Special Occasion Card

Comments: 0

Here is another retirement stamp. We are losing Oh So Succulent stamp set and framelit.  I thought it was so sweet the flowers and would be a perfect Mother’s Day card.  This set has everything we need to make mother smile.   In fact this card would work for a birthday too.  Because it has the words Happy Mother’s Day words, I will probably not get rid of this stamp as of now I don’t have a replacement for it.

Adding a doily makes it even more sweet because it gives the effect of delicate look. To add interest, emboss your card stock with an embossing folder.  The Falling Petals Embossing Folder is retiring.  If you look close at it, it looks like hearts. What embossing folder will you miss?  I am always sorry to see some go away, but excited for the news.

Tips and Tricks

Colors:  I choose one of my favorite colors, the a soft pink called Blushing Bride with the Mint Macaron.  By the way that color will be leaving us.  Mint Macaron was one of my favorite colors because it was a great go to color. I thought of it as a neutral color because of using them for baby cards.

 

  • Blushing Bride
  • Mint Macaron

Stamp Set:  We always have great flower stamps to choose from. Some are small and others large.  It is great to have the variety like we have in our gardens.  The Swirly Bird makes a  perfect wreath. Can’t you picture it hanging on your door?

It Is Time to Marble

Comments: 0

Don’t you love having a background on your cards?  However, sometimes you don’t have the right background or the right color.  Why not create your own background or have your children help you create that special card for grandma. It so simple to do with shaving cream and your reinkers. Yes, I said shaving cream.  Watch this video and let the fun begin.  Please leave me comments on the camera shot for this video. As I am making changes to how I shoot it.

 

By the way you can use one reinker or three reinkers. It is your choice. So let the imagination begin.

I walk regularly around a lake and the geese have returned to Iowa. It is wonderful see them and we are hoping for babies later this spring. So with the Stampin’ Up! Wetlands retiring, I thought it would great to make some cards with this stamp set. If you subscribe to my newsletter, you are receiving another card made with this set. I will truly miss this stamp set.

Tips and Tricks

Color:  With spectacular sunrises and sunsets, it makes a good background.

  • Cajun Craze
  • Archival Black
  • Daffodil Delight

Stamp Set: Oh so sad to loose our only goose stamp set……

  • Wetlands

Wetlands Clear-Mount Stamp Set

Ink:  Just think of what colors are the sunrises and sunsets.

  • Cajun Craze
  • Archival Black
  • Daffodil Delight

Paper:  One of the papers used here is retiring and it will be missed.  I think Tip Top Taupe is a great neutral to turn to when wanting a suttle background.

  • Tip Top Taupe
  • Cajun Craze
  • Whisper White’

Accessories: The only thing needed is your trimmer which is a basic requirement.
