Sneek Peek

This is one of the new sets that you'll find in the Occasions mini catalog. This set is called Send Me Soaring. I thought I'd try something other than flowers and butterflies. I used Lucy Limeade and Elegant Eggplant cs and I used Limeade, Eggplant and Melon Mambo ink for the kites and Bashful Blue for the clouds. It's my first attempt with this set. I also used some of the new twine that's in the mini. It's the Lucky Limeade twine. Have a great day and Happy New Year!!

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day.

My First Swap Card

Happy Wednesday Ladies. This is my first swap card ever. I was really intimidated to do a swap, but I saw one for "newbies." I only had to make 10 so it wasn't too bad. I did a lot of punching for this one though. The colors look awful with my scanner, but I think it's a cute card. I used one of my new sets Pennant Parade and the punch.
Supplies: Pennant Parade ss; Chocolate Chip & Marina Mist cs and ink; Owl, Pennant, Word Window & Modern Label punches

Flower Card

Hello Ladies. This card happened by accident. Again I wanted to try and use the DSP Beyond the Garden and it wasn't working for me. I just stamped these images. I noticed that I glued the ribbon on the wrong end of the cs (it was supposed to be on the bottom). I do love the way it turned out. I just wish it showed up better because it looks better than the picture does. Have a great day & happy stamping!
Supplies: Fabulous Florets ss; Melon Mambo & Wild Wasabi cs; Pacific Point, Wild Wasabi, Daffodil Delight & Melon Mambo ink; Melon Mambo ribbon

Create

Happy Tuesday Ladies. I made this quick card with one of my new sets Creative Elements. I think this is gonna be one of my favorites. The colors don't look so good from my scanner today. I love the Marina Mist and Crumb Cake combo. Have a great day & happy stamping!
Supplies: Creative Elements ss; Marina Mist cs & ink, Marina Mist scalloped ribbon

Thinking of You

Happy Monday Ladies. I really like this set and LOVE this embossing folder. I tried to use some of the DSP (Beyond the Garden) with it, but just couldn't work it out. I don't like this DSP like I thought I would. Only a couple of sheets are useable to make card. The flowers are too big. Well anyways this is what I came up with. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day! Happy Stamping.
