People Like You Card

This stamp set can be used several different ways.  Previously, I have embossed it which was very pretty.  This time it was just stamped onto Whisper White card stock multiple times . The card was fairly simple just some paper cutting of the flowers.

Wisteria Wonder is one of my all time favorite Stampin' Up colors.  It just reminds me of spring and the flowers in my yard.  

My inspiration of course came from a card on pinterest by Shelly Godby.

The Open Sea Card

I love the stamp set, The Open Seas and I am so glad it is not retiring.  My father was in the Navy and my son-in-law Ian sails so this is just the perfect stamp for my family.

I saw a card similar to this one on pinterest by Omilee designs.  I canged it up some and used both the Woodgrain stamp and the Hardwoods stamp for the background.  I think I like the woodgrain better.  They were both inked in crumb cake and sponged on the edges.  I used the circle framelits to cut the porthole.  Finished it off with cherry cobbler baker's twine and mini brads.  I did not do a greeting.  The ship was sponged with soft sky and marina mist.

March Paper Pumpkin 2014

Stampin Up has stepped up their game with Paper Pumpkin.  I love the new March 2014 Paper Pumpkin.  Very cute frame, stamps and belly band to wrap the frame.  Just took a little time to put together.  Loving it!
This is the finished kit..

These are the supplies that were in the box.  Stamps, inkspots, glue dots, ribbon, buttons…
Everything you needed to complete your project except for the acrylic block which you
get in your starter kit.  FUN!!!!
