Stampin’ Up! Dashing Along

Stampin’ Up! Dashing Along

Welcome!

Here it is Friday and it’s off to the Old Timer’s Bluegrass Festival in Townsend, TN.  Have you ever been to Cade’s Cove, if not it is a great visit.  My husband loves Bluegrass and I love him, so there we go.  I am more Andre Rieu (especially when he plays “My Way” the audience will be crying) that is world’s apart.  The things we do for love. 

 My card today is created using the Dashing Along DSP and the Wood Texture DSP.

The design comes from the challenge  Freshly Made Sketches.

No inside sentiment as yet.  

Have a great week-end!  Hope you find encouragement and inspiration for your creation.

Stampin’ Up! Around The Corner with Sheltering Tree

Stampin’ Up! Around The Corner with Sheltering Tree

How  that for a title “Around the Corner with Sheltering Tree?  The next few days we  will be enjoying or maybe I should say my husband and BIL will be enjoying the music of the Old  Timers’ Bluegrass Festival in Townsend, TN.  This is a twice a year trip May and September. 

         

The card for today is from the Around the Corner, Sheltering Tree and Postcard Pals stamp sets.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inspiration and design come from several challenges that are happening.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

This card is CAS(E)d from one seen on Pinterest. It wasn’t saved to a board, so the name of the person who created it, I can’t name.  If someone out there has seen the card and saved it please let me know the name of the person so credit can be given.   I found the card awesomely beautiful and wanted to make one.  It looked so clean and simple.  

Two cards  were really made.  Can you pick out the difference that was created to cover up forgetting to take the stamp off the Stamparatus when I went to  stamp the next part of the card.

The card base is Basic Black cardstock for one and Pumpkin Pie for the other.  A mask was made using removable label paper and the Clearance Rack Leaflet Framelits Dies. it was attached to the 3-3/4″ x 5″ Whisper White art piece.   Pumpkin Pie and Crumb Cake were used to make the big leaf background.  After the background leaf was finished, the masking was removed an attached to a piece of wax paper to be used another day.

Using the tree stamp from the Sheltering Tree stamp set the tree was stamped in Memento Black Ink in the center of the leaf.

The greeting from Around the Corner stamp set was stamped on the lower left corner using Memento Black Ink also.  The Whisper White art panel is adhered to the Basic Black mat using Liquid Glue and then popped on the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The inside sentiment is stamped using Memento Black ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock from the stamp set Postcard Pals. The Whisper White sentiment panel is adhered to a Basic Black mat  and this is adhered to the  inside of the card.  

Thanks  for stopping by today.  I hope you found inspiration and encouragement for whatever your may create.

Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods

Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods

Happy Hawmp Day, y’all!  This is a quote from Mary Deatherage.  Love how she is always  so happy and encouraging and a delight to listen to on her videos. Better than watching NCIS and I love NCIS, my only show to watch and much more cheerful than Gibbs. She is always giving us cheery quotes and encouragements along the way as she does her blog.  So Happy Hawmp Day, ya’ll! She must be from the South.

The card  is created using the Winter Woods stamp set along with the Nature Sings stamp set.  Night of Navy is used as the mat and Thick Whisper White as the base.  The Night of Navy mat has been embossed using the Tin Tile  DTIEF.  The tree is cut using the In The Woods Framelits Dies.

The design and inspiration comes from the Paper Players  Sketch Challenge PP411.  You can click on the link to check out all the beautiful cards entered in this challenge.

This is an easy card to make.  The  White 1/8″ ribbon is adhered with glue dots on the back of the card.  The ribbon give the design to the card that is requested in the challenge.

The inside sentiment is from the Nature Sings stamp set stamped on Whisper White card stock and adhered to a Night of Navy mat using Liquid Glue.  The three trees are from the Nature Sings stamp set also and is stamped in Night of Navy ink.

 

Thanks  for stopping by today.  I hope you found inspiration and encouragement for whatever your may create.

Dashing Deer Grazing in Lovely Trees

Dashing Deer Grazing in Lovely Trees

Welcome to my Monday post, most people find Monday’s blah and wish they didn’t have to get up from bed on Monday’s.  Why has that happened to Monday’s.  Monday’s can be considered a new beginning.  You have heard this saying, I am sure.  “This is the first day of the rest of your life.”  Look at Monday as a new beginning!

My two little deer are in the meadow as snowflakes swirl all around, one is grazing and the buck is on look-out but I believe in real life, it is the other way around the doe will venture out into the meadow and the buck stays at the edge of the woods.  He finally venture out.   For today, he wants to be the protector! 

My card for today is from the Dashing Deer stamp set and Lovely As A Tree stamp set  and the Joyous Noel DSP.  I made so many card using these two products and each one is different.  The design my be a bit the same but it’s almost like doing a One Sheet Wonder.

My inspiration is from the  TGIF Challenges 178

The base is Tranquil Tide cut 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2”. The mat is Sahara Sand cut 4” x 5-1/4” The Snowflake panel is cut 3-3/4” x 5”.  The window cut in this panel is from a retired Stampin Up Die. You can use any die of  your choice to make this window.

The art panel is cut the same size as the Snowflake panel and stamp using the Lovely As A Tree stamp set in Tranquil Tide ink.  The Snowflake panel is adhered over the art panel using Liquid Glue, then popped onto the Sahara Sand panel.     

The two deer are stamped in Sahara Sand in on a scrap of Sahara  Sand card stock, then stamped again with Versa Mark and heat embossed using Clear Embossing Powder.  These are popped on using Mimi Stamping Dimensionals.

The inside sentiment is  stamped using Tranquil Tide ink on a piece of Whisper White card stock that has been cut using the retired Label Collection Framelits. The decorative part of the sentiment piece is the negative pieces that are left when cutting out the window for the front.

Thanks  for stopping by today.  I hope you found inspiration and encouragement for whatever your may create.

Triangles of Life

Triangles of Life

Today can be called a day of Joy and Sadness.  It is one of my grandson’s 21st birthday but also the day my Mother decided to go see Jesus. Sad, also, because I am not getting to join in all the fun with Mary and Amy and all the Krew on the retreat.   So, I want to focus on the happiness of my grandson’s birthday, so I won’t be sad on this day.

My card is created using the Touches of Texture stamp set.  A simple, yet sweet card.  The flowers in this set are great for making thank you notes and thinking of you cards.

The inspiration for the card comes from Color Throwdown #511.

The card is a one layer, other than the art piece.  The card base is Thick Whisper White cut 4-1/4 x 11 and scored at 5-1/2.

Two triangles were made by using two of the Layering Square Framelits and cutting from Pear Pizzazz and Melon Mambo.  Melon Mambo is closest to a berry color that I have.  It can be a strawberry.

The art piece is stamped in Memento Black Ink on the square of cardstock that was adhered with Liquid Glue to the Melon Mambo triangle.  I suppose the flowers could have been stamped directly onto the card stock base and then attached the triangles over it.  Probably would have been the easiest, but why take the easy way – right?

The flowers are colored using Stampin Write Markers in Melon Mambo, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz and Petal Pink (with 2 layers it looks like peach).  The bit of bling is from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

The inside sentiment is blank with just a faint shadow of the flowers stamped in the center.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope  you found encouragement, inspiration for your creations and an overall great feeling in your spirit.  Have a blessed day!
