Bordering on Romance

As promised a Card! Yeah! It is another I made with my “Stash”. I had the main focal point just staring at me for a few days before I came up with this.

I love the Pool Party embossed with the Chevron Folder!  Ok, I have to admit that piece was lying around too!  It was from another card and it just fit perfectly for this card. So glad Pool Party is staying! LOVE this color!

I used my blender pens to color the flowers. You can use this card for just about any occasion. It would make a great Mother’s Day card or even a Thinking of you!

As always if you have any questions let me know and thanks for stopping by….

Mouthwatering Card Share

Hi Stampers! Thank goodness for the weekend!  This week just flew on bye!  Before I called it a night I wanted to share one of my cards that I put together with things I had lying around in a little bin or two.  My goal is to use it all up!  I tend to over make things sometimes either from cutting to much for a party or class and the pieces just don’t get used.  Well they’re piling up now and I need to use them up! Here’s my 1st card.

Mouthwatering Happy BirthdayI found the Ice Cream Cone from the Stampin’ Up! set Mouthwatering just begging to be put on a card!  ; ) I used Whisper White, Soft Suede, Pool Party & Calypso Coral cardstock with Calypso Coral & Soft Suede ink.  Added a touch of Glitter on the ice cream just to give it an extra Umph!  Well off to catch some well needed Z’sss.  Thanks for stopping by and as always thank you for stopping by and….

Happy Stampin’,
