Rise & Shine

For Christmas this past year I made a frame art for my sisters.  Denise's favorite color is blue and favorite season is summer.  That led me to the Good Morning Sunshine DSP and the stamps followed.

I did not get a photo of the entire frame, but what I do have here are the 4 sections of the 12" x 12" frame

Happy Valentines Day



Today I decided to play with sketch challenges.  I started with CCMC288 Color Challenge of Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana & Tangerine Tango.  Then I chose the MOJO330 Card Sketch.  

The big challenge for me was that I did not have any DSP in these colors.  I don't think I can do a card anymore without DSP.  I'm hearing violins playing softly in the background for me :)

The colors in Epic Day are very close to those in the challenge so I went with that and used the required colors for my stamped images.  I'm so happy with the result!

Thanks so much for stopping by .

Just For You

I'm ready for Spring!  Can you tell?  Soft colors of Crisp Canteloup and Sahara Sand with a touch of Whisper White freshness.  Add on a bold graphic design from the new DSP Sweet Sorbet I'm in love.  So pretty.

Happy Birthday Judy

Today's card is for my Aunt Judy.  I love the color combo!  Summer Starfruit, Raspberry Ripple, Gumball Green and Very Vanilla.  

This past summer I decided to use the Create a Cupcake stamp set and coordinating punch to simplify and reduce the time in making cards for my family for the upcoming year.  

I'm now about 6 months down the road and thinking that it was a wonderful idea.  I accomplished what I wanted to do.

Now if I could get them in the mail so they arrive on or before the birthday that would be wonderful.  

What do I do for the next year?  Hmmm.

Cheers To You

My take on the New Year is Cheers To You & You Are Priceless!

I found a similar design in our current catalog & thought it would work for the champagne glass image from the Cheers To You set.  If I were to redo it, I would use smaller bling and maybe a darker ink for the glasses.  All in all, I like it.  

May your new year be a Stampin Up one!!!
