The Condo Association where we live are telling us that we cannot run a business in our home, so the COME STAMP WITH ME TUESDAY classes are canceled for now. I sure have enjoyed getting to spend time with you during this time. I laughed with some of you, cried with some of you and even prayed with some of you and I must say that this time has been precious.
So now what will I do? Well, I still love to stamp so I will still do my best to inspire you by sharing cards that I am making for my own personal use.
Yesterday I decided to use the designer card stock that came with TIN OF CARDS that was intended to cover the index cards for the tin. (You can kind of seeing this on the photo below in the tin that comes with the kit) Which, of course, I did not use for it's intended purpose!! LOL!! This paper has been sitting here for a VERY LONG TIME and so I thought now would be the perfect time to just play!
Here is what the TIN OF CARDS KIT looks like
You can get this coordinating stamp set to go with it
These are all of the cards that I was able to make with the Designer Paper that is included in the kit.
These first 4 cards I also used the extra stamp set from the April Paper Pumpkin Kit for the flowers and I used the French words that came in a previous Paper Pumpkin Kit that included 3 different languages because of the diverse countries that Stampin' Up! is in. These cards will be shipped up to Canada to my niece where I am sure she can make good use of them.
The strip of rhinestones was purchased at a local craft store in one of my weak moments (lol)
I only know one person who is not a fan of butterflies, but I think adding a butterfly to most anything makes it special. The colors on the stamped butterflies are Calypso Coral (stamped off) and Watermelon Wonder (full strength) and I used all 3 steps in the stamping. The vellum butterfly was cut from the FREE vellum paper stack we could get during Sale a bration.
This next one is a 3x3 of which I made 2.
The raindrop pattern of this paper made me think of Sympathy, Get Well or Thinking of You so I used the sentiment from Blessings From Heaven stamp set.
(this card was inspired by Jessica Taylor. I changed it up by adding the embossing on the card base.) I also made 2 of these (I had previously used one sheet of this paper on another project.)
This last card was inspired by Sandy Hancock
I am so thankful for all the fabulous ideas on Pinterest that we can copy and share, and change up to our own liking
Thanks for stopping by!
