Blended Bloom

Hi there!  Today was our Card Buffet and we had a good turnout.  We truly appreciate the support of our awesome customers/friends!  Thank you so much ladies!

Above is another Stampin' Up! Blended Bloom card and colored with Coastal Cabana Blendabilities. A sliver of Daffodil Delight cardstock peeks out from underneath the Coastal Cabana mat, which helps to tie in the Daffodil Delight flower center and the Seam Binding ribbon.

That's it for now.  Hope the rest of your day/evening is a good one and thank you so much for stopping in for a look!

Moonlight Blended Bloom

Hi there!  Are you gearing up for the weekend?  It will be a busy one for us.  A lot of family time since our granddaughter's birthday/party is Saturday and Father's Day is Sunday.  Need to run a bunch of errands today and tomorrow, so let's get to the card.  It is another Blended Bloom stamped image colored with Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie Blendabilities (Stampin' Up!s alcohol based markers).  The top layer was cut out from a second flower and popped up on Dimensionals.  I really like the way it looks.  A strip of Moonlight DSP (new in the 2014-15 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog) and luscious Blackberry Bliss 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon finish off the card.

Must head out now - thanks for stopping in for a visit today!

Blended Bloom

Hi there and happy Friday!  Do you have plans for this long, holiday weekend?  My plan is to play in my stamp room - maybe even tidy it up a bit. We'll see how that goes! :)  The above card is one that I played around with between projects (that can't be shared just yet) using the Pumpkin and Daffodil Delight Stampin' Up! Blendabilities.  Teeny Tiny Wishes was used for the sentiment and punched out with the Word Window punch.  A Daffodil Delight layer for the sentiment was punched from the Modern Label punch.  A bit of scoring to the sides of the background panel and some Chevron ribbon added the finishing touches.

Time to get back to my projects and cleaning.  Wishing you a safe and fun Memorial Day weekend!  Thank you for stopping in for a peek today!

Sneak Peek - Blended Bloom

Hi there!  Today I have a sneak peek of a stamp that will be available in the Stampin' Up! 2014-15 Annual Catalog, called Blended Bloom.  This flower is such a great image to use with the Blendabilities.  Do you think they planned that? :)  Coastal Cabana Blendabilities were used here, as well as the Daffodil Delight set for the center of the flower.  But wait - there's more!  You can also use Blendabilities to color ribbon!  I didn't have any Coastal Cabana ribbon or Baker's Twine so I ran the marker (lightest hue) down the length of some retiring Whisper White taffeta ribbon.  Love how it turned out and it dried super fast!  That's because these markers are alcohol based.  The sentiment is from the Wetlands stamp set.  (One of my fav's!)
