Bliss


Ok no more sadness, only "BLISS" This is such a beautiful stamp set. For the stamped flowers and butterflies, if you can see, I have stamped them in two colors. To achieve this look you stamp the light color first - in this case Peach Parfait and then you roll the edges in the darker color, in this case Poppy Parade. I think this is a cool effect.
Supplies: Card Stock: Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, and Whisper White. Ink: Peach Parfait and Poppy Parade. Stamp Set: Bliss. Embossing Folders: Framed Tulips, and Square Lattice.

There is only two days left to purchase Retired Products. I will be placing an order for these products on June 30th. If you want anything please send me an email – with your credit card number and I will include it on my order.. This will keep all of the shipping down for everyone.
This is also only two days before I get my ……. Wait for it……… “BIG SHOT” I can hardly wait. I will also get the new catalogues, that is really exciting.

I hope to hear from you soon
You all have a Wonderful Day!

Friday!

I am so glad that it is Friday.
Today's card is one of two sympathy cards that I have to make. Unfortunately I do not have a "With Sympathy" stamp, because I know that Tator ate that one.
I hope you like this simple card. I may change up the thread that I have in the button. I think it should be black, what do you think?

Supplies: Card Stock: Whisper White, Basic Black Ink: Stazon Black. DSP Neutrals Collection.

This card was cased from Darlene  http://dreamingaboutrubberstamps.com/just-believe-in-black-and-white

1st post ever!

Hello stampers
I am starting my Blog today with my first card! How exciting is that? I hope that I do not let you down.
We made this card this past weekend, at my stamp -a - stack class.
This card is using the reverse embossing technique. I used some ribbon that I had purchased off of the Clearance rack on  Stampin Up website. The flower and vines are from the stamp set "Vintage Vouge" The sentiment is from "Afterthoughts" a Hostess Level one stamp set from the 2010 - 2011 Idea Book & Catalogue (which you only have 9 days left to order from).

To purchase any Stampin Up Products, go to http://stampthemoment.stampinup.net/ click on the "Shop Now" button, where you can take advantage of amazing prices in the clearance rack. Or click on Last Chance and get that stamp set, or 1 1/4" striped ribbon that you wanted before it is gone.    
Supplies: Card Stock: Very Vanilla Ink: Soft Suede, Crumb Cake - Versamark with clear embossing powder.  Today's card was cased from a talented lady "Shannon" here is a link to her card http://stampingqueens.blogspot.com/2010/01/vintage-suede.html
