Love is in the Air-Blog Hop

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and that means Love is in the Air. You see it at stores, television ads and on all the shows but Love doesn't need to just be in the Air during Valentine's Day it should be in the air all the time. Today our designers have some wonderful projects to share with you. I kept my card clean and simple with Whisper White Card Stock, Real Red Ink and Basic Grey Ink, Basic Black Twine and the Bloomin' Love Stamp Set with the coordinating Bloomin' Heart Thinlits. I hope you enjoy all the cards in the hop and that you take the time to leave a little love to our design team.

My favorite Accessory

So today we were asked to use our favorite accessory on our project well that was an easy decision for me because I love our Rhinestone Basic Jewels. They are always out on my table and I use them on almost all my projects. Why? I guess I just like bling. My card is fairly simple as it comes from the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit. This kit has everything you need to make the cards, 20 in all but I stepped it up just a bit by adding the rhinestones. There are sequins in the kit but I opted to save those for another project. Be sure and check out the other designers at SSINKspiration and thank you for stopping by!

 

Christmas in July

 

Are you ready for Christmas Cards? Well considering it takes me longer each year to get mine done I really should start now with the making process but what fun would that be. Now if you are the type to plan ahead then be sure and check out the cards today on our Blog. This card uses a lot of products that were carried over from the previous catalog and it is a lot of cutting but I love the results. Supplies used: Real Red, Whisper White and Basic Black Card Stock, Holly Jolly Greetings Stamp Set, Layering Circles Framelits, Christmas Greetings Thinlits, Real Red Glimmer Paper, Real Red Ink Pad, Basic Rhinestones, Woodland Embossing folder.

 

May Friday Favorite

Hello and welcome to another Friday Favorites. Today I want to share a favorite stamp set of mine with you: Another Thank you Stamp Set. I love all the thank you sentiments and let's face it we can never have to many thank you cards. I used a note card for my base and decided to use one of my favorite soon to be retired colors Blackberry Bliss to stamp and also for card stock accents. I used the Bitty Butterfly, Silver Ribbon and some Basic Rhinestones to make this simple yet elegant card. I almost forgot the doily behind the sentiment which was cut out with the Circle framelit. I could make this in all the In Colors for variety and they would make a great gift for a teacher, graduate or just a friend. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy your weekend!

 

Friday Favorites

It is time for Friday Favorites and mine is the Rose Garden Thinlits Dies that I showed you yesterday. Today I decided to make two more cards with the same stamp set and basic supplies but with a different look. I also tried to showcase a few more of the sentiments that come with the Rose Wonder Stamp Set. The first card uses Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive. I cut the rose from Whisper White Card Stock and then sponged over the top and filled in the thinlit with some color. I added the sentiment which will be perfect for any upcoming weddings I might have this summer.

 

 

My second card uses the flower frame but instead of using the frame on the card I used it to made a stencil and sponged the Blackberry Bliss to created the flower image. The sentiment is also from the same set. I added just a bit of ribbon. The colors on this card are Blackberry Bliss and Soft Sky. If you haven't taken the time to look at the Rose Wonder Stamp Set and the Rose Garden Thinlits Dies then I urge you to do so because they are well worth the money.

 

 

 

Rose Garden Thinlits

Have you ever wondered why you waited so long to purchase something after you use it? That is the way I feel about the Rose Garden Thinlits Die and the Rose Wonder Stamp Set. I used the retiring Blackberry Bliss Card Stock with Soft Sky and Old Olive. Since I needed a framelit to go with the sentiment I pulled out the Deco Labels Set. I love the sparkle from the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush and the Basic Rhinestone. My day job is at a church and the Rose Wonder Stamp Set is perfect to have to send out cards.

Shimmer and Shine

Today is the last day to join on Sale-a-bration so I wanted to share this card for with you that uses the Just for you Stamp Set. I wanted to play along with the Shimmer and Sparkle theme for the SSINKspiration Blog Post today so I created a fun polka dot background with Glimmer Paper, the Polka Dot Stencil and Bermuda Bay Ink. I added Watermelon Wonder for a fun spring feel and used a few punches to finish off the card. I will retake the picture later today but this cloudy morning did nothing for picture taking. If you still need to place your Sale-a-bration order you can do so online or by contacting me. Thanks for stopping by.

Still Time to Sale-a-brate

There is still a bit of time to Sale-a-brate but don't delay as time will soon run out. I was inkspired today by the Monday Mystery challenge to make this card with the Party Pants Stamp Set that you can get for Free with a $50 order. I used Pool Party, Soft Sky and Bermuda Bay to make an ombre card. I also added just a touch of a doily and Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine. There are so many sentiments in this stamp set that I could use this same layout and make a card for almost every occasion. Be sure and check out the rest of the cards on the SSINKspiration Blog.
