PP682 Hello Coffee

 



Playing with the A Little Latte suite for LeAnne's sketch challenge over at thepaperplayers.blogspot.com this week! I will be sending this out this weekend to my girl! I have an Espresso base and a layer of white cards tock then the A Little Latte DSP cut with the Perennial Postage dies. I cut a 3" square in Espresso card stock and added the four white squares cut with the Postage dies. I cut four different cups from the Latte Love dies in four colors of card stock plus the coffee in Espresso card stock to glue on top. The cups are Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Lemon Lolly, and Lost Lagoon. I stamped the sentiment in Espresso ink on a white Stylish Shapes banner die from the Warm Welcome stamp set. I finished it off with a Calypso Coral gem. 
Hope you have a lovely day and thanks for stopping by!

Happy Excellent Egg Easter!

 


One last cute Easter card! I used the Excellent Eggs set and dies along with the Lighter Than Air DSP. I have Fresh Freesia base and a later of white card stock than the DSP. I cut a Fresh Freesia egg with the dies and stamped another smaller one in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white card stock, cut it out and colored with my Stampin Blends markers in Fresh Freesia, Lemon Lolly, and Soft Sea Foam. I added some rhinestones on the egg for a little bling. I stamped the bunny in same black ink on white card stock and cut it out after coloring in SU500. I stamped the sentiment on a white die from the Everyday Details dies in Fresh Freesia ink. 
Hope you have a beautiful Easter this Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

Sending Sunshine

 


Had to make more than one card while playing around with the Beach Day bundle from the spring mini catty! I have a Azure Afternoon base and a layer of white card stock which I used a clear block D inked with Pool party and Crumb Cake inks and then spritzed with water then stamped on. I then stamped the lifeguard station plus the surf board and ball in Pecan Pie ink on a piece of white card stock. I colored them with inks and my water color brush and cut out with the Beach Day dies. I also cut out the tree in Pecan Pie and Garden Green card stocks. 
Hope you have a fun day and thanks for stopping by!

Beach Day

 


My first play with the Beach Day bundle in the spring mini catty! Thinking this will be one of my cards for classes in April.  I have a Azure Afternoon base and a piece of white card stock which I layered on after I added Pool Party and Crumb Cake inks with my blending brushes. They are darker in real life. I stamped the sand and castle plus the sentiment and birds on the background in Pecan pie ink. I then stamped with the same color the lifeguard stand, surf board and ball on white card stock and cut them out after coloring with my Stampin Blends markers. I also cut from the dies the grass and palms in Granny Apple Green card stock and the tree trunk in Pecan Pie. 
Hope you have a beautiful day and thanks for stopping by!

Easter Bunny Times Two

 











I made these Easter cards for my daughter and a friend and sent them out this week! I have a white base and I added a piece of Softly Stippled DSP which was part of the SAB freebies last month. You might not see the sheer Pool Party ribbon I added behind the circle but it gives more texture. I cut the white circle with the Everyday Details dies and added some Pool party ink on with my blending brush. I stamped the grass from the Easter Bunny set in Granny Apple Green ink and the butterfly in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and added a little yellow with my blend marker in Lemon Lolly. I then stamped the eggs and bunny on a piece of white card stock and hand snipped them out. I colored them with my Stampin Blends markers in SU500, light granny apple Green, light Lemon Lolly, light Pool Party, light Cajun Craze(for carrot) and light Bubble Bath. I added some Pool Party gems to finish it off. 
Hope you have a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping by!

PP681 Wishing You The Very Best

 



Today, I am playing along with Joanne's clean and simple good luck challenge over at thepaperplayers.blogspot.com this week. I pulled the sentiment Wishing You the Very Best from the Friends Are Like Seashells set for the good luck part and stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a strip of Fresh Freesia. I started with a piece of Fresh Freesia card stock scored as a Z fold base. I added the white piece of card stock inside. I then cut the two stitched dies with the Thoughtful Expressions dies and popped my images stamped with the matching stamp set in memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin Blends markers in dark and light Highland Heather, light Granny Apple Green, light Wild wheat and light Fresh Freesia then cut with the matching dies. I added some purple fine glimmer gems to finish off. 
Hope you have a beautiful day and go check out the challenge!
Thanks for stopping by!

Purple Zinnias

 


I am using the lovely Flowering Zinnias suite today but in my fav color-purple! I have a Gorgeous Grape base and a layer of the Flowering Zinnias DSP then a strip of Highland Heather card stock in the middle. I cut a white Perennial Postage die to stamp by image from the Simply Zinnias stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored with Highland Heather and Lemon Lime Twist blends. I did not add a sentiment so I could use for multi occasions. I finished off with some fine shimmer purple gems plus some Lemon Lime Twist ribbon. 
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!
