Welcome and happy long weekend Friday to you! Today’s card features a truly beautiful stamp set bundle! This is the True Beauty Bundle(158984) and is a great match to the Awash in Beauty designer paper(158973). Combine these two items with the Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels and you have the Awash in Beauty Suite(158988). I love […]

PRETTY BIRDS BUNDLE
Hello and welcome. Today’s card features a brand new bundle that is full of pretty little birds! This cheeky budgie comes from the Pretty Birds Bundle(158847) and doesn’t he look so cute sitting on the cage! There are several ways to colour the birds, but I chose to use our Stampin” Blends in Daffodil Delight […]
FRIEND
Welcome to Friday – is it just me, or is time speeding by? However, today’s friend card did take a little time to put together. I tried several different stamp sets but settled on Framed Occasions(158745) for the sentiment and the Blessings of Home Bundle(157939) for the focal image. This pretty little bouquet was done […]
PRETTY HOLLYHOCKS IN A ROW
Today’s card is clean and simple that shows off the hollyhocks from the HoneyBee Home Bundle(157952). I used Stampin’ Blends in Flirty Flamingo, Fresh Freesia, Daffodil Delight and Soft Succulent. Then accented the black in the bees with the Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker. I didn’t like leaving the background plain, so cut a piece […]
HAPPINESS ABOUNDS
It truly is a happy day when a beautiful rose brightens your day, don’t you think? There it is, one beautiful red rose for a birthday greeting. I used the new and coming to you soon, Happiness Abounds stamp set which has matching dies so you can purchase it as a bundle when the new […]
THE BEST GUY
Hi and welome to Friday! I’m going to end this week with a “guy” card! It’s sometimes hard to do a “guy” card, but the Tasteful Touches stamp set(152562) has some great images to add texture to keep things reasonably simple. I pulled out the retiring Misty Moonlight ink pad to stamp those tiny blocks […]
I PROMISE
Promises are important aren’t they? No matter the promise, it has the opportunity to change things, even if a little bit. Why that philosophical opening? Well, I was playing around with the Here Together Bundle(160263) and it these “pinky swear” hands were the inspiration for this promise post plus this bundle is only around until […]
OH, THE POSSIBILITIES
There are lots of possibilities in the stamping world and Stampin’ Up! has the perfect sentiment for them. This sentiment comes from the retiring Hand-Penned Petals Bundle(155492) and makes the perfect addition to this card, IMO. I also added those die-cut words from the Floral Gallery Dies(154316) to make the point. I’m enjoying using our Blending […]
