Bits and Pieces

When you punch flowers with the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer punch you end up with unused bits and pieces of flowers. Well I couldn't let these go to waste so I made this card to use some up. It's a pretty straight forward CAS card :-)

Bold Blossom

My daughter makes amazing clean and simple cards. I love her style and used one of her layouts as a starter for this card. Check her card out here.   I changed my card a bit due to the size of the Bold Blossom flower.   The punched out flower is popped up on dimensionals and the oval panel is also on dimensionals.  I cut out tags in Cherry Cobbler and Not Quite Navy to tie the color scheme together and added a linen thread bow. I hope you like my version :-)

Plane & Simple

This is my first use of the Plane & Simple set and since Father's Day is coming up it worked out perfectly. I started with the layout for this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge but ended up turning the main panel slightly. I used the Lattice embossing folder on the left panel. I used the mat pack to line up the brads but the holes in the mat pack are crooked so guess what, my brads are crooked. Grrhh!! The plane is up on dimensionals and the panel that the plane sits is on is also on dimensionals. Have a great day!

The Open Sea

Well I'm here in Utah and I brought what stamping supplies I could cram into my rolling bag. I got my order from the Summer Mini just before leaving so of course that came with me. I decided to make a card for this week's Clean and Simple challenge.   I must say that I am really frustrated with the color in the photo.  The Not Quite Navy looks more like blue.  Does anyone else have this trouble?  I have a Canon camera.  Do other brands have more true color?  I guess I need to research this. Anyway, here is my card.

FTL141





The card is pretty straight forward. I stamped the ship, cut it out, attached it to the NQN circle and then popped that up on a dimensional. The sentiment is also on a dimensional.

New Blossom Tripple Layer Punch & Bold Blossom

Well I've been missing for a couple weeks because my husband and I drove across country from Washington (state) to Atlanta to visit my daughter and her husband.  I think I'm in stamping withdrawal and we're leaving again in 2 days for a 2 week trip.  I'm going to try to take stamping supplies with me on this trip but how do I pick what to take with me.  Quite the conundrum!

I just received new stuff from the Summer mini so had to get a quick card in before leaving.


I played around with the new triple layer punch and ended up with the outer layer punch from Real Red Print DP, the middle layer Real Red and the top layer Regal Rose.   The close up is a little blurry (never try to take pictures when you're in a hurry. The camera knows!)  There is a dimensional between the Real Red print layer and the Real Red/Regal Rose layer.  The rest of the card is pretty straight forward.  

Stamps: Bold Blossom
Paper: Real Red, Regal Rose, Real Red Print DP, Whisper White
Ink: Old Olive
Accessories: Blossom Bouquet triple layer punch, stick on pearl, Real Red 5/8" grosgrain ribbon, dimensionals
