Father's Day Blog Hop

 

Welcome to today's blog hop - celebrating Father's Day and all the amazing men in our lives! I fell in love with the new Waterfront Retreat Suite in the new Mid-Year catalog - Have you seen it all?? The beautiful DSP really helps set the mood for this card. I have lots of men in my real life - hubby, 2 sons, lots of brothers and brother-in-laws...so I am always in need of masculine birthday cards!
I did some monochrome stamping (same color ink on matching paper) for the chair, book and cup allows for a wonderful focal point image for my card. Another trick is using the 12x12 two-tone cardstock to allow for the "masculine" flip-flops - you automatically get 2 colors of cardstock. I am really enjoying this option on my cards.
Hop along for a chance to win this fun kit - make sure to leave your name!
Congratulations to last month's winner Susan

Mothers Day Blog Hop

Welcome to today's blog hop - celebrating Mother's Day and all the amazing women in our lives! I fell in love with the new Lily of the Valley set in the upcoming catalog - I can't wait for you all to see it. While the focal point flowers look fancy they were very easy to make with very simple coloring on Basic White die cuts.
I used Pecan Pie Blends on the stems and a squiggle of Pretty Peacock and Lemon Lime Twist on each little buttercup flower. The leaves were cut from Lemon Lime Twist and Garden Green. These are some of the colors featured in the gorgeous DSP that is featured in the Valley in Bloom DSP.
I also created the background with the new 3D Embossing Folder - Floral Spray. I used the 12" x 12" Coastal Cabana I stamped the sentiment and cut the labels from Sweet Words & Labels Dies that coordinate with the new Silly Old Bear online exclusives set - just wait till you see how beautiful this suite is! I'll be posting some cards soon that I have been playing with all the different elements.
Look at all the pretty new goodies
and the beautiful new DSP
