Inspired Timeless Tulips

This card was inspired by a card that Julie Gilson made awhile ago. I changed the blooms and the framing of each piece on the panel. I also used different colors and paper.

It's tough coming up with your own ideas for cards, but one thing I love about the stamping community is that there is always inspiration out there! If you like a certain stamp set or designer series paper, but you don't know what to do with it, you can check sites like Pinterest or Splitcoast Stampers. Use the name of the stamps or paper and many finished cards will show up in your search. They just might give you an idea of what to do with your favorite products.

Thanks for stopping by today! Please use my Online Store to purchase your favorite stamps and paper to make cards that will brighten someone's day.

Fabulous at Any Age

One simple sentiment stamp and you can build a beautiful card around it. Here I began by wanting to make a frame on a card. My next inspiration came from making an element to decorate my frame. I put a Soft Sea Foam leaf from the In the Tropics dies into a Vase Builder vase. Last, I chose a background using texture on Purple Posy card stock and then a strip of Designer Series Paper from a retire 6" x 6" pack. By using the card stock this size you can get two cards from every sheet in the pack.

Wishing You All The Best

Today's card began with scraps on my work counter. I had some leftover pieces from a Paper Pumpkin kit (those white pine-like sprigs are green on the other side)and some Leaf Punch Silver glimmer pieces. I added the white berry sprig cut using the Frosted Bouquet Dies and adhered the 3 pieces together. 

Those little bouquets sat on my counter for a few days. Then I discovered I needed a few birthday cards for some upcoming birthdays. I got to work designing a card where I could use my bouquets. Here she is! I combined the silver and white with Mint Macaroon and Smoky Slate for a winter look. My background is the Subtle texture from the embossing folder.

Wood Patterns and Itty Bitty Greetings

I was browsing Pinterest and came across this lovely layout on a "wood" inspired card by my friend and mentor, Mary Fish of Stampin' Pretty. I knew it WOOD be perfect for my workshop this month and I was right. The ladies loved all the wood tones, the texture from the new Subtle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and all the combined browns in this card.

Each lady chose which sentiment she wanted on her card from the Itty Bitty Greetings, a new stamp set that has gotten so much use from me already! I know it will remain in my collection for a long time.
