ISSC 10

Good morning everyone! I hope you are having a great start to the week! I had a great workshop last night with some fabulous ladies! We laughed a lot and created some fun cards! It looks like I need to get some laundry done today. 


Today's card was inspired by a sketch from iSpy Sketches. I loved the circle elements and thought it would be perfect to show off the new Summer Smooches line. This is a special that Stampin' Up! is running for this month and most of the new products will be in the new catalog!! I took a piece of Whisper White that was cut down and adhered a piece of the Summer Smooches designer paper to the top part. To the bottom I stamped the greeting from Curvy Verses in Rich Razzleberry. I added a strip of Daffodil Delight card stock and then popped the entire panel up onto a card base of Whisper White. Then I stamped the leaves and flowers from Bright Blossoms onto a scrap piece of Whisper White in Lucky Limeade and Rich Razzleberry and punched them out with the 1 1/4" circle punch. These are adhered to circle that were punched from Rich Razzleberry with the 1 3/8" circle punch. I popped these up onto the card and added a little rhinestone to each. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

A Hostess Sneak Peek

Good morning, Friends! We made it safe and sound to my parents' house yesterday afternoon! It felt good to not be driving! It is supposed to be quite warm around here so I am not sure exactly what we will do today. Probably stay inside to stay cool!

Today's card is a simple one that is nothing special. I do like the way it turned out, though. I used the new hostess set called Simply Soft. I stamped the outline flower twice and colored them with markers. Then I wanted to create a soft outline around the images so I took my Sahara Sand marker and drew around the images. Then I took my blender pen to try and blend it all together. Well, it didn't quite work the way I wanted but I liked the effect just the same. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
