Blooming With Kindness Sympathy Card

These cards are a partial case from one I found on Pinterest.  Thinking maybe it might be too bright for a Sympathy card & should change it to a birthday card or get well card.

Uses the Blooming with Kindness flower stamp, Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, one of last years Designer Series Paper, Finishing Touches Edgelits, Adorning Accents Edgelits, Floral Frames Framelit, Delicate Designs Folder, Crumb Cake Seam Binding Ribbon, Pacific Point Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon.

Pop Up Posies Designer Kit

This card uses the Pop Up Posies Designer Kit from the current Spring Catalog.  If I did anything different with the card I think I would have used different words that would have taken up more space like the Feel Goods stamp set I just got. 

Also used was the Houndstooth embossing folder & some of the Saleabration Sycamore Street Island Indigo ribbon.

Guest Artist- Barb Culbertson

Barb made this at Open Stamping awhile back & I am just getting around to sharing it.  This uses The Open Sea stamp set & Bring on the Cake stamp set.  She then made the little candle.   Simple masculine card.  Thanks Barb.

Guest Artist- Roxxy Zilk & my Stampin' Up Product Remake

 

My friend Roxxy gave me the Valentine card on the left just to give me an idea for a possible future card.  To the right is my Stampin' Up! remake of her card.  Thanks for the idea Roxxy.   

Happy Valentine Day to all my friends & family!

Heart Treat Cup Valentine

Had some retired Heart Treat Cups I bought on the Clearance Rack & wanted to try a Valentine card using a technique another demonstrator had shown to take the treats out without wrecking the card.  It was a hit. 

After the candy is gone there is a little message for the recipient.

Valentine Sweethearts decorating My Stamping Place

Last weekend Aubrey & Leah decided we needed to put something new on the curtains in My Stamping Place.  They helped cut & emboss many hearts with the Big Shot & all the different embossing folders.  They then glued them together.  I cut some velco & they helped attached them.  They put all the hearts up they could reach by being on chairs or on the counter & then I finished putting the rest up.  Thanks so much girls.   

 

Just getting back into stamping more since I had my concussion.  Hope you enjoy the scenery.
