Elementary Elegance

This is probably my favorite set out of the sale-a-bration catalog.  If you want to know how you can get it for FREE just let me know.  Sale-a-Bration only runs through the end of March.

The card base was embossed using the dots embossing folder.  The paper is from the new Occassions Mini Attic Boutique collection.  The focal image was stamped in Versamark in and embossed with white embossing powder.  The curly label punch fits perfectly in the center of the image and can be punched out to add a sentiment on a layer underneath.

This card was fast and super simple to do.  If you have any questions, pleae let me know!  Happy Stamping!!

St. Patrick's Day Card

My monthly stamp group will be getting together in the next couple of weeks and while I had some free time this weekend, I decided to go ahead and work on my swaps.

I used some products that I've had for a while but haven't used yet.  I started out with a Wild Wasabi card base and added a layer of Very Vanillia.  I used the distressed dots background stamp with Wild Wasabi ink.

I then pulled out my big shot and used the Tasteful Trims Bigz XL die and cut the jumbo ric-rack from that. I used a sale-a-bration set from last year for the little four leaf clover.  I then used the Wild Wasabi embossing powder and heat set it for a little added texture.

I stamped the label using the Four Frames stamp set in Wild Wasabi ink and finished it off with a greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes. *I just love that set*  I used some of the new organza ribbon from the sale-a-bration catalog to finish it off.

If you have any questions, please let me know!!  Happy Stamping!!!

Elegant Birthday

My mother's birthday was this past weekend so of course I had to make a card for her.  I've been watching Krsitina Werner's 25 days of Christmas videos the last few weeks and she made a card that was this same size.  It looked so nice that I thought that I would give it a try.

The card measures 9" X 7" and is scored in half.  It will fit in a business size envelope.  For all the supplies, check the list below.  I embossed the pink pennants and the damask background with clear embossing powder and I love the way they turned out.  If you have any questions, please let me know!  Thanks for looking!
