You're Too Kind

Today is one of those really quiet peaceful days. Why you might ask? The kids have their first day of school today, lol. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids, I would die for my kids but once they reach a certain age they seem to need the structure that school gives them. We spent 5 days camping over the long weekend. It was so nice just to get away for a little bit and have one last hurrah before Fall arrives and judging by the chill in the air, it's around the corner!

Today's card is another case from Theresa Momber, I really liked the vivid colours of this and so I kept the colours similar. First I stamped the rose from Fifth Avenue Floral with versamark and then embossed with clear embossing powder. I sponged Daffodil Delight and Peach Parade all over, then I added Riding Hood Red to just a few spots. The Flowers are stamped on water colour paper and I once again used all three colours to colour the image. I will be adding Crystal Effects to the centers of the flowers to finish it off.

Stamps: Fifth Avenue Floral, SAB set
Paper: More Mustard, Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Watercolour
Ink: Daffodil Delight, Peach Parfait, Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, Versamark
Other: Black Ribbon, Brads

Because I Care

Image
We are having such a beautiful day today, warm sunshine with a slight breeze, does it get any better?! Well, yes it does because I got a little more stamping in with some of the new stuff from the new catalogue. I'd be lying to you if I didn't say I love this card. Love how the new Cherry Cobbler looks combined with Crumb Cake (formerly known as Kraft) and black. I'm also so excited to finally have ink in the Kraft colour, oops, Crumb Cake. This stamp set is one of the new Hostess level 1 sets, isn't it gorgeous! And you want to know the best part? This set will be one of many door prizes at my grand Catalogue Kick off Party!!! Yup, you read that right. Anyone that attends my party on July 12th is entered to win this stamp set. I'm so excited I can hardly wait! But on to the card, lol. I cut out a mask for the rectangle in the middle, I then used a sponge with the Crumb cake ink and kept sponging until I was happy with it. The flower was stamped on another piece of ...

Bling Mania

Image
My garden is loving the rain right now and I am loving the smell of rain. The kids have resorted to using all of our dining room chairs, the living room furniture, and their blankets to make a tent just in case the rain turns into a "bad storm". Now we'll wait and see how good they are at cleaning up once they're done, lol. I wish the lighting in the house had been better when I took this picture, it really doesn't show just how bright and fun this new Poppy Parade colour is! It's quickly becoming one of my favourites of the new In Colors. I stamped the image on watercolour pp and used my blender pens to colour the flower and leaves. Then I carefully cut out the flower so I could mount it on the circle. You can't see it in the picture but I sponged some Old Olive lightly on the Very Vanilla circle. The circle is mounted with dimensionals and the sentiment is slightly curled. To finish it off I added bling until I was happy, hehe. Diamonds are a girl's ...
