Thank You Flowers

Finally - another card! Life is just too busy, but it's all good! I guess I didn't get the embossing very deep on the bottom of the white panel because it doesn't show very well. But, it's there! I got a new die at the Dollar Tree, so of course I had to try it out right away. I did it once with white on the top of the panel, and once in ivory, but just the thin strip. I colored the ivory one, and you'll see it some day. I scored the lines with my Scor-Buddy. The sentiment is from Avery Elle.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day, Friends!! I hope you all have someone special to share your day with. Here is a valentine I made for a friend. I used a die for the line of hearts across the bottom and also the main focal point. I used glitter paper for that and also under the row of hearts. I stamped the sentiment, from a Recollections set, and then embossed with a Darice folder. I added "nail heads" to the circles on the die-cut. The whole main panel is mounted on foam squares.

Birthday Roses

The background on this one was done by cleaning off my brayer. I had shown a friend how to brayer on an embossing folder, so I used the excess ink. The doily die-cut was from my card parts. The leaves are from Gina K. I have so many layered rose stamps that I'm not even sure where these are from. I have a new-to-me Altenew set, and they could be from there. The sentiment is a rub-on, also from my card parts.

And Even More Card Parts

These two die-cut backgrounds were in my card parts.  I own the dies and I believe they are from Memory Box. I mounted this first one on foam squares. The flower pieces and sentiment were done a couple years ago using a borrowed Stampin' Up! set.

The sentiment on this one is from Altenew. The leaves are from Gina K - from an ephemera package.

Using Up More Card Parts

I keep trying to use up more and more card parts. These backgrounds I have had for many, many years. I'm sure they were made with alcohol and Stampin' Up! inks. For this first one, I added a die-cut wreath. It had been cut out of purple cardstock. I colored the leaves green and added enamel dots to the flower centers. The sentiments were also in my card parts - stamped and die-cut using a  Stampin' Up set. The "Sending" is mounted on foam squares.

The die-cut "doily" is from my card parts, as are the flowers and leaves. The sentiment is from an Altenew set. I used foam squares under the sentiment, the roses and the outer-most leaves.

Oopsie! February Calendar Page

Oops, I forgot to share my calendar page yesterday! So here it is today. The hearts were done with Gina K stencils. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado. Happy February!!
