SNEAK PEEK - Paisley Petals

Isn't this the most gorgeous Designer Series Paper? It's the new DSP Paisley Petals from the upcoming Summer Mini. I took one sheet and cut out the image to use as the art piece and focal point for my card.  The background was spritzed with the Not Quite Navy Stampin Write Marker.  A 2 3/4" circle was masked off and sponged with Not Quite Navy. Layers are Not Quite Navy and Whisper White, then was punched with the Scallop Trim Border punch.  I added pearls to finish off the card.   If you'd like to be among the first tovhave this gorgeous paper, please email me at sherrysinknstamps@yahoo.com, I'd love to be your Demonstrator.

Hand Stamped Sentiments -Blooming Blossoms - Challenge #60

I hope each of you that take time to visit my blog this week will join me at the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge Blog for this week's Theme Challenge #60 Blooming Blossoms.  I dusted off a stamp set that I hadn't used in a very long time, the Friends 24-7 set.  It has some great stamps in it besides the stem of flowers....a flourish, 3 sentiments, and  a bird (which I didn't use.).  I chose White Textured CS for the Fancy Favor Box and the Butterfly Bookmark (Sizzix Beatuiful Butterflies Die).  The card is embossed with the Elegant Lines folder.  A piece of the new Paisley Petals is SNEAKING A PEEK from behind the art piece.  Both pieces have 2 edges punched with the Scallop Trim Corner Punch.  Everything is sponged in Not Quite Navy and colored with Stampin' Write Markers.  Inspiration for the card came from a gorgeous Birthday card I received from Debbie Pike.

Birthday Bakery

This is a card I made for my Brother-in-Law.  I used Not Quite Navy and Bashful Blue mounted on Whisper White for the card base.  I stamped the Birthday Bakery (IB &C Hostess Gift) and the Happy Birthday from Bring on the Cake (New Occasions Mini) stamps on Whisper White in Black StazOn and colored it with Stampin' Write markers and a blender pen.  It is finished off with a piece of Marina Mist Satin Ribbon.  If you need any of the supplies I used to create this card with, please email me at sherrysinknstamps@yahoo.com.  I'd love to be your Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.

Baby Tees

Well my vision for this card turned out a little skewed.  I guess I should have checked the size of the clothes pins before putting my plan into action. LOL  But none-the-less, it still turned out kinda cute. I made the sky with a scallop circle and Not Quite Navy ink on a sponge.  The paper and ribbon are From Sale-a-Bration (Ice Cream Parlor).  Woo Hoo Free paper and ribbon!  The Onsies are from the Baby Tees Jumbo Wheel, and colored with markers and cut out. The sentiment is also from Sale-a-Bration (So Happy for You).

Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge Blog #55

 

I hope each of you will join me this week iin the challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments. This week the challenge is a sketch challenge.  I took the sketch litterly, to me at least.  Yes, it looks like a jeans pocket, but you can use any shape for the pocket that you want.  I used blue monocramatic colors for my card (Bashful Blue, and Not Quite Navy) Don't you just love how the Presto Patterns DSP looks.  I thought the Paris looked like a jenas logo and the flourish (which I think looks like an embroidered design) is from the Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set Bliss.  Wouldn't you just love to rock a pair of awesome jeans like this?  Have fun with the challenge this week.  I'd love to see some of my followers and subscribers join in on the challenge.
