It is Simple Saturday......

Here are a couple of cute cards!

They are great all occasions cards.

Just change the words OR flip over the DSP to customize for your needs.

Yes the hearts are on one side & the strips are on the other side of the 

same piece of DSP from the Sweet Talk DSP pack. 

Cool huh!

Check out my pretty white doily!

It is from the Heart & Home Doilies & it is the BACK SIDE of one of them.

Grassy Grove

 

Check out this pretty card.

I love the way it turned out.

It is a great guy card that could be used for many different occasions.

 

This scene is what it looks like when I look out the window on our farm.

I just love seeing nature's beauty!

I made this into a fun z fold card.

This is what it looks like when standing up!

Do you notice the embossed trees along the left edge of the card?

You don't see it as much as I thought you would- but it is still

some added texture that adds to the card.

I used the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder for this.

 

There is a little omitting of the ink on the sky & grass?

I did this on purpose.......

That is because I wanted this to have a water color look to it.

 

NOTE:  With these solid image photopolymer stamps you WILL want

to have a piercing mat underneath your paper when you stamp the image,

so that you get a good stamped image.

 

How did I do it?

1.  Ink stamp in the Balmy Blue Ink. 

2. Lightly spray water onto the stamp & 

press it down onto the Watercolor Paper.  

3.  Ink the middle section stamp into the Pear Pizzazz Ink.

4.  Lightly spray water onto the stamp

& press it down onto the Watercolor Paper.

5.  Ink the ground/grass & trees in Old Olive Ink & stamp them.

*I DID NOT spray water onto these when stamping them.

6.  Stamp the deer onto Very Vanilla card stock, 

using Soft Suede Ink & then die cut it out.

Here are the supplies & measurements.

stamp sets:  'Ocean Front' (sky, meadow & hill), 'Grassy Grove'(deer, tall grass, trees), 'Let's Set Sail' (birds) & 'Expressions of Friendship' (hostess set for the words)

card stock:

• Old Olive- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 2 1/8"(emboss this) & 4 1/4"- fold for z fold card base

Simple Saturday Stepped Up!

 Check out this pretty card using the Flowering Tulips stamp set

& the coordinating Flowering Fields DSP.

This Flowering Fields DSP is just gorgeous!

Check out these 3 cards.

I stepped them up!

#1. Simple

#2. Casual

#3. Dressed Up

They are all the same basic layouts with a little 'more'

added to each one of these cards.

HOW DID I DO IT?

Check out how I flag the end of the strip with the words on it.

• 1 x 4" piece of Basic White card card.
• Stamp words onto this strip.
  
• Using the Tailored Tag Punch- flag the right end of the strip with words on it.
  

This is how you slide the strip of card stock into the bottom of

the Tailored Tag Punch to make it flagged.

Here is the simple card.

This card is a casual one- with added layers on it.

AND

This one is more dressed up with layers, shadow stamping on the

Poppy Parade card base & ribbon added.

 

I could have done even more with embossing, die cutting or

making this into a fun fold to make it an avid card.

Here are the supplies & measurements.
