Waves of the Ocean Fun

Last night’s Facebook Live was a Waves of the Ocean fun but simple birthday card
and a totally awesome card with a seagull.

The products in the Waves of the Ocean Collection are so amazing and gorgeous.
I just received my items last week and decided I needed to share them.

The first card was inspired by fellow demonstrator, Jackie Bolhuis.
It is super simple and very tropical with layers of Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.
I love the dimensional look of the wave which is stamped three times
starting with Pool Party ink, then using a Sponge Dauber to dab on some
Coastal Cabana and finally dabbing on some Bermuda Bay.

Measurements

Thick Basic White — 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — score at 4 1/4″
Bermuda Bay — 3 1/2″ x 4 3/4″
Coastal Cabana — 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″
Basic White — 3 1/8″ x 4 3/8″

 

Then I saw this fabulous layout by Amy Knoeders and knew I had to make this one
with some Peggy modifications — layers and Dimensionals.

The top Basic White layer is embossed with the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder
The sun piece is Basic White that I used the Blending Brushes with So Saffron, Daffodil Delight
and Bumblebee stamp pads to create a fun sunset looking piece that is mounted on So Saffron.
I just love the seagull on the pilon — he is stamped in Soft Suede.
I added a layer of Bermuda Bay between the Basic White layers to give it a little
bit of a tropical feel to the card.

Stampin’ Sisters Retreat 2022

I took a little Blog break last week, but I am back to share
our Stampin’ Sisters Retreat 2022.

We spent March 4 – 6 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Rockford, IL
with 92 fabulous ladies.  Yes, we did a lot of stamping but we also
had a lot of fun and laughs throughout the whole weekend.

It was so good to be able to be together in person this year.
Here is our group pictures with almost everyone in it.
The hotel is so wonderful to move furniture around so we
can take this picture each year.

The weekend started Friday night at 7:00 p.m. — everyone was lined up in the
hallway waiting for the doors to open and reveal this year’s them.

Our theme this year was Creativity at Work.
We had a fun display table with little workbenches, construction cones, hard hats and work aprons.

Here is the room just before we opened the doors.

Tina and I greeted them at the door wearing hard hats and aprons 
along with fun Creativity at Work T-Shirts — we forgot to wear out hard hats in our selfie.

There was a tool box full of goodies waiting for each guest.
The tool box was filled with 8 projects to be completed over the next 32 hours
plus Blending Brushes, Sponge Daubers, Dimensionals, Green Glue,
a Stamp Set and Designer Paper and their Prize Patrol number.

Throughout the weekend everyone got to play our Construction Cone Toss Game
to win a prize (the prize was guaranteed even if they didn’t “win” the game).

We had a gift for our Newbies.
Newbies are first time attendees of our Stampin’ Sisters Retreat.

Happy Birthday with Butterflies & Flowers

Last night I shared a fun Happy Birthday with Butterflies & Flowers card
while sharing the fabulous new Butterflies & Flowers Masks.

 

Butterfly & Flowers Masks, Birthday, Stamp with Peggy

 

We used these masks for one of the projects at our Stampin’ Sister Retreat this past weekend.
They were so much fun I wanted to share them with all of you.  The masks are super easy to use with
Blending Brushes and ink.  There are so many things you can do with them.  You can use the shimmer paste that has been colored with reinker and trowel it over the ink base for added texture.
So many techniques to try — I can’t wait!!
