I've been working for a week and I definitely remember why I retired. Am so glad that retirement is my usual state now. Had to take a few days to finish things in my stamp room - actually just clearing a space on the desk so I could work. I am going to the lake later this week with one of my stamp groups so I had to get cards ready to demo. I also had to make a small hostess gift so I used this week's technique from Splitcoaststampers.com
The first image shows the 3 x 3 cards and tote I made. I used the Simple Friendship from Stamping up. Used Brilliance Blue cardstock and ink. Image was stamped on white. I made four cards and stamped the envelopes as well.
My daughter sent me some Flower Soft for Mother's Day so I just had to add to the colors that she sent me. LOL. I got the new floral set of Flower Soft. This first card is made with the SU Thoughts and Prayers set. I stamped the tree in basic brown on light blue cardstock and added the flower soft on the leaves and ground. I then used my nestabilites to cut out the image and matting. I ran the ivory cardstock though my cuttlebug and then rubbed my pretty in pink stamp pad lightly over the top. I stamped the "Thinking of You" (only half of the stamp) in basic brown on the small rectangle edged with Pretty and Pink ink. Ribbon is some I bought at the Great American Store, I think it is Mays Company ribbon - pink with green (I used the back side because it looked like green "x's")
Hope you enjoy this new posting.
