Watercolor Happy

Hi there and happy Friday!  Quick post so I can finish a few things around here before heading out early to our Demonstrator holiday party that Sally Nusbaum has organized for this evening!  Woo Hoo!
So, here is another card using a portion of the watercolor background made with the Decorative Dots embossing folder.  You can see how that was done HERE.  The sentiment from the Yippee-Skippee! stamp set by Stampin' Up! is layered onto Pool Party and Pumpkin Pie mats cut out with the Deco Label Framelits.  A Pumpkin Pie sawtooth border strip was made using the Finishing Touches Edgelit.  The Rich Razzelberry card base contrasts nicely with all the colors (and a color that has been neglected lately).  A bit of Pool Party 1/4" Cotton Ribbon finishes off the card.  This ribbon is really nice to work with, too!

Must get going.  Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for stopping in today!

Under the Sea

Hi there and happy Friday!  My apologies for not posting yesterday - just ran out of time.  I'm back with one of the numerous swaps Sally Nusbaum shared with us when she returned from the Stampin' Up! Convention.  What you can't tell from the picture, is that the octopus travels around the circular channel.  Cool, huh?  Most of the stamped images are from Sea Street.  The sentiment is from the Yippee-Skippee set.  Lullaby Designer Series Paper was used for the semi-circle of gold fish (heat embossed with gold embossing powder) and for the "sand".  A very cute and creative card! 

Must pack up for our Card Buffet tomorrow before I pick up the granddaughter for the weekend later this afternoon!  Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for stopping in today!
