Ink:  pacific point

You're Such an Amazing ...

You fill in the rest ... You're such an amazing "friend"!  What a nice way to tell someone what you think of them.  I'm sure anyone would love to hear what an amazing ... they are.  I could certainly have some fun with this card.

So what would you fill in if you had this card?  Let me know .. I'd love to hear.

Thanks for stopping by again, and I do hope you'll be back again tomorrow.  G'night!

Those Who Bring Sunshine ...

This is a card we made at Jill's Great Escape this past weekend.  I love this card and wanted to share it with you.  We had such a wonderful time this past weekend, and it was so nice to share ideas and lots of fun and laughter with a room full of creative women.  Here's the card we made ...

We used summer starfruit for the card, along with black, and the rays of sunshine are strips of patterned dsp in summer starfruit.  Cute, isn't it?  It was an easy card to make.  Try it, you'll see what I mean.

Until tomorrow, happy stamping!

Summer Silhouettes Birthday

This is a really sweet card that I actually didn't make, but my upline did.  It really like the summer silhouettes stamp set.  See what you think ...

I love the colors and simplicity of the card.  I just wanted to post it to share.  Hope you like it too.

See you back tomorrow ...

Coloring Down the Lines - Elegant Eggplant Duo

Welcome back to Coloring Down the Lines.  Did you just come from Carol's blog?  It's amazing what she can do with just two colors!  I find it a little challenging with two colors that are similar.  This week's color duo is Elegant Eggplant and Perfect Plum.  It took me a while to figure out what to do with those colors, but I came up with a card, and it didn't take too long.  Imagine that?  Here's my design...

Recipe:
Paper:  whisper white, elegant eggplant, subtles patterned dsp in perfect plum stripe
Ink:  perfect plum
Stamp Sets:  best of flowers, thank you kindly (retired)
Accessories:  pierced punch set, perfect plum 3/8" taffeta ribbon; basic pearls

I hope you like it.  Now, let's check out Joni's awesome design ... just can't wait to hop on over.  
Until tomorrow, thanks for stopping by.

Print Poetry Thank You

I just love the green, blue and yellow pattern in the print poetry dsp pack.  I had a few pieces cut from another card I recently made, so I thought I would use the rest of it up and make another card.  Here it is:

Card Recipe:
Paper:  very vanilla, midnight muse, gumball green, print poetry dsp
Ink:  midnight muse, gumball green
Stamp Set:  secret garden, teeny tiny wishes
Accessories:  elegant lines EF, secret garden framelits, basic pearls

My girlfriend wants to send a "thank you" card and she doesn't like anything really fancy, so I thought this might suffice.  We'll see when she sees it tomorrow, along with the other card I made earlier.  Either way, I like them both and I'll be happy to keep it!

See you tomorrow with another surprise.  Happy Tuesday!

Tea for Two, Thank You

Yesterday, I posted the "dress up" card for my friend Risa's daughter to send to her new friend in France, and today I'm sharing the card I made for the parents.  I like this card too, and I love the colors. I can't say where I get my inspiration from time to time, but I'm so glad I have some!

Recipe
Paper:  crumb cake, so saffron, pacific point, whisper white, tea for two dsp
Ink:  pacific point
Stamp set:  thank you
Accessories:  perfect dots EF, 5/8" flower trim,, tea lace paper doily, basic pearls

Do you like the card?  I like the colors, and for some reason, I'm really loving the "so saffron" color.  I hope to do more cards using it.

Until tomorrow, stamp happy!
