Wedding card using Market Street Stamps

This is a card that I made for my cousin for her wedding. I used the Market street stamp set called Celebrate Cake.

I am also entering this for the Market Streets Stamps July Paint the Town Color Challenge. I always love their challenges, but I had not owned any Market street stamps so far. Now that I do, enjoying it a lot. The stamps stamp so well.

I used the eggplant cardbase and then used the red orange and blue in the main panel. I stamped the cake image using the new memento ink called Morocco. Love the new colors from Memento.


Thanks for stopping by.
Supplies:
Stamp - MSS Celebrate Cake

Texas Bluebonnets

Hello Friends, I am back to share a quick card with you. I made this for some friends of mine who are moving out of town. I used the blue bonnets from Deadbeat Designs and the Shoe is from Gina K Designs Out West Stamp set.

The sentiment stamp is from Hobby Lobby. I do not remember the manufacturer. I cut out the boots and propped them up with some foam dots to get some dimension. I also added some eyelets to keep the rustic look of the card. The blue ink that I used for the Bluebonnets is the new Memento ink called Teal Zeal. Just love the new Memento Ink release. Overall I loved how this card turned out.

Cas-ual Friday Challenge #60

Hello Friends, Hope you are having a good summer. I have not posted on my blog for a long time now. I do apologize for that. I have been creating quite a few projects, just have not gotten around to posting them.

I wanted to share this quick and simple card that I did for the Cas-ual Friday Challenge #60 - the challenge was to use text in your clean and simple creation. I was totally inspired by Julie Day's card that she did for this challenge.


Sorry for the blurry picture. I used the PTI Butterfly die and die cut the Raspberry Fizz card stock. Then I layered it with some text patterned paper from SU. A simple sentiment from PTI Birthday bash sentiments stamp set and some pearl embellishments completed the card. I like this idea of using the negative part of die cut sheet. I will for sure try another card with this technique.

Thanks for stopping by,.
Supplies:
Stamp - PTI Birthday Bash Sentiments
Ink - Memento Black
Paper - PTI Raspberry Fizz, White Card stock, SU Text patterned paper

June SFYTT - Thanks my Friend

I bought some Stamps of Life Stamps at Great American Scrapbook convention here in Arlington, TX. I love these stamps. So, I used one of the new stamp sets that I got - flowers2doodle for June's SFYTT. Also I was happy to see that I had gotten to June SFYTT much earlier than last month.

The flowers have two stamps, one solid and one outline so I did a two step stamping. I first stamped the solid flower using Memento Dandelion Ink and then one of the newer Memento ink Morocco. I did use their own die cuts for this flower. But loved how this flower turned out. In retrospect, it would have been nice to add a small bling or brad to the flower center.. Oh well - chance to do another card.

Here is a close up of the flower,

PTI Swap - Tags and Card

Hi All, Just a quick post to share some Birthday tags and card that I made for the PTI Swap hosted by Michele on SCS. If you like PTI Cards, then this is a good swap to join - very creative group. I am always excited to get my swap cards back.

This is the first time I am making a birthday tag or tag of any kind for the swaps. So, I was not getting good ideas. I hope the ladies on the swap like these tags. I used the Pretty Peonies (PTI Anniversary) Stamp set for the tag. I seem to be in a pink color phase.



This is the card that I did for Birthday Card Slot of the swap. I used the PTI Gracious vases stamp set for this card and paper pierced the vases.



My other two projects for this swap can be seen here - Pink Birthday card  and Thinking of you Card.
