Something for Baby Card

I wanted to share with yo the card that I created for my niece's new little one that should be arriving in December.  We had a family shower for her a couple of weeks ago and this is the card that I created and gave her.  I live the new Something for Baby stamp set and framelit bundle.  I love it when we have a stamp set and framelit to match it.  I prefer to use the framelits then to cut out.

Bloom with Hope Birthday Card

Happy Monday Morning.  I wanted to share a fun card that I made using the new blendablities markers.  I LOVE these markers!  They make coloring in so much fun.  They blend the shades of the color to well and you didn't see any lines from coloring in.  I made this sample as a birthday card but you can stamp any sentiment on the card.

Here is the recipe:
Bloom with Hope (Hostess stamp set) (page 242)
Remembering Your Birthday (page 59)
Old Olive (#100702) and Whisper White (#100730) card stock
Park Lane Designer Paper (#133694)
Old Olive stamp pad (#126953)
Memento stamp pad - Tuxedo Black (#132708) - must use this stamp pad with using the blendabilities markers
Old Olive(#130999) and Melon Mambo (#130994) assortment blendabilities markers
Scallop Oval (#119856) and Ex-Large Oval (#119859) punches
Oval Collections Framelits (#129381)
White Organza 5/8" Ribbon (114319)

Fall Card - Give Thanks

Happy Morning Monday.  Here is a card that I made for our September card class.  It is a great fall card.  We used the Color Me Autumn Washi Tape and Fall Fest Bundle (pumpkin).  The washi tape was used to make a nice design in the fall colors.  This was a fun card to make for the fall, just had a hard time being creative for fall when it was 100 degrees.I love the colors on this card, you know how I love the color purple.  I really do like our color blackberry bliss (In Color).

Here is the recipe:
For All Things (#135155 C), Fall Fest (#135194) stamp sets
Tango Twist, Whisper White, Crumb Cake, and Cajun Craze card stock
Tango Twist, Mossy Meadow, and Chocolate Chip stamp pads
Blackberry Bliss (marker)
Color Me Autumn Designer Washi Tape (#135842)
Fun Fall Framelit Dies (#135856)
1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon (#132140), Linen Thread (#104199) and Gold Sequin Trim (#132983)
Gold Basic Metal Buttons (#133763)

We pulled the sequins off the thread and used the multipurpose liquid glue to glue the sequins on the card stock.    

Thank you for visiting today. Please add your comment about what is your favorite thing about fall.  God Bless.
