Wedding Thank You's

So remember way back in May or June when I created my wedding announcements using MDS so I could make matching Thank You cards? Well, they are finally mailed out! Better late than never, right? I actually had the inside written out for all of them in mid-October, but didn't get around to finishing the front until last week.  The only stamping was the sentiment from Thank You Kindly. The colors are Basic Gray, Regal Rose, Elegant Eggplant, Marina Mist, and Whisper White.

Thanks for stopping by. I have officially decided that I'm done making Holiday cards for the season, but that doesn't mean I'm done sharing them with you. More tomorrow!

Sunny Fun Share

Here is a card that I started a while ago, but didn't really know how to finish. I had the popsicles stamped and colored and left them. Well, yesterday while going through my piles of cards to CASE, I found a card from one of the display boards at the Minneapolis Regional, that I thought would be the key to finishing off this card. I used Sunny Fun and Thank You Kindly. The main colors are Peach Parfait, Early Expresso, Wild Wasabi, Pacific Point, and Whisper White. Several other colors were used to color in image in.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your Sunday!

Thanks!

Thanks for all the nice comments and making the Royal Blog Tour such a success! I hope you enjoyed all the stops along the way. Later today I will be drawing for my blog candy and will notify the winner. With their permission, I will announce it on my blog too. Today I thought I'd share with you another card made with Circle Circus that didn't make the cut for the tour. The colors are Basic Gray, Basic Black, Whisper White and Going Gray. The sentitment is from Thank You Kindly.

Thanks again!

Day 9: Medallion Swap with baby-wipe technique tutorial

Here is a card that I made on behalf of someone for a swap that I held on SCS. The swaps were fantastic and maybe some day I'll take the time to take pictures and share them with you. Anyways, this card uses the baby wipe technique. This is where you use a babywipe colored with rinkers as your ink pad. It's okay if it a little dry, you can rewet it by spraying some water on it. To make my "ink pad" I used Green Galore, Pink Passion, and Bashful Blue reinkers and tried to create a target-like pattern. I then used this to ink up my Medallion stamp and stamped in on the desired size card stock. Instead of just adhering that to my card, I decided to cut it into strips and mix up the order of them before adhering to my card.

Hope you enjoy!

Stamp A Stack Day 3

Today I have another Snow Swirled card to share with you. I don't plan on having both at my Stamp A Stack, but I think I'm going to have problems picking which one to use, maybe you guys can help me.

Here is the Christmas card (I've actually shared this with you before, but here it is again as a refresher). Colors used were Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, and Bermuda Bay.

Here is the first "everyday" card that I designed, again using the same layout and Circle Circus and Thank You Kindly.

Again, trying to think outside of the box, I came up with this card, which I think I like better. It uses Fifth Avenue Floral.

Finally, here are the three together.

Stamp A Stack Day Two

Today, the cards that I'm going to be sharing again use the same supplies and similiar layout, or at least two of them do. I actually came up with two "everyday" cards after I tried to think outside the box and come up with a different layout from the Christmas card for the "everyday" layout. I don't think I'm a huge fan of the different layout though, but you can judge for yourself.

First here is the Christmas card, using Snow Swirled and Four the Holidays for the stamp sets. Colors are Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede and Whisper White.

Here is the first "everyday" card the I designed, using almost the exact layout and Circle Circus and Thank You Kindly stamp sets.

And then I decided that maybe I shouldn't make all the cards look alike. Just because they use the same supplies does not mean they need to have the same layout. Here came the challenge. Here is what I came up with using Wow Flowers and I think I still like the Circle Circus card better.
