Pop of Paradise ~ Monday Montage



Welcome back to Monday Montage!!!  We are back with another fabulous hop!  Make sure you click on the links below so you don't miss any of the creations...you are sure to love them all!

Thanks for joining us for our hop this week!  We took a little break over Easter weekend, but we are back and happy to be creating again!

I went through and pull out all of my retiring items over the weekend...always a sad time :-(  But it gave a chance to look at what I have that is staying around for another year and give some love to some stamps that I haven't inked up in a while.

Pop of Paradise was one of the sets that caught my eye, so I inked it up and had some fun fussy cutting!  Do you spy a new color on this card?!?!

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Flirty Flamingo, Whisper White, Pop of Pink Specialty DSP

Ink ~ Flirty Flamingo, Basic Black, Crushed Curry, Cucumber Crush, Emerald Envy, Tranquil Tide

Stamp Set ~ Pop of Paradise

Other Supplies ~ Pop of Pink Washi Tape, Gold Metallic Enamel Shapes, Gold Metallic Thread

 

I kind of forgot how cute this set is!  I always love anything with flamingos!

 

Next stop on the hop is Cathy...I can't wait to see what she has for us this week! Or if you want to hop backwards, you can hop on back to the amazing Amy...I just love her style!

  Thanks for hopping along with us today!

Happy Stamping!

Happy Wednesday stampin' friends!

 

Wedding season is quickly approaching and the amazing design team over at SSINK is getting a head start on wedding and anniversary cards.

 

We have two weddings coming up, so I was happy to get a head start on at least one of the wedding cards that I'll need!  I'm something old and something new for this card...but nothing borrowed or blue ;-) 

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Gold Glimmer, Falling in Love DSP

Ink ~ Blushing Bride, White Kraft Ink

I'm pretty sad to see the Succulents Framelits go...I love them so much!  You can pretty much guarantee that those will stay in my crafting stash for future projects of my own :-)
