Wonderful Watercolor!

Good morning to all!  Isn't this absolutely amazing??  My swapping friend, Kimberly Allen, made this card for our swap.  She is so talented in so many different ways--truly an amazing person!  She used the stamp set, Always Thankful from the holiday mini and paired it with the spice cake dsp also from that same mini catalog.  Her watercoloring on this project is truly amazing.  The wheelbarrow just wows me!  I love the blend of color to create that rusty look.  Thanks for stopping by today.

More Spice Cake--mmmmm and calorie FREE!

I love this dsp called spice cake and I love spice cake but this one is totally calorie free in paper form!  Here is yet another sneak peek of a door prize card.  Will you be the lucky one tonight at class in Lewistown to win it??

What a fun card to make.  The leaves were cut with the Big Shot and the leaves #2 die.  I then ran them thru the embossing folder called square lattice to give them some fun texture.  The greeting comes from the Thank you so kindly stamp set from page 168.  Again, like yesterday, I am picking colors from the dsp so used crumb cake, early espresso, more mustard, and pool party.  Then some vanilla 3/8" taffeta ribbon.  I ran the dsp thru the leaf die to get a leaf to make a matching envelope.  You can find the spice cake dsp in our holdiay mini catalog from Stampin' Up!

Have a great day today and thanks so much for stopping by to visit.

Triple Treat Flower meets Spice Cake!

Today's post is one of the cards that I made for part of a door prize drawing for my class on Monday night, so if you are registered to come you are getting a sneak peek!  You might win it!

It uses the single stamp called triple treat flower found on page 18 of the current IB&C.  The greeting comes from Friendly Phrases found on page 162.  The Spice Cake dsp you will find in our holiday mini from Stampin' Up!   I took my colors to ink the flower with from the colors in the dsp.  I used soft suede, more mustard, and pool party.  Stamped the flower three times (triple treat) and punched them out with the ½ inch circle punch, 5 petal flower, and fancy flower punches.  I added a little vanilla seam binding and layered the flower over top with dimensionals.  I'm off to finish getting things ready for class tomorrow--I can hardly wait!!  It's gonna be such FUN!!  Thanks for stopping by today!
