Petal Textures

I utilized 3 different stamp sets on this card.
'Wonderful Moments' for the sentiment.
'Peaceful Petals' for the main flower.
'Artisan Textures' for the background piece.

I colored in the image using Stampin' Blends markers. The petals have Cherry Cobbler and Pink Pirouette, while the stem is Mossy Meadow.

For the frame, I used the Curvy Corner Trio Punch.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Fall Pairings

I saw these colors together on Pinterest and just had to use them on this Fall birthday card. I LOVE Fall colors! Such a lovely time with all the changing leaves and cooler weather too.

I wanted to create a masculine card, as this is for my Uncle. I thought to dress up the rectangular piece with the Curvy Corner Trio Punch.

Money Diploma

When I saw Cassandra's card on Pinterest.... what a cute idea to use money as the "1" in the year! Thanks Cassandra for your inspiration!

Now, I chose to use a one dollar bill.... as it says "1" on it, and I aligned it so you can see the one.  I'm sure any denomination would work though. =)

Garden Wonder

Happy Mother's Day!  My Mom passed away 2 years ago, and she loved roses. In memory of her -- and for "other" Mom's in my life (my Husband's Mom, my Godmother, my Grandma and Mike's second Mom) these are for you!

I used the Rose Garden Thinlits to cut out the black rose outline in the center of the black cardstock. I had a bit of trouble running the thinlit through my Big Shot...as it didn't cut parts of the paper. I used the Precision Plate the second time around.... and that helped some, but it still wasn't cutting all of it. So, I finally placed another sheet of paper (shim) on top of the die...and it cut just fine from there on out. Third time was the charm! ;)

Behind the cut out flower I used different papers from the Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-Bration (SAB) Catalog.

Every Garden

Such a cute flower in the Rose Garden Thinlits... I just had to create a card using just this flower for my niece. I kinda wish it had a full flower to go underneath the thinlet, but maybe I can fussy cut one on a later card. (something to try!).

Thanks for taking a peek!

Best of Spring

I saw a similar card (in blue) that used white embossing on a light blue cardstock and watercoloring in dark blue.  I wanted to try to create one using pink.

I stamped the image with Versamark and used White Embossing powder on Pink Pirouette cardstock.

I then used my Aqua Painter to watercolor the leaves (Old Olive) and flower (Melon Mambo).

I got the chance to use my Curvy Corner Trio Punch for the first time -- makes for a more feminine card.

Thanks for looking!

Ink - Versamark, Old Olive, Melon Mambo
Paper - Pink Pirouette, Old Olive, Melon Mambo
