I've been wanting to play with the Soda Pop Tops and this sketch was a perfect chance. I used the Collage Curios set along with the Sale-a-bration set Vintage Verses to create a fun french just because look. I love the color combo of Daffodil Delight, Basic Gray, and Pool Party. I wanted just a little ageing to the card so I spritzed the card a it to add a touch of color and dirt to the card.

One of my favorite sets in the Sale-a-bration brochure is the Patterened Occasions set. (Can you tell?? I've used it a LOT) The blue colors in this challenge were just begging to be Jeans. I used the Not Quite Navy full strength and stamped off once to get some varations in the Jean Colors. I also added in a Crumb Cake one for a Kakhi Pants look. I used the Cloudy Day embossing folder in the background to give some sky texture to the Marina Mist card stock, hung the pants on a Linen Thread clothes line and finished the card off with a bit of Daffodil Delight Stitched Grosgrain ribbon.

I'm in LOVE with the Oh, Whale stamp set – perfect for Valentines, Thank You Cards, and so much more! This year I wanted a valentine that wasn't just about candy, and this two tags box is perfect for tucking a cello bag full of something fun like pretzles (or Gold Fish – how cute would that be in a Whale box?) Of course you can also tuck in a cello bag full of chocolate 🙂

This card is one of the cards we made at last weekend's stamp camp. As soon as I saw the sketch I though of the Vine Street Embossing folder for the background of the rectangle layer so I designed the card from there. I wanted to keep things clean and simple (my favorite type of card) so I replaced the banner in the sketch with a simple ribbon tag off to the side. It was quick and cute! Perfect for a Thank You card!

One of my BFFs recently shared some really great news that of course requires a I'm so happy for you card!! 🙂 I normally choose soft simple colors for her – so Primrose Petals and Pool Party are perfect – but when I saw the the color combo for this challenge I though it would be fun to play with the soft colors while adding that punch of Real Red and a lot of Basic Black. I love the way the card came out – it still has the soft look she loves but with a little different touch and a punch of bold color!
