Wednesday ....Cards I Love

Sign up to follow my blog and leave me a comment telling me something you like about my blog and something you would like to see more of!

I will put all of the followers with comments into a random drawing for the blog candy. 

Be sure you are following my blog and have left a comment (what you like/what you want to see more of) between Friday, March 16 and Thursday, March 22.

I will announce the winner on Friday, March 23rd!

This probably should have been a Use It UP! Friday card, because the DSP and sentiment are retired product. I have a few FLAT cards for the next couple of Fridays, so I am putting this one on Wednesday. I do love this combination of colors, I find it soothing.

I am working on a special order of cards, mostly sympathy, so you will continue to see them this week and into next week. 

Supplies:

• Not Quite Navy CS, Very Vanilla CS
• Because I Care stamp set
• Not Quite Navy ink pad
• Scallop Edge Border Punch, Scallop Oval Punch, Oval Punch, Seam Binding Ribbon

Use It UP! Friday

How much did I love Sale-a-Bration's Bliss Stamp Set? I have no words.
Here is a little creation with one of the best stamp sets ever.....if you like this sort of look.....if you don't, then I suppose you totally disagree on Bliss being one of the best stamp sets ever. I do rank it right up there with some of my favorites like Wonderful Wings, Knobbly Gnomes, Lovely as a Tree...

Anyway...

Thursday . . . .

I know I am a broken record this week, but I had a hard time making cards. This one I really like. The technique? I created my own printed paper. I stamped and colored the background paper. I really like the way it turned out. It isn't a quick card, but I wasn't in a rush to figure out the next card, so this was a perfect project for me.

I used:
Paper: Basic Black CS #121045, Whisper White CS #100730
Stamps: Because I Care -hostess
Ink: Bashful Blue #105111, Perfect Plum #100035, Pear Pizzazz #119801, Blender Pen #102845
Other: Striped Ribbon #115615, brads #119736
