Stamping Expressions

A State of Bliss!

 

BLISS - "utter joy or contentment."  That's what I feel when I am creating! There are a lot of pieces to this card, which I didn't think too much about until I decided to make it for a recent demo swap!  This is one of the Sale-a-bration sets, which are now available.  I used some of the DSP in the Occassions Mini called First Edition and stamped the swirly image over it in Early Expresso and Soft Suede.  I used Marina Mist and Old Olive markers to color "bliss" and the flower. The other flowers are stamped in Expresso from the Punch Potpourri hostess set,  which coordinates with the Boho Blossoms punch. The leaves are from the Two Step Bird punch.   Happy Stamping!

XOX

 When I was cleaning out a closet I found a bunch of these magnetic frame stands which even came with the little glitter hearts!  All I did was trace it on a piece of Love Impressions DSP, cut it out, and stuck it on with some sticky tape.  I added the definition from the Define Your Life set.  These are going to make some great little gifts - new baby, birthday, mother's day!  I'm going through my paper stash now!  Happy Stamping!  

Get Well Wishes

I made this card for my mother who is having surgery this morning and I can't be there.  I hope to fly home soon and surprise her but for now this will have to do!   I used a blender pen and ink to color the image, which is from the Fun and Fast Notes set.  Happy Stamping!

Lots of Kisses

It snowed all day yesterday and it was the perfect time to clean out my stamping closet!  I found a bunch of these Starbucks Frappucino bottles that I was saving for something.  This makes a fast and easy gift and now I'm going to have to get different candy for the other bottles!

XOXO

First Edition Elements

Happy New Year to all!   Since I hadn't done much stamping for a couple of weeks I turned to this Mojo Monday sketch for inspiration. This is a 5" square card with the newsprint squares being 2".  I used a blender pen and Marina Mist, Not Quite Navy, and Old Olive inks to color the image from Elements of Style. The newsprint is called First Edition Designer Series Paper, which is in the new Occassions Mini on page 25!  Happy Stamping!
