp set. I masked off the portion I wanted to use and stamped onto some black card stock with Versamark
I then embossed with my white embossing powder.
I cut the v's in the ends and added it to the card using some dimensionals.
I finished up with a few sequins from the Brights sequin assortment pack.
Now be sure and hop over to the Sweet Sunday Blog to see what the rest of the girls did with this great sketch!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Happy Friday Peeps!!

Popping in here quickly with a card I made using the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches:


I just got my first order of new goodies from the new Stampin Up catalog and was excited to play with some of them,
The flower on here is from the Remarkable You stamp set, Love the images in this set!

I stamped and colored the flower and leaves using my aqua painter.
I used Calypso Coral and Old Olive ink.


The DSP is from the Painted Petals stack. the sentiment and squiggle lines are from the Tin of Cards stamp set, this set is awesome, I love the fonts and the other fun elements.
I stamped the sentiment directly onto the DSP as well as the squiggly lines.
Finished up with a few rhinestones,
