Simple Need for Speed

I have another card I made when I went to Georgia.  This one is super simple and the design can be used for just about any image.  KISS--Keep it Simple, Silly (or whatever "S" word you'd like to use, lol!).

I'll probably add a "happy birthday" sentiment to this.  Most of these cards I'm going to sell at work to raise money for the American Cancer Society Relay for Life that takes place in June. 

Card Details:

Stamp Set:  Need for Speed

Ink:  Black Stazon

Card Stock:  Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Well Worn DSP

Up in the Air

Did you think I was going to be gone for another 3 months?  Nope!  Still have some cards to share, but I was in Vegas for a conference (yeah, life is rough, lol) so that's why I didn't post for a few days.

My card today uses the Occasions Mini stamp set, Up in the Air.  My challenge to myself when making this card was to use the more masculine Well Worn DSP and create a feminine card.  I think it works and hope you do too!

When I inked up the stamp, I was carefule and inked the flowers only with Black Stazon and the butterflies and sentiment with Not Quite Navy.  It's easier to use markers, but I didn't pack those when i went to Atlanta.

Card Details:

Stamp Set:  Up in the Air

Ink:  Black Stazon, Not Quite Navy, Cajun Craze, Old Olive

Card Stock:  Very Vanilla, Not Quite Navy, Well Worn DSP

Accessories:  Blender Pens

Clean and Simple Fabulous Florets

Good Morning!  As I've mentioned, the last couple of days I've been with a group of stamping friends.  We rented a house just outside of Atlanta, Georgia.  Here's a photo of the group.

From the top, we have Chera, Lisa, Heather, Jeannette, Kim, me and MaryJo.  I'm always glad to get back home to my boys, but we had a GREAT time!  And...I even got a lot of cards made.  I'll share all of them through out the week.

Today's card follows the sketch on Clean and Simple.  Here's the sketch:

I made two of the same card for the sketch.  The only difference is that the card on the left has sponging on the cut out flowers--it's not real visible in the photo.

Card Details:

Stamp Set:  Fabulous Florets, Rue des Fleures (thanks)

Ink:  Black Stazon, Old Olive, Poppy Parade

Card Stock:  Whisper White, Poppy Parade, Basic Black

Accessories:  Stampin' Dimensionals, Sponge Dauber

Something New--Quilling

Good morning.  I tried something new this weekend--quilling.  I went on Splitcoast and found a card by Mary Fish that was my inspiration.  I need more practice, but I think I'm going to like quilling.  Let me know what you think!

My circles are quilled with Paisley Petals DSP.  I added a Basic Pearl to the middle of each circle.  The leaves are punched with the Bird Punch and Paisley Petals DSP.  The ribbon can be yours FREE with a $50 order--it's one of the Sale a Bration items.

I'm still with  my stamping friends so the mojo is still working.  Be sure to check back again tomorrow to see what I have to share!

The Sounding Joy

Today I'm sharing the last card we made at the library class.  This one is super simple and quick.  If you have a lot of people on your Christmas card list, a card like this would be perfect for you. 

You can see it's a "gate fold" card.  On the inside we stamped the other sentiment from The Sounding Joy.  The Silver Glimmer paper makes this card sparkle and I love it with Real Red.  The Sounding Joy and Silver Glimmer paper are found in the Holiday Mini.

If you would like to make this card for Christmas, I can help you order the correct amount of supplies for the number of cards you need to make.  Plus, with your order, I will give you the exact dimensions for all of the card stock pieces.  Email me at [email protected].
