Stamps: Kind Koala 134360 Inks: Memento Ink Pad 134708 Papers: Daffodil Delight, Rich Razzleberry, Basic Black, Moonlight DSP Stack Accessories:  1 1/4 Circle Punch 119861, Brights Candy Dots 130931, Daffodil Delight Trio Blendabilities, Rich Razzleberry Trio Blendabilities (as I was posting this, I realized I may have posted this card last summer, my apologies if it is a repeat) Just a quick reminder that there is about a month left to get 12 colors of Blendabilities trio marker packs for just FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration. Please use the item numbers on page 20 of the Sale-A-Bration brochure (regular item numbers are on page 212 of the Annual Catalog). Card measures 6" x 3". Decided to change things up a bit with size, and it fit what I wanted to do, a scallop border using the circle punch. The sheet of Moonlight DSP helps carry the circle theme to the card. The Kind Koala stamp works well with Blendabilities, and other markers or coloring t...

Something I just do not post on my blog much, my work in progress. Love this pattern and now struggling with where I should take it. Suggestions are most welcome.

I am having lighting issues with my pictures lately. My apologies). I like the clean crisp look of this card. Because I did keep the background with, literally, lots of white space, the eye goes to the camera right away. My little arrow punch doesn't hurt either. Yes, Sandy hand cut another stamped image. It is becoming a trend and I do not like it! It suited this card to have the camera cut. I survived the episode and so did the camera.  The camera was colored in using Blendabilities, Bermuda Bay trio 133623 (page 32 of the O...

While my thoughts of the day are still fresh in my mind I quickly scrapbooked the funeral I recently attended using the Project Life App for my iPhone. I even included the card I made, mostly because it made a nice filler card for this page and added some texture. The picture in the upper right is so "Jackie". Sitting at the cabin fishing with her grandson some warm summer day recently. It just might be my favorite of her. I know I have some pictures of her, or at least I think I do, in some photo box. If she was at the cabin and there was company chances are she was in the kitchen making food, or just making sure guests had what they needed. I am blessed to have known her for 41 plus years. She is the mother of a very good friend. Blessings during this time to the family, and extended family. The Project Life kit I used was Everyday Adventure. Even though it had some vibrant colors and a lot of "happy" cards, I found some that seemed suitable to the occasi...

Stamp s: Indescribable Gift 137180 w 138575 c Inks : Memento Ink pad 132708 Papers : Soft Sky, Wild Wasabi, Basic Black, Whisper White Accessories : White Bakers Twine 124262. Extra Large Oval punch 119859, Oval Framelits 129381, Soft Sky Blendabilities trio 133626, Wild Wasabi Blendabilities trio 133624, Decorative Dots TIEF 133520 I love the sweetness of the colors in this card. I am one not normally buying a lot of flower stamp sets (there are a large variety) for some reason I had to have this one. Maybe it is because it is simple and basic, maybe because it colors so well with Blendabilities, I don't know but I had to have it. The Wild Wasabi layer I did use a TIEF Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. It needed some dimension between the focal point and the card base. This was a fairly simple card to make. The two Blendabilities featured here are 2 of the 4 new color releases from Stampin' Up! You may find them listed on page 32 of the Occasions 2015 catal...
