Fancy, fancy



Last day of 2015 and I hope you have amassed a large amount of wonderful memories this year. Better yet, I hope you continue to do so for many years to come.

One of the biggest memories in a person's life is their wedding day. I am sure someone will be getting married on the last day of the year and I made this card, which is for the Dostamper Stars challenge 162, with that in mind. The colors are perfect for a formal and memorable party, and how can one go wrong with the new Bloomin' Heart thinlits? This is absolutely gorgeous and I know it will get mileage with me. The sentiment is also new, from the Rose Wonder stamp set and I heat embossed it in black. I cut it with the Circle Card Thinlits, which was a perfect fit. The small flowers are part of the Bloomin' Hearts thinlits and a perfect fit, of course. The background is from the Fancy Foil Designer Vellum.  A bit of bling to bring it all home

Thank you for visiting today. Take a moment to visit the other Dostamper Stars to get even more inspiration. Be well

A Jubilee celebration.

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgesGk4MYXTTBVjsAeZVO_ohXiR-x8oxR0IgVZtWCkM5h7Di2hIiG1YVA4hk4XvHWou26e2Wz93byxRgCQALyPlgnKcnjvbhyyAhSyN-UjQylT8dGPcDSCVTctf_76e0Yw_PK70AwNJZLr2/s1600/Mojo421.gif

Celebrations vary so widely, that I doubt that I will every grow tired of hearing about them. Last week, I was approached to prepare a card for a Jubilee of a nun. She has been a nun for 75 years and I was told the story of her life. A celebration it will be indeed.

Since I was just introduced to Jubilee, I went on searching and found that it is platinum. I do not have a platinum paper or materials readily, but I saw that the Brushed Silver card stock was a good match. The sketch from Mojo Monday 421 worked well for what I had in mind, although I did change the sketch a bit. A bit of heat embossing was applied to the bottom portion of the card. I used the Flowering Flourishes stamp set. I aimed at keeping the card simple, but I also want some details. A bit of Glimmer paper in silver for the numbers and also for the layer behind the black circle added a bit of pizzazz without being too much. The corners were adorned with the Curvy Corner Punch and I honestly cannot see anyone not adding this punch to their collection. The ribbon and perfect bow completed the looks of this card. I can hardly wait to hear if the nun liked her card.

Thank you so much for visiting today. Be well

A Toast!



June is wedding month, or so it appears in the northern states. I can see why, and I, myself, am guilty as charged. I like to work on wedding cards, but often I run out of ideas. I want to prepare elaborate cards and all, but simplicity always wins over.

Look at this card as an example? It is very simple in itself, in its design, and final results. Yet I truly like the simplicity of it. The sketch if form the Freshly Made Sketches 189; both the image and sentiment are heat embossed in white powder for an extra touch of elegance. Both are from the Love & Laughter stamp set as well as the flowers on the corners of the card. The Brushed Silver cardstock is wonderful to work with; whether you are using a punch, a embossing folder, a heat embossing, it takes it all. Love the effect the White Embossing powder had on it. A bit of Silver Glimmer paper and the card is sure to be appreciated by the beautiful bride.
Thank you for visiting today and please do come back again.

A Festive Thank You.



I spent my afternoon with a dear friend and her children today. We had lunch together, wrapped gifts, chatted away, and I even went home with dinner. I enjoy her a lot and truly appreciate her friendship.

Then, I got home and was commissioned to prepare a Thank you card. The lady whom order the card is my daughter's violin instructor's mother and she told me the story behind the recipient of the card. I certainly got plenty inspiration today, then I saw the Mojo Monday challenge 377 and the card just blossomed in my mind.
