Have you been wondering why I am suddenly posting every day, and even on the weekend? My wonderful SU UPLINE, Brian King, present a challenge to our group of InKing Royalty. We are supposed to make a card with the new products every day from June 5 – 19! What a challenge, but Oh What Fun!!! Twist my arm and make me play, YES!!
Today’s card is a mixture of items. But I think it has a little bit of whimsy look. What do you think?
Happy Birthday Gorgeous, Lovely Words,
I used the new Color Theory DSP Stack, Happy Birthday Gorgeous, and the Lovely Words Thinlits. Of course I have to get some Lemon Lime Twist involved. I know I should back off of using it so much. I am trying!
The base of the card is Crushed Curry card stock cut to 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 and folded in half
The layer of Lemon Lime Twist card stock is cut to 5 1/4 X 4
The next layer of Crushed Curry is cut to 5 1/8 X 3 7/8
The layer of Color Theory DSP is cut to 5 X 3 3/4
The “Friend” is cut from the Lovely Words Thinlits Die from Lemon Lime Twist card stock with the Multii-purpose adhesive sheet added to the card stock prior to die cutting. (It adds glue all over the die for easy adhesion)
Make A Wish is stamped directly onto the DSP using Lemon Lime Twist Ink
The balloons are stamped in Lemon Lime Twist on scrap Whisper White and punched with the Balloon Bouquet Punch and then raised with Stampin’ Dimensionals
And that is a pretty simple card. Before long I will have all of you addicted to Lemon Lime Twist too !!
Even though I listed all of the products, the photos are below and you can click on any of them to go directly to my on line store.
Thank you for stopping by today!! Please do not forge the wonderful ADDITIONAL HOST DOLLARS for this month.
I was experimenting with new products and ended up with a “different” sort of card. It was pretty much what I had envisioned, I just had a hard time getting it there. Don’t you hate that! A lot of my “visions” never work, so I was very happy with this one.
Wood Words, 143928
This card is a little more difficult to explain that most of the ones I come up with. But please stay with me 🙂
The base of the card is Thick Whisper White cut to 4 1/4 X 11, and folded in half
The wood layer is stamped directly onto the card front with the Hardwood background stamp in Crumb Cake
The wooden box is a scrap of the Wood Textures DSP Stack
The flowers are from the Wood Words stamp set. They are stamped in Sahara Sand and then touched up with markers
The Farmer’s Market sign is From Wood Words and stamped in Pear Pizzaz and then punched with 1 1/4 circle punch
The backing of the sign is from another scrap of the Wood Texture DSP punched with the 1 3/8 circle punch
The banner is Sweet Sugarplum stamped onto Whisper White card stock and punched with the Duet Banner Punch
The little loop is out of Linen Thread and the “nail” is a Metallic Enamel Shape
The flowers and the Welcome are raised up with Stampin’ Dimensionals

It seems I switch between the Daisy bundle and the Eastern Beauty bundle. Today I am going back to the Daisy. I just cannot get enough of this stamp set, punch, DSP, ribbon….Oh My!!! It is a win, win, win. As Meg Ryan’s character said in the movie “You’ve Got Mail”, Daisies are such happy flowers 🙂
Daisy Delight Bundle, 145361
The Daisy Delight / Daisy Punch bundle and the Delightful Daisy DSP are just wonderful. Unfortunately it does not appear in the photo, but I went over the leaves of the daisy with the Clear Wink of Stella. In person it has a little sparkle to it. The Gold Faceted Gems were just made for the center of the daisy and the pop of the Double Stitched1/4″ Ribbon is so cute. I am also loving the new Pretty Label Punch. I see me going to that punch quite often in the near future!
If you do not have a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator currently, or have ordered from me in the past, I would love to talk with you and show you all of the new products in our catalog. There is also a special for our June Hosts! An Awesome Deal !!!!

Today’s card is made partly with the first stamp set I fell in love with when it was debuted at OnStage. Brian King presented it and showed such beautiful cards that I knew it would be coming to me as soon as I could order it. Since we are all about crafting, who could not love this set. And for today’s card I went a little more neutral with it to show it’s versatility. Of course the sentiment, even though from another stamp set, fits perfectly with the theme.
Crafting Forever, Truly Artistic
What do you think of the more neutral look? The Fresh Florals DSP is almost as much a star as the Crafting Forever and Just Add Text stamp sets. I do believe these two stamp sets compliment each other.
I only used Tranquil Tide and Very Vanilla on this card, With the exception of Memento Black ink for the pens and then I colored them with the Bermuda Bay Watercolor Pencils. I think it blends well enough with the Tranquil Tide. Those pencils and the colors provided in them tend to work with most of our colors.
Thank you for visiting today! I truly appreciate your comments. And if there are any questions, or you need assistance with a purchase, please let me know.
When I first saw this suite I was not sure that I would use it. Then as I saw the cards and ideas that were being created with it, I thought “This may be ok”. And when I played with it…. I was hooked!! Oh My! The entire suite is just the best. Today’s card is another of my play dates with this stamp set and the new InColors.
Eastern Beauty Bundle, 145308
I would apologize for continually using Lemon Lime Twist…..But I cannot….. It is my current addiction. I just love how it seems to coordinate with everything.
I did use the New (actually an old item returning) Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets! If you use the framelits, and especially the word framelits, this is a must have. You adhere the sheet to your card stock and then use the framlit to cut out your design or words. NOTE: Remember to put the adhesive side on the bottom. You don’t want your words to be upside down! I used the adhesive sheets on all three pieces of my design. After die cutting just remove the paper and it is covered in sticky goodness. No more glue everywhere for me.
As you can see there is very little stamping on this card. The base of the card is Thick Whisper White card stock. I used four of the new InColors and then just stamped that cute saying underneath. The center of the design is one of the Glitter Enamel Dots.
I hope you will give this wonderful Eastern Beauty Suite a chance. It is definitely a keeper!!

Just Breathe! Isn’t that an awesome statement? With everyone’s busy schedule it would be nice to just sit and relax. I hope that is what this card reflects.
Colorful Seasons Bundle, 145348
I know that I just shared a relaxing chair on the beach last week. But after playing with this technique, I could not wait to share it. Brian King shared this method with our team at a downline meeting a few months ago. It is actually very simple , and somewhat addicting!! You use baby wipes and the ink pad. That is it!! Just use the baby wipe like you would a sponge and touch it to the card. This background is one of about five I played with. Some were just eclectic backgrounds and a few were like this one with me attempting a landscape. Please give it a try\
For my background I used Old Olive for the grass, Soft Sky for the sky, and Peekaboo Peach for the sun. The adirondack chair and the little drink on the arm of the chair are from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies. The JustBreathe is from Colorful Seasons stamp set. They both are included in the Colorful Seasons Bundle with a 10% savings!
This bundle is a must have. It covers all the seasons and is so fun to play with. The fonts used for the sentiments are just wonderful and the dies are so easy to use. It was at the top of my bundle wish list for this new catalog.
Thank you so much for stopping at my blog. I very much appreciate it.
The products I used are listed below: Minus the baby wipes 🙂
