Autumn Splendor and Grateful Greetings

I am invited to do a fall-themed card swap at the end of this week in Topeka with some other SU demos. It will be a lot of fun. This is my swap. I used Autumn Splendor (116503) and Grateful Greetings (116511) along with the new Elegant Soiree DSP (117163). I used the new distressing essentials kit (118762) to distress the card and Stampin' Pastels (120962) to lightly color in the tips of the leaves. Also used Rhinestone Jewels (119246) and the modern label punch (119849) and large oval punch 1 3/4" X 7/8" (119855). Colors used were Rich Razzleberry and Soft Suede. (Used Rich Razzleberry 5/8" grosgrain ribbon (119957). Enjoy!

Greeting Card Kids Christmas Card

Greeting Card Kids is probably one of my favorite stamp sets out the new catty. A person just can't help but love this little kids. It is available in wood mount 119887 and clear mount 120633). Also used Music Notes wheel (120327) which is also new. Cute and Curly stamp set (clear mount 120510 and wood mount 117014) was used as the sentiment. Used Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz cardstock. Watercolor crayons were used to color in the image with aqua painters. Almost forgot, I stamped the background with blushing bride ink with the Serene Snowflakes stamp set (115438). Thanks for looking!

Wicked Cool

I love the colors of Halloween. I am so glad SU is keeping Rich Razzleberry and bringing back Tangerine Tango. For this card I used the new Wicked Cool stamp set (118738 wood mount and 120600 clear mount), Sweet and Sour DSP (117390) and the new Bitty Bat Large (119279). I used Rich Razzleberry 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon (119957) and the new Basic Rhinestones (119246) for the bat's eyes to give the bats some sparkle and make them stand out. Enjoy!

Greeting Card Kids and Wicked Cool

I used Greeting Card Kids (wood mount 119887 and clear mount 120633) and Wicked Cool (118738 wood mount and 120600 clear mount) stamp sets for this Halloween card. Love these new sets! I used my aqua painters to color in the image with my watercolor crayons. I used styled Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware (112454) for the greeting. Colors used were: Tangerine Tango, Concord Grape and Pear Pizzazz. Also used dotted scallop ribbon border (119275). Black ribbon is retired from SU. Used chunky glitter with crystals effects.

Bouquet Bunch

This is a nice card to showcase the new scallop rectangle clearlit die (118872). I stamped images from the Bouquet Bunch stamp set (clear mount 120039 and wood mount 118529) from the Summer Mini catalog and watercolored them in with the watercolor crayons and aqua painters. It was easy to line up my images inside of the clear rectangle die before I cut out my scalloped square in the Big Shot. Also used the scallop trim border punch (118402). Sentiment is from Tiny Tags stamp set (wood mount 118091 and clear mount 118592). Thanks for looking!

Flower Girl and New In colors















Okay, I have been working on this layout for a couple of days and I keep getting interrupted by my children. That's okay, because I know I will miss having them around all the time when school starts. I don't know if I am completely done with these pages, but here they are for now. I used Broadsheet Alphabet (clear mount 120585 wood mount 119724) and the Ornate Blossom stamp (117094). I used Greenhouse Gala DSP (117167) again! I do have other new paper packs that I love...I will be getting to them soon. I used the new Blushing Bride 12 x 12 paper for my background. Almost forgot the scallop trim border punch (118402). I stamped Flower Girl with all the new In Colors. Still need to put my daughter's name and date on here. Might die cut some flowers and add them to the pages too. Thanks for looking! I added Floral Fusion die cut flowers (115969) and Swirls & Scribbles (113441).

Happy I Do Day














This was a fun scrapbook layout to do. I used Greenhouse Gala DSP (117167) and the new stamp set Word Play (clear mount 120651 and wood mount 120308). I also used Big Shot dies Flower Daises #2 (114520 and Top Note (113463). Also used Pear Pizazz, Peach Parfait, Real Red and Whisper White cardstock. I hope to scrapbook another page of my daughter's individual pictures as flower girl.
