Awesome Flower Patch

Hi there and happy Friday!  Today I'm back with another Hostess Club card that the ladies made at our meeting on Tuesday.  I pretty much CASE'd Julie Pitta's card that was posted on her blog.  You can see a sample here.  (Scroll down to Aug 30th post.)   Love the color combination of Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey!  They are two of the five new In Colors that Stampin' Up! came out with this year.  Love the ribbon, too.  It's so soft and pliable - makes bow making (or knots) a snap.

Flower Patch

Hi there and happy Labor Day!  Hope you've been enjoying your long weekend.  Mine has been pretty lowkey but that's OK.
Today's card was inspired by one pinned on Pinterest, which became one of the cards that the Hostess Club members made.  They loved it.  It was easy to assemble once all the pieces were stamped and cut out with the coordinating Framelits.  Gotta love that!   (Tip for using photopolymer stamps: Use a foam mat under your project when stamping.  This will ensure more even coverage of the ink. )
That's it for today.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend and thank you for coming by!

From the Flower Patch

Hi there!  Didn't get a chance to post yesterday since it was our Card Buffet.  Thank you ladies for a wonderful day!  So, today I have one of the samples from our Card Buffet display board using the photopolymer set, Flower Patch.  The Flower Fair Framelits coordinate with this set.  Love that!  To achieve the partially embossed background, only a portion of the cardstock (about two thirds) was placed in the folder.  Stampin' Up!s Simply Scored Scoring Tool was used for the horizontal lines.  Be sure to lay your focal piece wrong side up on the score board, if you want the raised lines to show on the front.  Another tip, this time for stamping with photopolymer stamps, is to have a foam mat under your cardstock when stamping.  This will help to attain even coverage of the ink. 

Must take the granddog for a walk.  Thank you so much for visiting today!

Customer Thank You

Hi there!  Here is a sample of the 3x3 thank you note that was slipped into each customer's order bag.  It is made from the Flower Patch stamp set and Flower Fair Framelits Dies by Stampin' Up!.  Love it when there's a die that coordinates with the stamps.  (These can be purchased in a bundle at a 15% discount or FREE if you purchase a Big Shot this month.)   The sentiment is from Work of Art. 

Must run - it's a busy day today.  Thanks for stopping in today!
