Good Snowy Friday Morning. I love to be able to sit and watch the snow fall. We have not had much of it this winter, but hopefully we can get out and make some snow people later.
I have enjoyed some crafting time this past couple of weeks. This year started off with a bang and is just now starting to slow down some.
This is such a beautiful technique and I can basically sit anywhere and do it... even while watching a Go Diego Go marathon with Ayden.
The colours used here are calypso coral, riding hood red and poppy parade (markers) and the card stock is lucky limeade and poppy parade. I didn't give this colour a fair shake. Now it retires in the end of May...... and I love it. Oh well don't judge a colour by it's brightness.
The tutorial for this technique is in the post below. Check it out and see what you can create!
Happy Stamping.

I love the Occasions Mini. I know I say it all the time but really I love everything in it. I wish I could have it all, but I am super happy with what I have. This is a new technique called Marker layering. You can find the Tutorial HERE.
This was super fun and relaxing and really very addictive. I absolutely adore this set called,Bordering on Romance (125482) it coordinates with the Edgelets dies (125595) and the Textured Impressions embossing folders (123601) and you cannot be without that ribbon. It is so great to work with and so pretty. Great for feminine cards and pages.
Stampin'Up! has really picked up speed with these great products. I am placing an order on March 12th. Get these great products while they are available.
Happy stamping everyone!

I missed posting yesterday. As I had to go to the city and when we got back I was to tired to do anything. Our kids treated us to a great lunch yesterday and then we got to watch Cutthroat Island. (There is a valentine's day reference in it)
So this card is made super simple with the help of the heart framelits. I will be back tomorrow with a really fun technique that I am loving.
Happy Stamping!

I just adore how versatile the Apothecary Art set is. It can be coloured or you can leave it uncoloured. Also used in this card is the The Paper Doily die, it measures approx 4 1/4 inches. It is very pretty and can be used so many different ways. It is a little more time consuming to punch out the little bits, but it is well worth the extra effort.

I also love those little tiny pearls. So pretty with this set and a few others from the mini.
Enjoy and Happy Stamping!

This is another sweet set from the mini. It's called You're my Type (125260) The typewriter reminds me of a friend. Who for so many years typed everything on an old battered typewriter.
It makes wonderful and quick cards a snap. It also comes with several cute sentiments.
Which makes it just my type. Have a Happy Sunday!
