Sweet Strawberries

Loving this fresh adorable bundle, Sweet Strawberry. It’s easy to create a dimensional look and the cards are perfect for the season. I really like stamping the strawberries onto petal pink card stock in the poppy parade ink. The punch makes it so easy to make a few strawberries at a time. I found stamping the images I wanted on a card stock strip and then punching them down the line worked well.  Supplies Stamp set : Sweet Strawberries Ink : poppy parade, granny apple green, balmy blue and soft sea foam Paper : poppy parade, petal pink, granny apple green, balmy blue, soft sea foam and basic white card stock Accessories : gold hoops, basic rhinestones, gold glitter enamel dots, crinkled seam binding, white bakers twine, polka dot tulle ribbon, Strawberry builder punch, Lovely Labels pick a punch and stitched so sweetly dies The stamp set has cute wording and great images and when you buy the bundle you get 10% off!

Lovely Honey Bee

This set is so beautiful! I can’t stop playing with it! I saw this fun fold posted by Cindee Wilkinson. The top panel is tucked into the top right corner. The beehive was looking a little plain so I used the “kiss” method (?) and got the patterned look. The gold glimmer dots are from the “Christmastime is Here” bundle that was released last October and I was able to order more yesterday. They go great with the Honey Bee set. Bee sure to check out my upcoming class! Happy Stampin’ Tricia Hicks

Darling Label set

I really love the versatility of this set. Its so easy to create fun and useful cards, tags and gifts. The boxed set comes with two ink spots, a block, stamp set and matching punch. I matched this with the Tea Room dsp, a specialty paper with 24 sheets. The layers are created with punches, stitched shapes and layering squares framelits. Because the envelopes are quite snug, you want to keep your layers flat, I only used one layer of dimentionals per card. Happy Stampin, Tricia

Welcome!

Hello! It's been a while since I have been here to share. Not that I haven't been making cards though. So, here is a card I made for a recent Stamp Club. It features new products from the 2018-2019 Catalog. The first card here uses lots of layers. I love the look and it's an easy way to step up a card. You can easily make this a clean and simple card by removing the base layers. The beautiful paper is the Tea Room specialty DSP (146894). It is a thinner paper and good for layers and envelopes. You get 24 sheets in this package, 4 each of 6 double sided sheets, it's a great value. I highly recommend it. I also want to point out the Polka Dot Tulle ribbon (146912), love this! It is so easy to use and to tie and it add such a dainty look to your cards. A few other elements to the card that I want to mention, the Polka Dot basics embossing folder (143709) to add some texture, and the Pearlized Doilies (146936) because they are pretty. The stamp set I used is a hostess
