Blog Candy and Baby Shower Card

**Edited: Blog Tour info is no longer needed, but your favorite card from tour is. If you've already entered with the Blog Tour info, you're still eligible. AND if I hit 2000 hits, another blog candy will be available next week!

It's time for blog candy! First of all, I want to thank all of you for stopping by on the Blog Tour. I had over 800 hits! In honor of the stamp set that I featured, the blog candy is going to be the stamp set, Cheers to You. I will try to get a picture up later, but you can get a good idea of what the set is by looking at my samples here. This will run until the end of this week and I will use the random number generator to pick the winner. Please leave a comment on your favorite card and a way for me to contact you if you're the winner. And sorry, this is only available to US residence. BUT for those of you not in the US, I will offer you the chance to win a set of cards that I made for the tour. Please note that you are out of the country in your comment.

Also, I finally updated the picture using the Fifth Avenue Floral and watercolor technique here to include the picture using glossy paper.

Finally, a quick sample that I made in 10 minutes for leaving for work. This is a baby shower card for my supervisor that is having a second girl. The stamp sets are Nursery Necessities and Goody Goody Gumdrops. Paper: Pink Pirouette, Rose Red, Designer Sampler II, Whisper White, and Basic Black. It's not exactly what I had in mind and I'm not sure I like it that much, but it serves it's purpose.

This stop features the Cheers to You stamp set. At first I didn't see what the big deal of this stamp set was, but once I got to using it, I was amazed at the versitility of it!


The first sample is with the Daiquiri stamp, along with Pretty in Pink, Real Red, and Whisper White cardstock, Raspberry Tart DSP, Basic Black ink, Pretty In Pink and Real Red Stamp 'N Write markers, and the keynote punch and 1/4" grosgrain white ribbon.


The next uses the Margarita glass stamp. The paper includes Pink Piroquette, and Whisper White and Bella Rose DSP. The accessories used were the circle punches, designer label from the hodge podge hardware and striped Riding Hood Red Ribbon.


Next up is the Martini glass and the square scalloped punched pieced to frame the 1 1/4" square punch. Paper: Very Vanilla, Real Red, and Old Olive; Punches: Squared Scallop, 1 1/4" square punch, and scalloped border; Accessories: Real Red 1/4" grosgrain ribbon.


And last but not least, my favorite card, a card with the beer mug. And not because I like beer, because actually I hate beer. Anyways, this card used More Mustard, Basic Black, Going Gray, and Whisper White cardstock. Accessories included the circle punches, white gel pen, and gingham ribbon.
