Stampin' Up! Flowering Flourishes

The bottom of this card was made using Flowering Flourishes stamp set.  Love those big crystal buttons.

Stampin' Up! Blooming With Kindness and Happy Birthday Everyone

This was a project from my July class.  This flower is from the Blooming With Kindness Stamp Set... it's retired, but I love this flower.  The greeting is from the new hostess set Happy Birthday Everyone.  I used Strawberry Slush ink and DSP.

  

Stampin' Up! Birthday Blossoms

I couldn't wait to play with the new stamp set Birthday Blossoms.  I used Pink Pirouette and Pear Pizzazz for this card.  I love that the Stampin' Up! Pansy punch works for this set and the Flower Shop stamp set.  This was also one of my July Stampin' Class Projects.

Stampin' Up! Weekly Deals: July 21-27

Throwback Thursday: Stampin' Up! Two Tag Die Cut

The Two Tag Die Cut is retired, but boy was it useful...  these are just some of the projects I made using that die.  It was so versatile.

Tuesday Technique: Faux Wood Technique

Very cool technique... looks like wood planks.  This is done with inks and scoring tool.  This would be a great background for a "fall/autumn" card.  I always wonder who comes up with these cool technique ideas.

Stampin' Up! Best Thoughts

I love this new Stampin' Up! stamp set, Best Thoughts... It's one of the hostess sets from the new catalog.  I cased this card from Pinterest.  I switched up the design a little.  I embossed the flower and the butterfly with white embossing powder and colored them in with So Saffron, Daffodil Delight and Last Lagoon.  Love the way it turned out.
