Do you have a friend that is awesome and you know that
everyone wishes they had this friend too.
Well this Friendly Wishes stamp set is just the answer for a special card
for your friend. You can let them know just how special they are.
The card base is Basic Black with a layer of Tip Top Taupe.
The designer paper is from the Go Wild Stack.
It doesn't look like anything too wild.
I cut out a piece of Tip Top Taupe cardstock with the
Lots Of Labels framelits — I love those.
I stamped the Friend image with Stazon and cut out with a
smaller Lots of Labels framelit. I colored the heart with
the Watermelon Wonder marker and FRIEND with the
Tip Top Taupe Marker.
I added a Watermelon Wonder heart to the top and put a little
rhinestone on the right side of the heart.
I tied a little bow from the 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon and
adhered with a glue dot.
Calla Lillies Going Wild
Ok, so I like to look at flowers but I don't really know what kind most of them are.
I believe these pretty flowers are Calla Lillies.
Fellow demonstrator Brian King inspired this layout.
I used the Go Wild designer paper and colored the stripes with
markers — So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz and Watermelon Wonder.
The card base is Watermelon Wonder with layers of Pear Pizzazz and
Basic Black. The flowers are so sweet and simple and I love the colored stripes.
Convention Loot
Well, life is back to "normal".
It was a busy day at work, all the house chores, dinner with hubby
and then stamping time preparing for my Going Wild Class.
But I didn't want to show you all the fun goodies I received at Convention
last week. A few new goodies from the Holiday Catalog that begins Sept. 1st.
I can't show them to you yet so they are hidden just a bit.
There are a couple of roomie/team gifts in the pile too.
Tomorrow I'll start showing you the cards from the Going Wild Class, but
in the meantime here's a card I received in one of the swaps I participated in.

This card was designed by Amanda Waldhardt, a team member.
I love all the different textures — both looks and feels on this card.
We used the Endless Birthday Wishes.
