FS251 JBgreendawn

I have been taking care of family obligations and missed making cards!  We had a quiet, but great Thanksgiving this year.  Our oldest son is in Germany and the oldest daughter could not make it up from Florida.  But we all are thankful for our health and well being!

Today's featured stamper has loads of beautiful cards to pick from.  I go with the first as I don't have to make any final decisions on all the lovely cards!





Her card called "Swap Card" can be seen here ~ the first ~

I changed the colors a bit, used Real Red and White.  My ink is Wild Wasabi and Real Red.  The stamps are Stained Glass Background from Heartfelt Creations. And the punched images are Delightful Decorations from Stampin Up!  Her card was for Valentine's Day I think (made in December).  I also used Glimmer Paper, that stuff is so pretty in person.  and popped some elements on the ornaments.

Added a slit and used ribbon!  Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy this last little bit of week-end left.

inspired by iStamp31 on SCS


I used the first card posted by the delightful "iStamp31" over on SplitCoastStampers, the Featured Stamper for today.

We are to changed at least two things on the card to make it ours, so I changed the colors, stamp used and ribbon treatment. 

You can check out her card here ~ "inspired".






I used a pretty rose stamp I picked up in Germany while visiting my son and his family.  It is called "Stempel - Galerie".  My card stock is Garden Green. So Saffron, White and the dsp is from lemonade by basic grey.

I also used Daffodil Delight ribbon with a knot in the center for dimension, some silver elements and copics {Y02, Y06, G19, G28}.

Congratulations to the FS today!

Tuesday the colors on SCS ~ Cherry Cobbler, Early Expresso, Pool Party.  Lovely colors together!




I used the stamp with no name put out by Anna Griffin.  I stamped it in Early Expresso then colored it with Cherry Cobbler and Pear Pizzazz.  It looks almost velvet like.

I used labels eleven Nestabilities to cut it out and then cut a frame in Pool Party.  Behind that I cut a rectangle in Cherry Cobbler card stock.  Applied some silver pearls.

whoistracy

My pick for the featured stamper today "whoistracy".  Her first!  I liked the vellum overlay.  She said it is a sketch from Beate, but I don't have any details about who, what or where!



 





I changed the left side to embossing, changed the colors and size of the panels.  Her card  Owl Thanks Card can be seen here.


I used Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, and DSP from basic grey called Lemonade. I also used Modern Label Punch and Basic Black ink.  Brads and elements have been added.  The little sentiment is from Notably Ornate.  The Embossing is from the Just My Type put out by Provo Craft.

Have a great Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

Butterflies

Here's my card for Ways to Use it on SCS.  Butterflies ~




I stamped the Flourishes butterfly stamp on Vellum in Cajun Craze and cut them out by hand.  I stamped the solid base butterfly (from flourishes) in Tangerine Tango on the white, then on top with the flourish stamp in Cajun Craze again.  I used the Silhouette Sentiment stamp from SU and stamped in Old Olive.  I used the edge punch Fleur de lis for the border.  Added some elements on the wings and assembled my card.  My card stock is White, Cajun Craze and Tangerine Tango.

Again I have not posted a card until a few days late...

This is a combination card from SCS from last Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.  Faux tile is the topic for a new technique, the color combo is Real Red, River Rock and Old Olive and this sketch challenge.




I used the Cheesecloth stamp (retired) from Stamin Up for the tile,  for the sentiment and top panel I used the Fresh Cuts stamp set and shaded in the colors for the color challenge.  And added some elements (silver).  And used the sponge dauber to give the tiles dimension, plus did some scoring around the card.

My husband said the tile looked like the floor before you place the tile on it.

TFL!
