Purple Plum Sheltering Tree

I love the Sheltering Tree stamp set. Growing up we had what we called a purple plum tree. It was beautiful with pink blossoms in the spring time turning into purple leaves. I don’t remember ever getting any plums from it but it sure was beautiful to look at. That memory was the inspiration for this card.

Blue & Yellow Thinking of You Card

So I had so much fun with my last blue and yellow card, I wanted to repeat that theme with this one.  I used the Painted Petals Designer Series Paper.  The fastest way to make a cute card is to use the Designer Paper, the patterns are so cute and if you need a quick card just add a sentiment and your are ready!  The sentiment I used is from Sheltering Tree, I love the fancy writing look.  🙂

Blue & Yellow Thinking of You

Blue & Yellow and You Made My Day!

I’ve been doing a lot of pink and green cards lately because…basically….I love pink!  But also it reminds me of Spring which I am eagerly awaiting.  There is another color combo that reminds me of Spring and it’s blue and yellow.  I made this card for a sketch challenge and I love how it turned out.  I used my new favorite paper Birthday Bash Designer Series Paper from Stampin up!  Lots of possibilities with this paper. Oh and the “You Made My Day” sentiment is from the Best Day Ever Stamp Set that I earned for free!  Also want to know how I made regular ribbon into cute scrunched ribbon, come to my next class!  🙂blue&yellowyoumademyday

I just got the Wisteria Ink Pad in from Stampin’up and wanted to use it but….I couldn’t resist adding a little Pink Pirouette  to it because, well you know, my favorite color is pink.  🙂  This is a great technique and will be featured in my next class.  To register for my upcoming classes just click on the Classes and Events button at the top!Wisteria Painted Petals
