love this staying. pretty straight forward card. the strip of flowers is stamped and teh large flower is cut out.

watercolor flowers

Had my stampin up club tonight and this was one of the projects we did. very pretty even if my coloring isn't the best. I don't always water color very well.

flowers

I know I have been gone for a long time. Its been crazy and not stopping anytime soon. But I have a few things to add to my blog so will schedule them out.

I did this in a stampin up workshop. great flower isn't it? and of course I had to have the scallop border punch.

spring flowers

As promised these are the two cards I did at my stampin up club meeting. Spring is in the air this is for sure.

flower

Did this for a cotm swap. I hadn't used these stamps by CTMH so figured it was a good time. I had the cuttlebug background done from a previous card I made.

Two things its pink and has a bow I must have been working with my alter ego that day. lol

embrace life tiles

Love this stampin up set. I don't think you can go wrong on these. I wasn't happy with the tiles I like the more rough looking tiles they are more porous. but anyhow used them. Used stampin up craft ink for this and the set is called Embrace life.



used a dauber to put color on the flower.

pretty in pink

everyone knows pink is not my thing so this was a tough challenge. another card from the virtual stamp night this one had to be pink floral.

I stamped the stampin up stamps on the background paper. Added a clear sheet of acetate that was embossed with the cuttlebug. This is hard to see because of the photo but in person it looks cool. then stamped a few more flowers and colored them then added them to the top of the acetate. it gives it a good dimensional look.
