True Beauty of Friendship

Happy Thursday friends! Guess what is happening today?!?

I am a guest designer over at Stampin' Through The Catalog!   What an honor and such an exciting opportunity! If you haven't checked them out over on Instagram or Facebook, be sure to visit them today.  Their team of 3 amazing Independent Demonstrators in Utah stamp their way through the catalogs, inviting everyone to join along with them. So much creative inspiration can be found there!

I chose the True Beauty Bundle from the annual catalog, along with the Awash in Beauty DSP to share with everyone.  I love DSP that has images that can be fussy cut and chose one of the beautiful floral images as the focal point of the card.

The card front is a couple layers of Balmy Blue, which I stamped the top half with a few of the floral images from the stamp set, also in Balmy Blue.  I snuck in a bit more DSP on the bottom, tucked behind a strip of Balmy Blue & White 1/2" Double-Stitched Ribbon from the Mini Catalog.

The sentiment is stamped in Merry Merlot and fussy cut.  Distress Gold accent Deckled Rectangle and a couple Organic Beauty Dies springs added just the right amount of shimmer and shine.  This all went on to a Basic White card base, my favorite!

Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to check out Stampin' Through The Catalog and join in their weekly fun!

Happy Stamping!

Love Makes Us Family

Hello stampers!

As I wrap up my final week of the school year from home, I'm able to sneak in a little more stamping time...YAY!!!  Just a few more days and we will all be on summer break, which means even more stamping time!

I did get a little stamping break today to join in the latest Stampin' Through The Catalog Challenge, using the lovely new Lovely You stamp set.

I just love these fun little floral and leave stamps...they are so cheerful and happy!  I inked up the flowers and leaves in a rainbow of colors, fussy cutting a few to tuck behind the sentiment.

The coordinating Lovely Labels Pick a Punch is just as lovely as it sounds.  You can create fun labels in 6 different sizes, in any length that you want.  I love being able to layer two different sizes of labels for the sentiment.

Speaking of sentiments...isn't this one just the BEST?!?  Love really is what makes all of us family!  The sentiments this stamp set are all so perfect!
