Retiring Favorites

I'm stamping and enjoying some favorites before they are gone.  I highly recommend this "Timeless Elegance" Designer Series Paper.  The prints coordinate beautifully in many cards designs.  All products used in this post are listed at the end.

Blushing Bride adds a rosy touch to this design.

Pool Party is a fun splash of highlight to the flowers and sparkle of the ribbon.

Even more Pool Party on this card!

Mixed with 2014-2016 In colors is simple and fun. 

"Going Places" Designer Series Paper is also retiring and makes great backgrounds with the "Big News" stamps for my graduation cards.  

I will always love this combination of prints, it is stunning!

Each of these products will link you to my online store. Then you can make these projects at your home!  Thank you for shopping with me.

Tea Party Invitation Final

I was honored to prepare designs for a custom order of invitations for a tea party.  The hostess shared her vision for this event and her heart for hospitality to her guests.  These are the 5 designs I made for her to select from for her invitations.

Card #1

 Card #2

Card #3

Card #4

 Card #5

So which card is your favorite pick?  

I had fun making these and playing with several of my favorite product lines.  My customer chose card #5 so I happily created a set of them for her.  It was a pleasure to know that my cards would set the tone as the invitation for her special event.

I hope you will continue following me and my stamping adventures on this blog, Pinterest, Facebook, and Instagram!  Catch the links at the top to join me in each of these social media venues.

Thank you for joining my fun, I look forward to your comments! 

In Colors 2015-2017, Catalog and Stamp Sneak Peek

Are you ready for fresh new colors and tools?  The new catalog is beautiful and has so many wonderful new stamp designs.  See all those pages I have flagged?  Lots of great products on my wish list for when orders open on June 2!  Let me know if you want a new catalog.

  Each year we get a new set of "In" colors that are fresh and on trend in fashion and decor.  I used the new stamp set "You've Got This" to display the new colors and a few loved, older colors.  This is Watermelon Wonder with Tip Top Taupe.

  

Cucumber Crush and Tip Top Taupe.

Delightful Dijon layered with Tip Top Taupe and the flower stamped on Vellum.  Sadly I did not have success with glue dots under my vellum.

Mint Macaron pronounced ("ron" NOT "roon"  http://www.mrmacaron.com/history/).

And here is Tip Top Taupe with Very Vanilla.

But these, below, are my most favorite designs with the new stamp set.  

Cucumber Crush paper and ribbon.

Delightful Dijon and Tip Top Taupe.

Calypso Coral and Tip Top Taupe.

Tip Top Taupe and Very Vanilla with stunning pearls - LOVE this!

Melon Mambo, Crystal Effects and Tip Top Taupe.

 Watermelon Wonder and Tip Top Taupe.

Mint Macaron paper and ribbon.  I used Memento black ink on Vellum.  I love this card design!

Sahara Sand, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizazz.

I love using this as an interior sentiment.

Blackberry Bliss, Sahara Sand, Pear Pizazz are such an elegant combination.

The interior sentiment is stunning with the lace.

What do you think of the new In Colors and "You've Got This" stamp set?  Which card designs are your favorite?  I would love to send you a new catalog - just let me know!

Thank you for your comments and orders!
