Maybe it is the wonderful color, Poppy Parade or the cute little bee, this card just says SPRING to me. A quick and easy card, using Whisper White for the base and then two different papers of the Poppy Parade DSP from the Level 1 hostess gift pack and a simple Whisper White Taffetta knot allow the bee to take center stage. Recognize the sentiment.... it is from the set, On your Birthday and using my Poppy Parade marker I just inked up the part I wanted to use.
Happy Stamping,
So I might have lied to you. There is green today, but just a little and it is a different green, so that has to count right! And what about this color combo, Crumb Cake, Old Olive, More Mustard and Cajun Craze? Now I am not much of a Orange Rusty color girl so I had to brighten it up with a touch of green. I used the set, Just Buzzin' By, and stamped the bee and the honey pot onto Watercolor paper and then colored with Watercolor Crayons and my Aquapainter. Since I haven't ordered the new Crumb Cake ink pad yet, I stamped the Woodgrain background stamp with Versamark. The retired Old Olive Taffeta ribbon is attached with a wire clip from the Clips Assortment. And inside
a couple more stamps from the same set.
Happy Stamping,
You have heard the buzz about the new Idea Book and Catalogue coming July 1, but why do you need one? Notice the book is called Idea Book- that's right, there are tons of ideas in the book and they not only show you examples but also the recipes for the cards, so you know what you need. Take the Just Buzzin' by card on page 102 for example. I looked up the recipe and it says
Cardstock: Rose Red, Pumpkin Pie, Close to Cocoa, Watercolor Paper
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, More Mustard, So Saffron, Bashful Blue, Mellow Moss
Accessories: Dimensionals, 5/8" Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Aquapainter
Well, I have everything to make this card so, Ta-da
Using the Idea Book and recipes, not only can you help yourself when you have lost your Mojo, but also come up with color combinations that you may have not thought of. Now, myself, I would never have thought of putting Pumpkin Pie with Rose Red, but it looks awesome.
So, if you want(NEED) the latest Idea Book and Catalogue, contact and find out how you can get it.
Happy Stamping,
How are these for putting a smile on someone's face?
These happy little bees can't help but lighten ones' mood. The bees are from Just Buzzin' By are stamped with Black Stazon onto Whisper White and colored with Crushed Curry marker and the wings are highlighted with Dazzling Diamonds and they top these little little bags filled with Smarties
Quick, easy and a great smile creator!
Happy Stamping,
A bright colorful card for a change. I think I like green. This card uses Kiwi Kiss for the base,and retired DP Haiko, which I love. The hive is stamped with Staz-on onto watercolor paper colored with markers and cut out. The cute little bees are stamped onto Whisper White and cut out. The upper bees are layers onto 1 1/4" punched circles, 1 3/8" black punched circles and pumpkin pie scalloped circles then attached to scrap, turned and punched again to they look more like flowers. Of course, the bees are finished off with Dazzling Diamonds.
