Petal Passion Designer Series Paper Colored In

I used Petal Passion Designer Series Paper for this card.  I colored in the flowers using Calypso Coral and Old Olive Stampin Blends. The greeting is from the Beautiful Day stamp set. 

To my surprise, I found that after coloring in the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper the image looked just as pretty on the reverse side.  So I colored in a scrap piece of DSP and made this cute little 4 x 4 card.

Happiest of Days Birthday Card

The Happiest of Days stamp set has a beautiful Birthday Wishes greeting.  I used Stampin Blends in Pool Party and Old Olive to color in the flowers.  

For the DSP background, I cut a piece of Petal Passion Designer Series Paper 4" x 4" and then cut on the diagonal.

Beautiful Day with Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper

I used Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to stamp the flower from Beautiful Day stamp set and used an Aquapen with Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz Ink pads to color in this beautiful flower. 

The flower is nicely complimented by the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper.

Beautiful Sympathy Cards...

I'm back posting on my blog...  Unfortunately I recently lost both my parents within a week of each other.  As you can imagine, it's been a difficult time.  Receiving these beautiful sympathy cards from my Stampin' Up! friends made me smile...

Bloomin Hearts Thinlits Cards

These cards were made easy with the Stampin' Up! Bloomin Hearts Thinlits Die.  For the first card, I used daubers and sponged the heart thinlit with Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz.  I kept a  sheet of white cardstock underneath so when I sponged, it created a reverse image on the paper.

Decorated the cards with Wisteria Wonder, So Saffron, and Pool Party flowers.
