Thank you Friend card

If you are looking for a lot of Thank you sentiments the Ornate Thanks stamp set has many and I used several in today's card. I used the Stamparatus to position the sentiments exactly where I wanted.

I was going to add a pretty flower in the open space but then I thought of the cute lady in the Bunches of Fun stamp set.  She's definitely is a fun character stamp and just by changing the color of her hair, skin & dress you can match her to any card style.

I entered this card in the CAS Color & Sketch challenge #434 

ENJOY!

Base White 8 1/2 x 5 1/2
Matte: Black 5 3/8 x 4 1/8
Stamping Piece White 5 1/4 x 4

Peaceful Deer - non holiday card

 Today I wanted to share a how to make a non-holiday card using the Peaceful Deer Stamps.

I was inspired by all the deer in the park next to my house...just a lot of greenery and a bunch of deer (eating all the greenery)  LOL!  




The Peaceful Deer stamps coordinate with the Deer Builder Punch.

PEACEFUL DEER - TREE & DSP

My card today is showing off the pretty Peaceful Prints DSP that is a FREE item in the Sale-a-bration catalog.  It coordinates with the Peaceful Deer Stamps and Coordinating punch. I decided to stamp one of the trees in that stamp set because I thought it subtly showed off the beautiful paper.


I submitted this card in the  Global Design Project Challenge - a layout challenge. #GDP306
I love challenges as they spark creativity!  


The red plaid DSP is 5 1/4 x 4 and the Tree DSP and white pieces were cut using the all versatile Scalloped Contour Dies.  A simple stamped tree, a few red jewels and a bow with the new black & white gingham ribbon and this card is done.
(Inside I added a pretty sentiment from this stamp set and a red plaid strip of the DSP 3/8 x 4)

I hope you enjoy today's card.

The supplies I used are listed below and are clickable shopping links should you want to buy some supplies but remember, the paper can be earned free with a $50 purchase.

SPOTLIGHT ON STAMPING - LOVE OF LEAVES

 On today's Spotlight on Stamping Live Video I showed in detail how to use the Love of Leaves "distinktive" stamps to get the best stamped image. These stamps are meant to have a uneven look with darker and lighter areas for a more realistic/artistic result.

I also showed my card samples and described many of the different techniques possible with the Love of Leaves stamps & Stitched Leaves dies.


In ending we made a Thank You note card. Stampin Up Note Cards are a great value and are one of my favorite stamping staple....all ready scored and envelopes are included!  


Below are shopping links for the stamps set & die set and some of the stamping supplies used in making this notecard.
