Sweet Stems Card

One more for today. I LOVE this card. Old olive is one of my favorite colors. I used the new Cottage Wall DSP and just love the old olive ribbon. I used the aquapainter and ink pads to paint the stem in Old Olive and the flower in Orchid Opulence (same as the paper behind it). You can do the same thing with a blender pen. I also used the same flower stamp and Versamark to stamp the background on the old olive paper. SUPPLIES

Upsy Daisy Birthday

Since it's a rainy day, I decided to do some stamping. I used the Upsy Daisy set to make this very pretty birthday card. I stamped the image on designer series paper and I like the way it looks. The sentiment is also from this set. I used the tag corner punch so I could customize the size of the "tag" and layered white on brown. I made the hole for the ribbon with the horizontal slot punch.

Fun & Fast Notes

This card is made using a stamp from the Fun and Fast notes set. I love the green/yellow combination (Old Olive and So Saffron). The sentiment is from the Upsy Daisy set. Once again, I used the blender pen with the ink pads to color in the flowers and pot. The designer series paper (DSP) is from free paper I got in the spring during Sale-a-bration and is also So Saffron.SUPPLIES
