For a Great Friend – Lovely Inside & Out

Every now and then you look at a stamp set and think, this has potential but I honestly don’t know what to do with with.  The Lovely Inside & Out stamp is like that for me.  There are great phrases and some interesting texture stamps but I kept thinking how do I combine this.  Then there is a matching thinlit set too.  This card was a card I received in Saturday’s demo swap.  My sister, Tina, made this one.  I love the soft look of the Delightful Daisy designer paper and she paired it with Wisteria Wonder — oh, so pretty.

Bike Ride Basket full of Flowers

There are so many fun new items it’s hard to decide what to share each day.  Today’s card was one for our event on Saturday.  The card is sweet and simple — a little color but still very simple and it is so adorable.

Bike Ride with Wood Textures designer paper and some fun scoring with the Simply Scored Tool
Don’t you just love this little basket of flowers — it was stamped once on the Stitched Shape circle and then again on a second piece of Whisper White with Soft Suede ink.  The apples on the Stitched Shape circle are colored with Real Red and Old Olive markers.  You will cut out just the basket on the second image — attach it over the Stitched Shape basket with dimensionals.  Hey, did you know there are mini dimensionals in the new catalog.  I can’t wait to get them — they will be perfect for those little pieces.

On the 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Whisper White, the lines are created with the Simply Scored Tool.
How about that banner — don’t you love it.  It is the new Wood Textures designer paper stack.  There are so many uses for this paper.  I am positive it will go on backorder pretty quick — get your order in right away so you don’t have to wait for more to come in.
