Pool Blooming with Kindness

Hi there!  Geez this week is going so fast!  Spent most of the day (well now it's yesterday) working on projects and shopping.  Thought I'd better pop in to post a card.  The above card was sent to my oldest for her birthday.  Saw this somewhere on Pinterest.  A clear acrylic block was inked up with Pool Party ink then stamped on a White panel.  The flower and sentiment are stamped in Early Espresso ink.  The focal piece is adhered to the card front with Dimensionals.  The simplicity of this card is striking and perfect for a number of occasions.

Indigo Delicate Doilies

Inspiration = Pinterest

Hi there and happy Monday!  I'm gonna jump right in with today's card - lots to do to prepare for the holidays.  Begin by masking off a rectangle area on a 3-3/4" x 5" panel of White with Post-it notes and lightly sponge on Pool Part ink.  Stamp images from Delicate Doilies with Island Indigo ink - the lighter one was stamped off, then remove mask.  Stamp another doily image on a piece of scrap White, cut out, and adhere to focal piece with Dimensionals.  The sentiment is from A Word for You set.  The focal piece gets matted to a 4" x 5-1/4" Island Indigo panel, then adhered to the card front.  Easy Peasy!  Just think of all the color combinations you could do!

Remember the Clearance Rack Blitz going on right now.  A lot of good deals out there!  Call or email me if you want to place an order (contact info on side bar and above in header). 

That's it for now.  Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!

Fabulous!

Hi there!  Here is one of the projects I worked on yesterday.  This is a complete CASE (Copy And Share Everything) of LeeAnn Greff's card here (Aug 22, 2011 post) that LeeAnn CASE'd from June Dunn.  I switched the Island Indigo card base for a Pool Party card base and changed the sentiment.  Otherwise, it's the same. 
The oval area was masked so the flower could be stamped with Versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder.  Pool Party ink was sponged on, then some Island Indigo around the flower.  A flower punch and a pearl was added. A sentiment from the A Word for You set completes the card.

I'm off and running.  Thanks for visiting today!  You're always welcome here.
