Totally Wonderful

I thought Fiona's card was so cute using DSP for the grass for a new home. I chose to use the flower design (Old Olive).

I stamped the tree (Totally Trees) with Chocolate Chip ink, then colored in the leaves with the AquaPainter in Old Olive. The Chocolate Chip did bleed some, but not enough that it looks bad. (Kinda wish I had memento ink in brown)

I cut the "grass" using the Circles Collection Framelits... the last circle has the scallops. I stamped the house in Memento ink and cut the piece out using scissors... I did the same with the tiny heart too!

I adhered the house to the grass with dimensionals to make the image pop-up.

Thanks for taking a peek!

Wonderful Day

Here is the card I created for my sister and her family -- who just moved into their new home in Colorado! I have to say, this is not my own creation.  When I saw Heather Klump's card, I just new I had to CASE it.  Thanks Heather for your wonderful creation!

Here is her card:

Now that I see her card again... I notice that her houses do not go off the edge.  Hmm... does mine look bad with that one house being cut off.  Maybe I should add another house to the right side. Hmm... decisions, decisions.

I know my sister will love the card! So excited for her and her family to start a new chapter in their lives.

Thanks for taking a look!

Simple Border

Hi there! Working on a few Thank You cards today, and decided to use a few of the new stamp sets that I purchased along with some new washi tape too. I'm really liking the washi tape... why didn't I jump on this when they first came out?

I used the 'Sweet Dreams' washi tape -- not sure what colors are in the set, so I paired this particular tape closely with Bermuda Bay cardstock. Close enough! LOL!  Oh darn it... I just figured what the colors are with this set... this tape is Lost Lagoon! I'll remember for next time I use it! haha

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets - Simply Wonderful, Borderettes
