Triangle Flapped Fun Fold

Happy Monday!!!!

Grumble, grumble, groan...

I have a fun card for you today though!

Pretty cute, eh? Kinda livens up this dreary Monday, doesn't it?

This was one of our class cards too. I think the participants really liked it.

Check out how I used our pearlized doily. I wanted to make it look like she was walking on a rug.

It just makes me happy when I look at her. I can't help but smile.

This card folds flat for mailing in a business-sized envelope.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

This is probably my only post for this week. My favorite nephew and I are headed out to camp with the horses for the first time this Summer and he already goes back to school in a couple weeks. It's been a sad summer for horseback riding and camping, so we're gonna take advantage where we can!

~Happy Stamping!~

♪♫ Justa Swingin' ♫♪

Hello Stampers!

This is the 2nd card we made in class. Doesn't she look like she's having so much fun?! Ahhh, I remember those days :)

As soon as I saw this See a Silhouette bundle in the new catalog I knew it was one of the first things I was going to buy.

I used the Stamparatus so that I could ink her up 3 or 4 times to get a really dark impression.

I used a few strips of the Perennial Essence DSP. I wanted it to look like grass underneath her.

And, of course, we can't have nekkid 😮 insides or envelopes! LOL!

Have a Stampingly Happy Sunday!

~Kim~

Lace Class Card

Good Morning! 🌞

I hope this weekend finds you well. It's VERY hot here in Illinois. We've been having heat indices up to 110°!!! 😓 I feel so bad for the people and animals that have to be out in it. 😥

I, however, choose to be in a climate-controlled environment crafting!

We had a great class this week that started with this card.

It's a very, very simple card but I love the simple elegance of it. That beautiful Petal Pink ribbon against the Mossy Meadow Cardstock really draws my attention. Lo & behold there's a beautiful Petal Pink DSP (Designer Series Paper) in the Perennial Essence pack. The class attendees really liked that paper!

The Woven Heirlooms stamp set is so elegant too! I just love it!
This is simple stamping at it's finest.
Now, go stamp something!
See ya soon!

Second Iris Card

Hello again!

Today I'm following up as promised on my last Iris post. This iris was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored using our Stampin' Blends. Look how smooth the color is. I did not do any shading. I simply colored them in. Easy Peasy.

Now what to do with that image???

Build a card around it, of course! :) Since I used Seaside Spray and Rococo Rose to color the low petals of the iris, I focused on those colors for my card base and layers. I had a scallop piece leftover from a card I made a while back so I added that for interest as well. The It Starts with Art Washi tape was the pop this card needed to draw out the So Saffron color in the iris'.

I stamped off another iris for the inside - just like the first card in this 3-part series. I think it adds a nice touch. What do you think?

And one more pic on what got me started with this series.

That's it for today. I'm hoping to get the last post from this series up and running for your viewing pleasure tomorrow. It's gonna be a busy weekend as I prep for my class next week.
