Double it up



Greetings my dear friends and readers. Another beautiful day around here, but the temperatures drop substantially from what we enjoyed last week. It is going to go up, but we did not care much for the drop. Nonetheless, there are plenty of beauty around and colors and birds singing and all the wonderful and renewed life that Spring brings forth.


Today I got greed and made two cards using the color inspiration from Dostamper Stars 184. First I want a fun card with an all occasions feel to it. For that I used the Everything Eleanor at the top panel, which was heat embossed with the Melon Mambo Embossin' Powder and the same was done for the sentiment from Party Pants stamp set from Sale-A-Bration and the flowers from Crazy About You stamp set. I added a bit of flair to them using the Basic Black marker and I like the looks it gave. 




For this card I kept it formal, as it is to be given to a piano accompanist. Considering that she is not a very flowery person, I kept it as subtle as possible, but that piano required a bit of something. The tulips from the Basic Backyard made a perfect choice for the pop of color and I hand colored them with the Blender Pen.This is not a very difficult card, but the "keys" must all be adhered individually, which take a bit of time. The keys were cut using the Word Window. The Basic Gray panel is embossed using the Stylish Stripes, the sentiment is from Perfectly Penned, which I heat embossed in Black.  The panel for the top I hand cut. I made a template, well, sort of, and then cut the black panel. I thought it turned out very well considering the free hand on that. I love how this card turned out.

And this, my dear friends and readers, are my cards for today. I hope you have enjoyed them and that you will take a moment to share any thoughts you may have. I also ask that you visit the other Dostamper Stars to get more inspiration from this challenge.

Thank you for visiting today. Be well.

Just celebrate. Anything. Everything



I am relieved that finally my computer has come to terms and decide to be nice again. I almost canceled it's Christmas gift!

Let's then go back to normal posts and share some beautiful work. Thanksgiving was busy and we went to visit my in-laws in Indiana,leaving me little time to play in my craft room. Now, I am back and the Dostamper Stars challenge 159 has a wonderful color combination that was rather pleasing to the eye to work on. The Everything Eleanor stamp set gave me the center image, which I embellished with the Itty Bitty Accents punch pack.  As you know I have a crazy passion for ribbons, and this one in Mossy Meadow makes such a beautiful bow that I could not resist. The sides are adorned with Beach House washi tape, which is a nice discreet touch, and I add a center panel with a DSP. A card for any and all occasions, that is sure to please.

Thank you for visiting today and make sure to stop by again. You can also find more inspiration for today's challenge from others Dostamper Stars. Be well

A clean birthday.



Well, this is the first few days of November and just yesterday I was outside grilling some sausage for our lunch. I stayed outside, enjoyed some rays of sun in my skin, and I am positive this is the best November ever since moving to WI. Love this beautiful and warm weather.

Other than the weather trend, I am still working on Birthday cards. I know I think I have made about 50 of them this past month alone, but the more I make it, the more ideas I get.  Today's color inspiration is from the Dostamper Stars challenge 156. I kept the card very clean and simple, going for stamp images rather then DSP. The images are from Everything Eleanor, Awesomely Artistic, and also a retired favorite A Word for You. That wide ribbon in Cherry Cobbler is also retired, but a loved one.  I started the card by first stamping the Everything Eleanor image in Crumb Cake at the left side. I placed the ribbon to have an idea where I want it to run, then I stamped the ferns from Awesomely Artistic stamp set. I could add more ferns, but the truth is that I can get carried away, so I decided to stop while still ahead. The sentiment was selected last when I knew how much space I had left. Ah, the beauty and satisfaction of less when that is more.

Thank you for visiting today. More inspiration for this challenge by other Dostamper Stars. Be well

Sea Shells

PPA246


Happy Good Friday my dear friends. I hope that you are enjoying some time off today and get to spend it with loved ones and having plenty fun.

Or perhaps you are sitting on a beautiful beach enjoying a wonderful drink and the sunshine. Fun times at the beach calls for sea shells, and that's the theme I used for today's card and for the Pals Paper Arts challenge 246. The colors alone are the image of a beach to me, and I can almost smell the salty breeze. I combined the Everything Eleanor and the By the Sea Shore stamp sets for the looks of both combine is striking. A bit of Perfect Polka Dot texture and we got a card that is certain to please the beach lover in your life.

MM 353 - A Fitting Occasion



Another week coming to a close and this week I have my club night and also a baby shower. I love our club meet ups as we have plenty of fun and it is a nice relaxing time. Since I need a baby shower card, and my hostess also asked for one, I used the Mojo Monday sketch to put today's card together.

The little sentiment was all I wanted in the card. For me a Baby Shower is a moment to celebrate the new mother-to-be, so the card must have some sense of maturity to it. The A Fitting Occasion stamp set is a versatile set and have the perfect message I was looking for.

FMS 142 - Everything Eleanor


This simple card can deliver a heart warming Anniversary message. The stamp from Everything Eleanor is so beautiful, flowing, and gentle that it make me think of my husband.  The layout was inspired by this week's Freshly Made Sketches.

 

Tips and Tricks:
  • Everything Eleanor was stamped multiple times to make the background on the Old Olive.
  • The corners can easily be rounded using the Envelope Punch board. Love that!
Thanks for visiting today. Hope this project will give you inspiration to create something beautiful today.
