Colorful Cake Celebrations

The fun color challenges continue with the latest Hand Stamped Sentiments Color Challenge.  These colors make me happy...especially during the dreary days of winter!

I finally got to play with the Online Exclusives Cake Celebrations bundle.  I love this cake!

I die cut both layers from Basic Beige, stamping the layers of frosting in the same color.  Each layer was topped with Very Vanilla...quite fitting for a cake!

I stamped the flowers in the challenge colors of Highland Heather, Petunia Pop and Lemon Lime Twist.  I randomly stamped Celebrate in Highland Heather, along with some Petunia Pop starbursts.

I tend to create a lot of birthday cards this time of year to try to stay ahead.  I will be using this bundle again for sure!

Happy Stamping!

Simply Ready for Zinnias

We're back with another Monday Montage Blog Hop!  Enjoy the full circle of incredible creations from all of our talented stampers!

My spring flower seeds all arrived this week and I can not wait to get them started and in the ground!  I can't wait to see all of the beautiful zinnias I have this year!

While I wait for warmer weather, I will enjoy the beauty of the Flowering Zinnias Suite Collection. (This beautiful collection will be available in the Online Exclusives beginning March 5th!) The stamped images and beautiful colors in the DSP will make you feel like you are walking though the most amazing flower farm!

I needed a little color therapy this weekend and these beautiful blooms did not disappoint.  I colored the flowers in shades of Calypso Coral and Petal Pink with Mossy Meadow and Old Olive leaves.  Pool Party filled in the rest of the space, making the flowers look like they are floating in a pool of water.  A Petal Pink card base with the leafy pattern of DSP peeking out from behind the flowers was a little out of my crafting comfort zone, but I love how it all worked together.  And this sentiment is so good...flowers that you can send that will last forever!

Next up is a bright little bouquet of flowers for the sweetest birthday wish! It was so much fun mixing these patterns of DSP in with the Melon Mambo, Flirty Flamingo and Daffodil Delight zinnia's. 

If you have been loving the fun variety of Adhesive-Backed Sequins Stampin' Up! has had lately, you're going to have another to add to your collection!  These Shiny Sequins are amazing!  Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lolly, Mellon Mambo and Lemon Lime Twist are the perfect colors of summer!

Keep on hopping and see what Cathy has to share with us!

Happy Stamping!

 

Simply Sparkling Birthday

It's time for another Monday Montage Blog Hop!

I finally had the chance to play with some of the new stamp sets that arrive a few weeks ago.  My Christmas creations kind of made everything else take a back seat, but not any more!

Simply Sparkling Bundle is a recent addition to the Online Exclusives and it is so much fun! The possibilities are endless with these cans of bubbly.  And when you add some of the Holographic Specialty Paper, they look like real soda cans.

Do you spy the fun bubble dies?  They are so awesome, especially with the addition of some stamped bubbles. Parakeet Party, Calypso Coral and Coastal Cabana seemed like the perfect colors for an extra bubble birthday wish.  The black and white Delightfully Eclectic DSP made the bright colors pop even more!

Keep on hopping along to see what the rest of my Monday Montage friends have to share with us today!

Fluffiest Friends

Happy Tuesday friends! Who is ready for an all new Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge this week?!?

I just got the Fluffiest Friends stamp set as part of the Online Exclusives pre-order and these fluffy little critters were perfect for this weeks sketch!

All of these adorable furry friends are so cute, but the kitty is my favorite!  It reminds me of the kitty we used to have! The polka dot pattern from the 3D Essentials Embossing folders gave the perfect amount of texture for these sweet and simple cards.

I couldn't color just one friend though...I had to color them all! Take a look at how cute they all are!

I'm only missing the big fluffy bear with the honey pot.  Stay tuned for that one...I have plans for that bear!

Happy Stamping!

Hello, Irresistible Blooms

Hooray, it's Friday!  Not only have we almost made it to the weekend, but it's also time for an all new TGIF Challenges Sketch Challenge!

My favorite delivery driver delivered a box full of new goodies last night, including the beautiful Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection that I was able to pre-order.  This Online Exclusive collection will be available to customers beginning March 1st.  Mark your calendar now because you are going to want to add this to your crafty collection!

I pulled some of the Hello, Irresistible DSP in shades of Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink and Daffodil Delight.  There are other gorgeous colors in this pack of paper, some of which are returning favorites.  So exciting!

I embossed two of the Irresistible Blooms on a piece of DSP, cutting them out with the coordinating Irresistible Blooms Dies.  A bit of Distress Gold was brought in with the leaves and the Loose Frosted Dots added just the right amount of bling.

This suite is absolutely gorgeous and I can't wait to share more sneak peeks with you!

Have a fabulous weekend and happy stamping!
