With Love & Sympathy Ferns


Sharing a clean and simple sympathy card.  I cut out the ferns from the Forever Flourishing Dies in Basic Gray and Basic Black Cardstock.  The Smoky Slate Cardstock layer is embossed using the Subtle Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.









Daisy Lane Happy Birthday Friend Card


I made this Happy Birthday card for a friend using the Daisy Lane Stamp Set. I like the way the Smoky Slate Cardstock looks against the Daffodil Delight and Old Olive Cardstocks.

Details...
  • I stamped the leaves from the Daisy Lane Stamp Set in the background using Old Olive Ink.  I direct stamped and also stamped off the leaves.
  • The small daisy is stamped with Daffodil Delight Ink onto Daffodil Delight Cardstock and punch out using the Medium Daisy Punch.
  • Cut a piece of Old Olive Cardstock rectangle using the Rectangle Stitched Dies.
  • The Happy Birthday sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set and the Friend sentiment were stamped on Smoky Slate Cardstock in Early Espresso Ink.
  • Daisy center was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on to Crumb Cake Cardstock. 















Forever Greenery Suite


I can't get enough of the Forever Greenery Suite.  I used all the elements to make this card, including the Greenery Embossing Folders.  The Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper in the front panel measures 2 3/4" x 4 1/4" and the white cardstock layer behind it measures 3" x 4 1/2".

Cherish Every Moment with Forever Blossoms Stamp Set

Today's card is a quick and simple card.  I stamped the flowers from the Forever Blossoms Stamp Set in Memento Blank Ink and layered on Crumb Cake Cardstock and Black Cardstock.  The Champaign Rhinestones and the Linen Thread nicely compliment this simplistic card.











A Basket Full of Sunflowers


A bright Birthday Wishes basket full of sunflowers.  I used the smaller sunflower from the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set and colored them in using Daffodil Delight Blends, Old Olive Blends and Soft Suede Blends.  The basket is from an old die, but I couldn't resist using it.  Leaves are punched out with the Sunflowers Dies in Daffodil Delight and Pear Pizzazz.


 













Christmas Gleaming Merry Christmas Card


A simple Merry Christmas card using the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set.  I wanted to try new neutral colors for this card.  The ornament and greeting are stamped in Early Espresso Ink and the leaves are colored in using Old Olive Blends and Crumb Cake Blends.
