Country Morning



The Stampin' Up set Country Morning is one of my favorites. It is one of the coming up retired sets. I have been playing around with it. This is what I made. I have one more idea I want to work but I need to make one more Father's Day card first.

Be back later.....

Quickutz Flower


While my parents were in town for my son's graduation, my Mom picked up this quickutz die at hobby lobby. I just had to play around with it.

On the yellow flower, I used copic markers Y000, Y11, Y02. The pink flower has RV21, RV02, and RV34.

Stampin' Up Thoughts & Prayer Set



I was look around Splitcoaststampers and I ran across a card and I just had to try the technique. The tutorial can be found here. I just love the look. I hope everyone enjoys it.

I am going to try and post more about the cards...

I used the above technique to get the clear area and then stamped it with the "Thoughts & Prayers" set by Stampin' Up. I colored the embossed flowers with Copic RV21. Oh, I almost forgot the embossed area is using the Stampin' Up texture folder "Petals A Plenty".

I will be using the technique again.

Graduation Cards 2





Here are two more cards I have made for the class of 2010. The gown one is my son's favorite.

The paper on the second one has embossed graduation caps. The picture doesn't do the paper justice. The stamp is in the new Stampin' Up summer mini.

Graduation Cards

I have been busy finishing up the school year and getting ready for my son's graduation. Both are over and I have the summer ahead of me. As always, I have some major projects to work on, but hopefully I will have lots of time to play.

Here is one of the graduation cards I made for my son's friends...


It is a tri-fold card using the school colors, blue and gold. I used Stampin' Up Congrats, Stampin' Up Say It With Scallops and Impression Obsession Graduation.

I will post some other cards later this afternoon, along with a couple of my son's graduation pictures.
