Birthday Card

Well, today is moving day for my daughter, Rachel and Sarah.  Lots of mixed emotions on this day.  I will miss their comings and goings, but it will be nice to have the place to ourselves again plus my stamp room back!!  The movers just left for their new house, so I decided to post this cute birthday card I made for a special friend.  She loves anything to do with ice cream, so I thought this card would be perfect.

Recipe:

Stamps - Honeycomb Happiness, Gorgeous Grunge
Ink - Watermelon Wonder, Crumb Cake, Basic Black
Paper - Crumb Cake, Watermelon Wonder, Whisper White
Accessories - SU Aqua Painter
Embellishments - Enamel Shapes

After I cut my layers, I used my Gorgeous Grunge splatter stamp on the Whisper White CS using both of my colors, stamping off once.  Then I stamped my ice cream cone out and colored it in using my aqua painter.  I cut it out and placed in on the center of my card using a thick dimensional so it would stand out.  I stamped my sentiment near the bottom and placed my little hearts.  I love these shapes.

Then I adhered it to my layers and stamped my sentiment on the inside.  I really liked how it turned out.  Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Thanks for stopping by,
Nancy, Rachel & Sarah

Get Well Card

A friend of ours is going through a rough time following a cancer diagnosis and surgery, and I wanted to send him a card letting him know we are thinking about him.  I originally purchased the SU stamp set - Honeycomb Happiness - for the cute little chick.  Don't you hate it that you have to buy a complete stamp set for one stamp that you crave!!  Then I saw some cards on Pinterest made with the balloon and loved how they turned out.  I didn't have all the bells and whistles they used, so I made my own version.

Recipe:

Stamp Set - SU's Honeycomb Happiness
Paper - SU's Soft Sky, Whisper White, Black, Watermelon Wonder
Ink - Black Stazon
Accessories - Lots of Labels Framelits Dies, Honeycombs
Embellishments - Watermelon Wonder Ribbon, Dots

I really like how it turned out.  I love these little honeycombs, and hope it makes it through the mail.  We are getting freezing rain tonight and then tomorrow it is suppose to be close to 60 degrees!  Crazy weather.  Have a great weekend,

Thanks for stopping by,
