Friends Like You

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the last alternate card project I created using the January 'I'll Bee Yours' Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......
 
 This card just makes me HAPPY!!!
 
I started this card off with a Mint Macaron picture frame created from the 'Stitched Rectangles Dies'.
 
I used the 'Positive Thoughts' set to stamp my sentiment ..... And I used Rococo Rose ink to stamp that sentiment.
  
The three Rococo Rose hearts were included in the kit ...... And all I did was arrange those around the front of my card.
 Just crazy about the way this card turned out.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Macaron Flowers

Happy Thursday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Tag Thursday.  Today, I will feature a tag I created and show you how easy it is to use minimal supplies to create a SUPER PRETTY TAG.  Now that you have the details for my Tag Thursday creation for this week ........ Let's jump right in with my tag share for today........
 
 Who wouldn't LOVE receiving this pretty tag.
 
I started out by stamping my sentiment from the 'Beautifully Braided' set along the right hand edge of my Whisper White tag.
 
Next.....I punched out three flowers from the 'Peaceful Poppies Elements' and using my 'Mint Macaron and Old Olive Stampin' Blends' to color in those elements
After I had all the elements colored in ...... I added a Stampin' Dimensional to the back and arranged them onto my tag.
 
To finish off my tag ..... I added some new 'Mint Macaron Sheer Linen Ribbon' to the top and called this tag done.
 
Can you even image this in some of the other pretty colors available in the Stampin' UP! color families.  You can be sure that I will be making a pretty pink one of these tags soon.

Looking for a FAST & EASY kind of card?????
Check out this BEAUTIFUL card you can create with some FREE Sale-a-Bration product.
 
I used the FREE Sale-a-Bration 'Thoughtful Blooms' set to stamp my sentiment in the lower right hand corner of my Whisper White panel.
 
Next......I used the 'Thoughtful Blooms' set to stamp my Pear Pizzazz trail of scrolling leaf images on the left hand side of that Whisper White panel......
 
And then grabbed the 'Small Bloom Punch' to crop out my flower pieces.
 
My Highland Heather Stampin' Write Marker was used to create a bunch of trailing trio dots around the front of my card.
 
And that's all it took my friends to create this PRETTY card.

Tulip Card Upgrade

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!
Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but I added a couple additional products found in the 2020 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog to bring this card up to the next stamping level.
 
Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the TOP.....
And my Mix-It-UP! Monday card for today on the BOTTOM.....
 
If my card share for yesterday didn't fill your heart with Spring ....... Then my card share for today will certainly fill that spot.
 
My first upgrade was changing my card base from Calypso Coral to Whisper White.  I also changed up the orientation for my Mix-It-UP! Monday version to a landscape style card.  I added my 'Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper' to the bottom section of my base card......And finished that off with a thin Calypso Coral piece across the top edge of the DSP.
 
I used the same 'Timeless Tulip' set for my sentiment.....
 
 Along with stamping the tulips from that 'Timeless Tulip' set.
 
I arranged my trio of tulips onto the 'Layering Circles Dies' ....... And finished that off with a pretty 'Linen Thread' bow.
Two SUPER PRETTY Spring style cards.....
Do you have a favorite????? 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Tulip Card

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends
Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2020 Stampin' UP! Mini Catalog.  This card uses several products from that new catalog ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........
 
This card just fills my heart with Spring.
 
I started this card off with a Calypso Coral base card ....... And added a panel of the 'Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper' to half of that base card.
 
I cropped out a 'Heirloom Frames' oval die-cut piece and began building my cluster of pretty tulips.
 
My three tulips were stamped from the 'Timeless Tulips' set.....And I cropped those out with the help of the coordinating 'Tulip Builder Punch'.
 
I used the same 'Timeless Tulips' set to stamp my sentiment ...... And framed it out with the 'Classic Label Punch' and 'Ornate Framed Dies'.
 
Just couldn't be happier with the way this card turned out.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

3 Heart Card

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!
My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the project I created using the January 'I'll Bee Yours' Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......
 
 I have to admit ...... I'm crazy about the way this card turned out.
 
I used the three Highland Heather hearts that were included in my January kit ....... And added a punched out Highland Heather heart behind each heart with the help of my new 'Heart Punch Pack'.
 
On the solid Highland Heather heart.......I added a sweet sentiment with the help of my 1" Circle Punch.
 
And to finish off my card.......I added some 'Gorgeous Grape 1/4" Mini Striped Ribbon' to the top.
 
 So tell me friends.......
Don't you just love how this card turned out.
