Very simple but effective.

I stamped the floral spray from Vintage Vogue in Crumb Cake, in opposite corners on the inside. I liked the simplicity of this card.

Vintage Vogue and Butterflies

This pretty card is very simply done; colors are Whisper White and Bermuda Bay. I rolled the Very Vintage wheel inked in Bermuda Bay across a piece of Whisper white cardstock twice to create a background, this was layered onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock which was then layered onto a Whisper White card base. The oval is the centre from the oval frame Bigshot die. The flowers were stamped using the Vintage Vogue set and the Bermuda Bay classic ink, the different shades were created by stamping off once and then stamping on the whie cardstock. I trimmed these out and layered the two sizes these were then placed around the oval which has been sponged with Frost White Shimmer Paint along the edges. The sentiment was also inked with the Shimmer paint. I then finished it off by adding a layered Butterfly which is composed of three butterflies from the Beautiful Wings embosslit. The stamp set, wheel and the embosslit can be found in the new Occaisions Mini catalogue. The Shimmer Paint was introduced in the Holiday mini but is still available. The other supplies can be found in the current Idea Book and Catalogue.

Hope you like it!

Vintage Vogue

This card was made for a color swap;black and white. I used the new Very Vintage Jumbo Wheel and the Vintage Vogue stamp set, both are found in the Occaisions Mini catalogue. The whell was inked in Basic Black and then rolled horizontally across the Whisper White, it was then layered onto a Basic Black card base, I then took a strip of black CS and used the scalloped border punch along the edge and placed it midway on the card front. I stamped the Friends image from Vintage Vogue, rounded the corners and layered it onto a rounded piece of black; this was all popped up on dimensionals. The sentiment was stamped with the shimmer paint which pulls in the half pearls that fit nicely in the scallops. These were from my stask and are non SU but I think the half pearls from the Pretties kit would work as well.

Hope you have a nice weekend,

White, Blue and Silver Hearts

One of the groups I belong to has a monthly swap and these are the cards I made for the Blue White and Silver swap. I got to play with my new toys....I love pretty much everything in the new Mini catalogue.
Both cards have the same elements, Night of Navy and Whisper White card stock, Night of Navy Classic ink and the Silver Shimmer paint. The Small Heart, Large Full Heart, Heart to Heart punches and a border punch. The stamp sets were I{Heart} Hearts and Vintage Vogue.

I created a background with Night of Navy and the floral flourish from Vintage Vogue by randomly stamping all over the Whisper white CS, next I stamped the friend heart onto the center of the background. I used the silver shimmer and applied it with a sponge dauber to the patterned heart in the heart set and stamped them onto the Night of Navy CS then punched them out with the Full Heart punch. I used the sponge dauber to color a small piece of Night of Navy CS and then punched out with the small heart punch, the smallest heart from the Heart to Heart punch was layered on top.
I placed the punched hearts as you can see in the picture and trimmed the excess off, popping up the small hearts with dimensionals. Punched a border along the bottom of the Navy layer and used the sponge dauber again to sponge Silver shimmer paint on the punched border. A Whisper White satin ribbon finishes it off.

The border of this first card was stamped onto the Navy CS using the border from Eggcoutrements stamp set which was then punched out with the Scalloped border punch, it fits very well.

For the second card I used the ticket corner punch and the new Scallop Trim punch, it is otherwise the same

Thanks for looking, have a great weekend!

Wonderful Weekend!

Well, the weekend was wonderful and fun! Not much sleep though I think I got more than most. The weekend was a crop hosted by my upline, Evelyn Wood. I don't do much/any scrapbooking and that is what everyone was doing there. I had no idea as I had never been to a crop before. Ha! Ha!
I took some tools, two stamp sets ( Vintage Vogue and With All My Heart) and some white, black and Bermuda Bay cards stock with me, as well as the new SAB paper pack Welcome Neighbour. All my stuff fit into the Big Shot Doctor's bag; most of the others looked like they had moved everything they owned into the hall where we were staying. There were 20 of us so there were lots of paper and tools everywhere.
There were a two Make and Takes which I did and an amazing goody bag; I knew ahead of time there would be a card swap so I figured I would work on those there as well.
This is one of the cards I came up with with limited the supplies I had.
It was really fun and challenging at the same time.

This card is using the new SAB paper pad( three different designs), the Butterfly Wings Emboslit, Bermuda Bay and Whisper White card stock, the large oval and the scalloped oval punch, the sentiment comes from the Vintage Vogue Set in the new Occaisions Mini Catalogue.

I will show you more as the days go on over the next little while so stay tuned.
