Bunch of Tulips

As I watched the snow yesterday, I was thinking Spring when I made today's card.  The tulips are from the retired Stampin' Up set, Blessed Easter.  After stamping and embossing the image twice, the images were cut on the Scan N Cut.  The alcohol markers I used for the flowers match Melon Mambo almost exactly.  The scoring board lines (which you can barely see) add texture to the Melon Mambo cardstock.  Black and white checked ribbon is a nice contrast to the white and Melon Mambo, but the card still needed a little something.  Out came the little pearls.  Have a great day!

Red and White Love You

With Valentine's Day just a week away, I needed to make a few more so I can get them in the mail.  Today's card is quite simple and did not take a lot of time to create.  Once again, the heart die from Simon Says Stamp was put to good use.  The word "love" was cut using a die from Lawn Fawn.  The red checked ribbon is from Stampin' Up from many years ago.  I would say it has to be ten years old.  I liked that ribbon then and I still do.  Have a great day and be careful if you are out and about today!

Little Hummingbirds

Jennifer McGuire and Sandy Allnock both did posts using the Pretty Pink Posh Hummingbird Thanks stamp set which caught my attention.   I ordered the set without ordering the coordinating dies and thanks to the Scan N Cut, the little hummingbirds cut out perfectly.  Actually, I stamped six hummingbirds and all six cut perfectly.  I used Copic markers to color the hummingbirds to match Green Galore and Bermuda Bay cardstock.  My Favorite Things' Inside and Out Stitched Rectangle dies added nice detail to the white and Green Galore cardstock layers.  The sentiment is one of the sentiments in the Pretty Pink Posh stamp set, Everyday Greetings. Before adhering all of the elements on the white cardstock, I did ink the edges of the white cardstock. After adhering the little hearts, I just had to add a few sequins from Pretty Pink Posh's Mermaid Sequins mix (so pretty).  Have a great weekend and find yourself a little stampin' time!

Something Old

I did not post yesterday and I do not have a new card to post today. (That's because the card I did make for today really leaves a lot to be desired!) But I know that a few of you will be wondering if I am okay if I don't post for two days in a row.  So today, I am posting an old card that I thought was pretty when I made it and still think it is pretty.   And while listening to the weather forecast, warm wishes will be appreciated very soon!   Have a great day!
