110- Watering Card


Yet another card that I made using Colleen's sets. I love how this turned out but it took a lot of time to colour. I loved trying out my new crystal effects- very fun

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Blooming with Love

Ink: going gray, old olive, bashful blue, pretty in pink, lovely lilac, only orange, ruby red, summer sun

Paper: whisper white, old olive, bashful blue

Accessories: blooms and bulbs wheel, crystal effects, scallop punch, blender pen, 1 3/8" circle punch, 1 1/4" circle punch

109- Morning Glory


I was up in Kirkland Lake stamping this weekend and used everyone elses stamp sets so I could try something new. This is Colleen's set Morning glory. I do love the colours but almost wish that I hadn't coloured it in- it was really nice when it was just black and white

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Morning Soft

Paper: baha breeze, whisper white, basic black

Ink: basic black, baha breeze, certainly celery

Accessories: black ribbon, blender pen

108- Baroque medallions


Yet another card with my new baroque background. I also used the baby wipe technique to do the medallions- however, i didn't have any reinkers so used the ink spots on a baby wipe instead. It is really faint because of it- I will need to repeat this with reinkers.

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Baroque, baroque motifs

Paper: riding hood red, creamy caramel, basic black, whisper white

Ink: riding hood red, creamy caramel

Accessories: baby wipes, linen wheel, versamark

107- Chalked Baroque Card


I just got this baroque background and am completely obsessed with it. I heart it. I wanted to try my chalks again and try out this bow from Stampin Success- it was something I have wanted to do for a while

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Baroque

Paper: Whisper white, chocolate chip

Accessories: taken with teal chalk, chocolate chip 5/8" grosgrain ribbon

106- Vellum Love Card


I absolutely love this card- it is so demonstratable! It is really simple but so nice

Recipe:

Stamp set: wonderful words

Ink: elegant eggplant, so saffron

Paper: elegant eggplant, whisper white, vellum

Accessories: brads, silver embossing

105- Priceless Kind Card


Another card that I made at Jen's. I love the use of the slot punch to put the ribbon through the fold. I also love the emboss resist and that it was all done with one stamp set.

Recipe:

Paper: Very vanilla, pretty in pink, rose red

Ink: pretty in pink, rose red

Accessories: clear embossing, vanilla ribbon, horizontal slot punch, 1 3/8" square punch, 1 1/4" punch
