Best of Everything

I'm back in my stamp room! Yippee! We spent all weekend & much of yesterday moving everything that was in my old office down the hall to the guest room, which will be my new office. It is still an enormous mess, but at least I have a work space set up to stamp & my computer is set up. My hubby is spending this morning painting my old office, which will be the baby's room. I am so excited to get everything set up!

Today I decided to take a break from holiday cards & pull out one of my favorite stamp sets, Best of Everything. It is such a cute & cheery set!

I also haven't used my Paisley Petals Designer Series Paper lately, so combining the two created an easy card. I"m loving the scalloped rectangle, which I created with my Scallop Trim Border Punch & Scallop Trim Corner punch.

SC350 WT340 Just Believe

Hello! Today's project was inspired by the Ways to Use It & Sketch Challenges over on Splitcoast. The Ways to Use it Challenge was to use the Chalkboard Technique, which I haven't done in ages, so I was excited to use it with the Just Believe Stamp Set!

Usually when I do the Chalkboard Technique, I like to stamp an image on dark cardstock & use my sponge daubers & classic inks to color it. This time though, I let my white ink dry, then used my Watercolor Pencils to color it in. I like how it turned out on the Soft Suede cardstock.

That gorgeous patterned paper is the Spice Cake DSP, which is new in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalog. I think it is some of the most gorgeous DSP that Stampin' Up! has ever come out with! Those colors are beautiful together!

French Foliage Sketch Challenge

With the extreme heat wave hitting us today in Virginia, I'm dreaming of cool Fall weather. Today my project was inspired by the sketch challenge over on Splitcoast. I have had this block stamped piece lying around in my craft room for ages, so I decided to build my project around this piece:

Ooh la la!

The main image was made by inking the clear block used for mounting the clear mount stamps in River Rock ink and stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock. Then the leaf from the French Foliage stamp set was stamped over that. I sprayed it with Log Cabin Smooch Spritz for some shimmer & texture.

The card base was stamped with En Francais background stamp & sponged with Early Espresso ink. The banner greeting was also sponged. The cute little Mini Vintage Tag hanging from the Victoria Crochet Ribbon was stamped with another stamp from the French Foliage stamp set. 

The Cajun Craze strip was embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder & the Big Shot.

Stampin' Up! Supplies:

STAMPS: French Foliage (121166 clear mount or 120845 wood), En Francais (109521), Fundamental Phrase (retired)

CARDSTOCK: River Rock (108640), Cajun Craze (119684), Early Espresso (119670), Very Vanilla (101650)

Inspired by Nature

Happy Sunday! This morning, I really felt like doing a sketch, so I hopped on over to Splitcoast for their Featured Stamper challenge. Ohmygosh, was I ever inspired!

I chose a card from the featured stampers gallery to CASE, & I changed the DSP, the greeting, & the main image stamp set. One of my all time favorite stamps sets is Inspired by Nature, & I knew this set would work perfectly with the layout!

I inked the stamp with my Chocolate Chip, Always Artichoke, & Tangerine Tango markers & sponged Chocolate Chip around the edges of the flower petals. I wanted this to look a little rustic, so I spritzed the stamp with water before stamping in the Very Vanilla paper. The edges of the vanilla were also sponged.

The pretty patterned paper is the Paisley Petals DSP, which inspired my color scheme. 

The greeting is from the Fabulous Phrases stamp set. I just got this word set & I love it! I earned this set for free during Sale-a-bration, & I waited 3 months to get it! That was torture- lol!

Stampin' Up! Supplies:

STAMPS: Inspired by Nature (111656), Fabulous Phrases (120501 clear or 117002 wood)

CARDSTOCK: Very Vanilla (101650), Chocolate Chip (102128)
