Golden Anniversary

This was a clean and simple but elegant gold anniversary card. Used SU's detailed floral thinlits dies with last year's sale-a-bration metallic washi tape

Two hearts

Another simple card for anniversary or Valentine's but I did it for anniversary. I used some heart chip shape that I got at Impress and washi tape from my stash to cover them. I cover with tissue paper first as putting the washi tape by itself you could see the craft paper and it was easier than painting and you know me and my OCD :0) my background was done with script folder by Cuttlebug

Feliz Cumpleaños

Today is my mom's birthday and this is the card I made for her. I used the split panel with paisleys & posies set by SU stamped with brushed corduroy and the message is also by SU días felices

Hello

This was a clean and simple card that went in one of my donation boxes. I used confetti textured impressions embossing folder by SU, 3D sticker from the Dollar Tree, hello is from vertical messages set by Gina K Designs stamped with tuxedo black ink

Shoebox Tuesday

For today's shoebox project,  I decided to do one of the Sunday Tip or Techniques from one of my Yahoo Groups. This TT was doing background or stamping with rubber bands. I normally don't have rubber bands although my girlfriend reminded me I had bought a bag but since I don't use them I had forgotten that they were somewhere in my craft room, anyway I did find some that fit perfectly in my block. The original tutorial was using markers to color in the rubber bands and then sponge to add the color but I decided to use small ink pads spiced marmalade, dried marigold & ripe persimmon and instead of sponging my background I used a blending tool to do DTP with old paper ink. I stamped my leaf with vintage photo ink from the wonderfall set by SU and the message also with the same ink and SU from the set for all things and the punch duet banner. I mounted the top part of the punch with foam

thank you

One of my girlfriends gave me a bunch of background papers she didn't want and since I was working on one sheet wonders was perfect! still working on those so haven't used all the papers she gave me but there was a piece of paper she had used for something. My first instinct was to toss after all she gave me enough that that 1/3 piece wasn't much but was pretty to toss so this is what I made. I used massive messages set by Gina K Designs with espresso truffle ink and I used some scraps of white paper so cards are not A2 size

Red & white hearts

This was another clean and simple card, I saw the idea on Pinterest a while back. I used the hearts from adorning accents set texture impressions embossing border folder by SU; Classic heart dies by Spellbinders; faux pearls by Recollections; Words background stamp by Local King with love letter ink; Valentine’s Day ribbon by Celebrate it
