Creating Kindness Blog Hop - BIRTHDAY!

Boy am I longing for a little tropical relief in this middle of this freezing February. Maybe that’s why I crafted this birthday card with such a summery feel? Are you surviving your winter? I really need to see the sun!

I had a birthday last week. So many friends sent along lovely birthday cards. I am so touched by their friendship and really inspired by the beautiful cards that popped up in my mail. Birthdays are on the brain, which make’s the timing of this month’s CK theme perfect. The Creating Kindness crew are creating birthday cards!!! I always need a birthday card on hand. Hopefully this hop will provide you with tons of varied inspiration to get your birthday card ideas flowing.

There are so many fun NEW tools in the Occasion catalog but I choose to use some favorite “oldie” stamp sets that have been around a bit to create this juicy & refreshing birthday card. A full list of supplies can be found below.

Lemon Zest - Stamp Review Crew

Welcome to the Lemon Zest edition of Stamp Review Crew. If you are traveling in order you've just arrived from Mike's blog.

Sour and OH SO SWEET! Finally got around to playing with this set a little more. I've only used it once before and I'm not sure why. It's amazing, I love the images and sayings in this stamp set!

IMG_6125.jpg

About this card: I particularly love the background I was able to create with the lemon slice. You can recreate this look so easily.

1. Wet a piece of watercolor paper.
2. Ink the lemon slice from the set in Pineapple Punch ink and stamp onto the watercolor paper repeatedly. Watch the ink bleed and magic begin.
3. You can blend the ink further by adding more water with an aqua painter. Juicy and oh so good!

This card also features an outside and inside greeting. Super fun.  I sent this card to my Aunt along with a bunch of lemon drops. A fun summery treat to get in the mail.

Thanks so much for visiting. Next up is the talented Lou.

Birthday Backgrounds - TGIFC165 Inspiration Challenge

June 22, 2018
TGIFC165.jpg

Hi guys! Welcome back. Today we are sharing projects inspired from this cool lemonade stand for TGIF Challenges (#tgifc165). I rarely combine multiple stamp sets for a card but I just had to for this cute card. My card features Birthday Backgrounds, Coffee Cafe, and the Lemon Zest stamp sets.

I love a nice cold class of lemonade, especially pink lemonade. Lemonade reminds me of summer, a bright and cheery summer. The colors from this inspiration photo are also bright and cheery. Stampin' Up!'s new yellow, Pineapple Punch, was the perfect choice for this bright card.  Pineapple Punch makes these other SU colors (Coastal Cabana and Flirty Flamingo) appear neon!

Don't you just love this bright burst pattern in the background? It looks like exploding drips of lemonade. This image is from the Birthday Background stamp set. The cup, straw and ice cubes are from the Coffee Cafe set and the lemons and greetings are from the Lemon Zest stamp set.  Yum, yum.

Are you ready for more inspiration? Check out the TGIF Challenge blog and play along with us.

Lemons into Apples? Lemon Zest & Labeler Alphabet

June 22, 2017

Hooray!!! Today is the last day of school for my kids. I needed a few teacher cards to hand along side gifts. In looking through my current stamps I didn't have anything perfect for teachers, so ... when life gives you a Lemon stamp set, make apples ...

I made these cards using the Lemon Zest stamp set and Labeler alphabet.  Both sets allowed me to create a custom card perfect for my needs today. Super cute!  Bring on summer and the lemonade. .

This blue and purple winter card uses tidbits from the Calm & Bright kit. I used the negative shape from the fir die cut to create a stencil and layered from there. Blend, stencil, stamp. Colors are Highlander Heather, Cloud Cover, & Lost Lagoon. @global_design_project #gdp525 #stampinup #calmandbright
Masking and stamping! On this card I mask with tape, blend ink, then stamp, then stencil, and stamp again to create a layered scene. It’s so satisfying to remove the masking tape… always a fun reveal.

Sending Joy! I created this wintry scene using the Calm and Bright card kit. I love the look of white on white. I pulled in some gold embossing and Crumb Cake to balance out all that white. This CAS kit has tons of cute and tiny elements (yippee for tiny stamps) that are perfect for creating an adorable little holiday scene. 166461 Card created for @global_design_project BRRR theme. #gdp523 #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakingreels #madewithmine
