Amazing You & Last Days of Sale-a-bration

Recently I was visiting my mom and noticed this beautiful card she made.  I think it's pretty much the way she made it.  I didn't think to ask where she got the idea, and she is always looking for ideas.  For about 10 years my mom has been doing a card class every week at one of her local retirement homes.  With 10-15 people at each class she makes a lot of cards! 


Using a Blushing Bride panel I embossed using the floral folder from Petal Pair Embossing Folder.  I cut a scalloped circle using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies on Basic Black card stock, and a Whisper White circle using the Stitched Shapes Framelits.  I also cut the word "amazing" from Basic Black card stock using the Celebrate You Thinlits Dies.  These dies are a FREE Sale-a-bration choice with a product purchase of $100.  


The stamped images are from the Sale-a-bration set Amazing You which is available for FREE with a $50 product purchase. I stamped the flower on the Whisper White circle using Basic Black.  I colored it a bit with the Blushing Bride Stampin' Write Marker.  But you could add color with an Aqua Painter or a Blender Pen. I stamped the words "you" and "are simply" in Basic Black as well. The circles are mounted using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Happy Easter

Where did the time go?  I've been MIA -- I hope you missed me!

I made these Easter cards for my grandsons.  They were fun to make and came together quickly.  I realized that I had not ordered the Hello Easter set that I'd planned to use so I had to pull out a retired set to find a bunny.  How is that possible?  I love bunnies and rabbits!


I used the Happy Celebrations stamp set.  The "splat" was stamped on a Whisper White panel with Pear Pizzaz then, masking the "A" in the word happy, I used Flirty Flamingo to stamp the word. The bunnies (from the retired set Ears to You) were also stamped with Flirty Flamingo but on a scrap piece of Whisper White.  I fussy cut the bunnies and used Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere them in place of the "A".  The word Easter was created with the Labeler Alphabet set and stamped in Archival Black.



I mounted the white panel to a Flirty Flamingo panel which I mounted onto some retired designer series paper.  The card base is Whisper White.


I think this card will look great in whatever color combo you would like.
