Just a quick post this morning. I created this card for the Verve May 2018 Inspirational Challenge. I'm not one who likes the color pink all that much, even though I have 4 daughters and 7 granddaughters. Go figure...

PRODUCTS USED:

Verve stamp
SU Birthday Bouquet DSP
SU Blushing Bride card stock
SU Mossy Meadow Ink
Retired edge embossing folder by SU
SU Triple Tag Punch

Have a wonderful productive, blessed and crafty day!

Waterfront Cards


Today I got another chance to play around with the Waterfront Stamp by SU. Both were inspired by different demonstrators, Akemi Geary and Mary Brown. Thanks ladies for the inspiration!



I really like both of them for different reasons. The top one is using the True Gentleman DSP, which I love for the men in my life and it's such a clean and simple card. Got to love those. The bottom one is being used for a young man who lives in Sarasota, FL and loves the beach.  Sand, water, and palm trees , what could be better!

I did have a learning curve using this set, especially with the beach scene. Eventually after 3or 4 tries :{ I was happy with the end results. This set is owned by a fellow stamper and friend of mine,Vicki. Thanks Vicki! This will be on loan for a little longer so I can try my hand at more cards using this set. I'm looking through Pinterest seeing what will get my creative juices flowing.

PRODUCTS USED:

SU Waterfront stamp, retired SAB stamp,Big Day
SU Inks, Tranquil Tide, Soft Suede, Night of Navy, Crumb Cake, Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, Memento Black
SU Stitched Oval (large) Oval Scallop, Seaside Textured Embossing Folder

That's it for today. Have a wonderful one and I hope you have a chance to do something you LOVE!

Cricut Rainbow Birthday Card Annabelle



Annabelle and I 
Last Saturday my granddaughter Annabelle celebrated her 3rd. birthday with a Troll inspired party. Her mama decorated one of the walls in her family room with balloons representing a rainbow. I created the card above using my Cricut Explore using an image from Create a Critter and some SU products.

Make it a great day!
