Old Olive Thank You

Here's another version of my card from yesterday.  My colors are the same but this time I mounted my paper onto Old Olive and put the pieces in different places.  You can have many different cards just by changing up the colors and placement!

I have a Stamp a Stack class tonight and I am really looking forward to it.  I enjoy sitting around a table and stamping with friends! I will post the cards we made next week!  Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!

Thank You

Last week I needed several thank you cards so I made them very similar but different.  I stamped my white paper pretty much the same but I changed each card up with different colors of cardstock. This one uses Cajun Craze and Old Olive.  The set is French Foliage, which I never get tired of using.  I hope my recipient enjoyed the card! I'll post another one tomorrow!  Enjoy your day!

French Foliage Triple Time

Today I have another card for you using the Triple Time stamping technique.  After making yesterday's card, I thought it would be fun to make a Triple Time card with the same colors.  It really is a fun technique and you can make a card in no time!

Fall Telescoping Card

Last week I showed you a telescoping card and here's another one I made using Fall colors.  I LOVE this set, French Foliage.  Here are a few projects I made last year with this set.  Please ignore the big black exclamation point.  I used to have a cute signature that is now replaced by that ugly graphic that I don't know how to get rid of .  This is a pretty easy card to make with the help of your Big Shot!

Take care and thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy a Treat

You could definitely say I am thinking about candy these days and how to incorporate it into my projects. It must be because Halloween is not too far away!

I've made a purse like today's project before but it was much larger and I put 3x3 cards in it .  You can see it HERE.  I changed the measurements up a bit so that it could hold a small piece of candy instead.  I tried making it with different paper but then decided to make my own DSP again although this time I used different colors:  Peach Parfait, Pear Pizzazz and Cajun Craze.  Normally I would have used Old Olive but I checked my Color Coach and it recommended Pear Pizzazz.  I used my Big Shot (of course) and the Scallop Circle #2 die as well as my Perfect Dots embossing folder. My purse strap is used with Peach Parfait 1/2 inch Stitched-Poly Ribbon.  I will be making more of these with some different colors and will post them soon.

To Brighten Your Day

Happy Monday!  I hope you had an enjoyable weekend!  I was able to do some stamping but not enough!!

This box is very similar to one I posted a few weeks ago and you can see it HERE.  I used a different stamp set on this box - French Foliage - but the colors are the same as the box in the previous post.

I made a bow and tag and attached it to the top. I meant to round all of the corners of my tag but of course remembered after I had attached my bow and it was too then too difficult to insert my punch.  Sometimes there's lots of trial and error while you are creating!  Only one corner is adhered to the box with glue dots and some dimensionals.  I used the Kraft Gift Boxes from the Holiday Mini.  These boxes are a perfect size, not too big and not too small.  I am going to give a gift card to someone that could use some cheering up and thought I would put it in this box on top of some shredded cardstock.

French Foliage Revisited

I had so much fun last week playing with my French Foliage set that I decided to play with it some more over the weekend. These colors make me think of Fall and I am so wishing for cooler weather -- the kind where you need a sweater, not too cool, not too hot.  Last week it was 90-100 degrees here.  Whew!  Too hot for me in September.

I started my card by stamping my leaf in Cajun Craze in random places around my Very Vanilla cardstock.  Cajun Craze it not a color I usually gravitate to but in the last week I've been reaching for it a lot.  Then I used the same stamp and used Pumpkin Pie.  My green leaf was stamped with Old Olive. Something else that can be done, which I did not do on this card, is to sponge the same colors all over the images.  I did try it on another card I made over the weekend but I didn't like the effect.  I have done this with other stamps though and it can have a very beautiful effect.  My sentiment is from a new stamp set called Friendly Phrases in the Idea Book and Catalog.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!!
