Blank card

Well, it's been very hot here in Ottawa this weekend, so I took the time to do some stamping!  I thought this gave me the perfect opportunity to get some cards made in advance in case life gets too busy in the next few weeks!  I went over some of the old sketches at some of my favourite sites (Clean & Simple, Mojo Monday, Sunday Stamps, etc).   Unfortunately, my memory has failed me and I can't remember where I got the sketch below from - must be the heat!

The products I used for this card are as follows:

*Daffodil delight card stock (119683)

*Floral district DSP (126919)

*Baja breeze card stock (for the 3" circle) (111352)

*Whisper white card stock (100730)

*Rich razzleberry card stock (115316)

*Retired daffodil delight ribbon

*Betsy's Blossoms stamp set (W126004 / C126006)

*Rhinestone basic jewels (119246)

*2 1/2" circle punch 120906

*3" circle originals (for the Big Shot) 122125

I hope you all enjoyed the weekend and have a great week!

Weekly challenges

As I mentioned in my last post, following my card class over the weekend, I've been feeling quite creative and decided to take the opportunity to try out some of this week's challengers.  The first one is for the Mojo Monday sketch (mojomonday.blogspot.com):

I've been on a bit of a baby card kick lately as I have had to go to a couple of showers for friends.  The products used for the Mojo Monday card are:

*Blushing bride (2010-2012 In-Colors - now retired)

*Twitterpated DSP (125406)

*Velvet ribbon (retired but it was from the last holiday mini)

*Fox & Friends stamp set (retired)

*Pearl basic jewels (119247)

*Crumb cake ink pad (126975)

If you haven't yet had a chance to try out the new ink pads, let me tell you, although I was sceptical at first, they are fantastic!  Even if you only get your favourite colour, I know you'll love it!!!

The next card I made was for a Sunday Stamps challenge (sundaystamps.blogspot.ca).  It is based on this week's sketch.  This challenge site goes between sketches and colour combinations.  Given that we are having very summery weather, I felt that the Mouthwatering stamp set needed to be used!

The products used for this card are as follows:

*Not Quite Navy card stock (101722)

*Brights DSP Stack (117155)

*Whisper white card stock (100730)

*2 1/2" circle punch (120906)

*Mouthwatering stamp set (W125675 / C125677)

*Itty bitty banners stamp set (W126255 / C126527)

*Finishing touches edgelits (127010)

*Bitty banners framelits (129267)

If you have any questions about the cards or if you would like to order some of the products I've featured, feel free to contact me.

Card Class

As I mentioned in a previous post, I held another card class over the weekend.  The group were amazing and they actually (without them even knowing it) gave me some inspiration to create some more cards.  But first, here are a couple of the cards we made:

My colour combination here was melon mambo (Brights collection), gumball green (2012-2014 In-Color collection) and whisper white (Neutrals collection).  The other products used were:

*Brights DSP stack (117155)

*Perfect polka dots embossing folder (117335)

*Mouthwatering stamp set (W 125675 / C125677)

*Melon mambo polka dots ribbon (retired)

*Word window punch (119857)

*Modern label punch (119849)

*Rhinestone basic jewels (119246)

*Teeny tiny wishes - my go to greeting stamp set (W 115370 / C 127802)

The colour combination on this card is summer starfruit and midnight muse (2012-2014 In-color) and soft suede (Neutrals collection).  The other products used are:

*Comfort cafe DSP (126898)

*Layered labels (W127070 / C127072)

*Papillon potpourri (W123757 / C123759)

*Apothecary accents framelits (127003)

*Large oval punch (119855)

*Elegant butterfly punch (127526)

*2 1/2 circle punch (120906)

*Naturals designer buttons (127554)

*Hemp twine (retired)

This card goes against the grain for me in terms of style, but I was quite pleased with the result.  My inspiration again was a sketch mojomonday.blogspot.com.  I have decided to use this card as my swap card for an upcoming swap I am participating in.  I did make a couple of modifications to the swap card as I only put one butterfly on the card and I used natural linen thread (104199) instead of the hemp twine as only current products could be used.  I hope this gives people ideas on how to use summer starfruit though as I have read that some people are struggling with this colour and I promise, it's actually a lot of fun to use!

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the cards, if you would like to order any of the products, or if you would like to join my next class!

Summer Smooches

Summer Smooches is one of the new suites that are available.  I previously mentioned that I love girl things.  I also love bright colours.  So with flowers and bright colours, what can I say, I'm loving this set!  Some of these cards came from my previous card class and some will be used in my upcoming one (I promise to never showcase cards in advance of a class again but I think given how new this blog is and the fact that I have told only a couple of people about it, it should stay quiet and not ruin any surprises!).

Summer smooches products are as follows:

*DSP 125409

*Bright Blossoms stamp set (W 125495 / C 125497)

*brads are discontinued but the brights designer buttons (119747) would coordinate really well too.

I did use some 3/8" ruffled ribbon, rhinestone basic jewels, tiny tags stamp set (W118091 / C118592), jewelry tag (117190) and some other recently retired ribbon.

Feel free to email me if you would like any information about the cards, dimensions or if you would like to get any of the products.
