Hello friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge for June.  We have a lovely combo of Old Olive, Coastal Cabana, and Pecan Pie.  I used a lot of patterned paper to help me complete this card, so I'm playing along with Just Add Ink #787.  I used Patterned Paper, Twine, and Shadows.  I just received a new order with a bunch of these fun papers in it and couldn't resist using them.  The flower vases/pots from Artisan Sketched Garden are super fun to color!
I'm also playing along with Tic Tac Toe Challenge #294.  I used the right/down column of Vellum, Twine, and Word Die

A Toast To Your Retirement! ~ GDP548


I made this fun card for a gal who is retiring from a lifetime of cooking.  She's cooked at hospitals and nursing homes and most recently she was the most awesome cook at our local school.  She's a fun gal and I knew she'd appreciate the puns!
I used the most awesome inspiration in Kim Fee's card from Global Design Project's Case the Designer Challenge.  I love Kim's work.

Congrats Grad ~ HSS488


Hello Friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge for May.  I'm needing a slug of graduation cards, so that's my theme today.  I pulled out a few older sets to help me complete this one.  I interpreted the sketch a little loosely, but it has all of the same elements.  Instead of placing the three gems along the top, I scattered them around the front. 





Here's a list of my supplies....
Stamps: Pue Gumption, Blue Ribbon, School Days, Notes of Nature
Paper: Black, Strawberry Slush, Daffodil Delight, Beautifully Penned DSP
Ink: Black, Strawberry Slush, Daffodil Delight 
Accessories: Notes of Nature dies, Black &White gingham ribbon, Sparkle Dots, Strawberry Slush Ruffle Trim
Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

A Friend Worth Celebrating! ~ HSS486, TGIFC572, TTYC290


Hello Friends!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Inspiration Challenge #486.  I didn't really have any images that went along with the inspiration photos, so I chose to use a combination of the colors in the pictures.  I used Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Daffodil Delight, and memento black.  I knew I wanted to incorporate the black and white gingham ribbon to mimic the checkered flags.  
The brand new set called Boutique Blossoms is where all the flowers in my bouquet came from.  It's available to order soon!  I also used a great birthday set called Words and Wishes.  It has lots of nice sentiments.
I used the sketch from TGIF Challenges and also the inspiration promps from Tic Tac Toe Challenge of Floral/Foliage, Free, and Encouraging Sentiment 





Here's a list of my supplies......
Stamps: Boutique Blossoms, Words and Wishes
Paper: Basic Black, Whisper White, Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Gold Foil 
Ink: Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Daffodil Delight, Memento Black, Daffodil Delight Blends
Accessories: Ornament Floral EF, Gold Cord, Gingham ribbon, Sparkle Dots, Boutique Blossoms dies
