Flourishing Thanks and Last Chance

Hello Hivers,

Just playing around with some colors and the Flourishing Phrases stamp set.  I love how clean and simple this card is.  I always think I need to add this and that to make a card look great, but that is not always true.  The sentiment is from the Daisy Delight stamp set.


Colors:  Pool Party, Old Olive, Wisteria Wonder, Whisper White, and Tranquil Tide

Big Delightful Birthday

Hello Hivers,

I am really enjoying the Delightful Daisy Suite.  The colors are so vibrant and go well for just about any occasion.  I just used small strips of the DSP along the tops of these cards.  I added a portion of the Delicate White Doilies to each card,  that I sponged with Wisteria Wonder ink.  I think the 1/4" Daffodil Delight Double-Stitched Ribbon really pops on these cards.  You can't really see it in the photograph, but I added Wink of Stella to all the flowers.

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today.
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Retired Birthday Wishes

Hello Hivers,

I don't know why, but I have been holding on to some scraps from the Serene Scenery DSP Stack.  I finally decided to go ahead and use them on a couple of cards.  What do you think?  Not too bad for scraps.

Stamps:  Big on Birthdays and Confetti Celebration

Eastern Beauty Smiles

Hello Hivers,

I thought I would try something different with the Eastern Beauty stamp set.  I used some of the images as flowers.  This was my first attempt and I didn't really think about the layout.  I love this card, but I think I could have done so much more.

Colors:  Dapper Denim, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White, Lemon Lime Twist, Melon Mambo, Old Olive, Smokey Slate, Wink of Stella, and Soft Sky

Color Theory Christmas

Hello Hivers,

I created this wonderful box using the same template I used last Wednesday, well....almost the same.  I did make a few changes to the parts that I cut off and kept.  You can find the altered template below.

I decorated this box using the Color Theory Designer Series Paper and Sesaonal Layers Thinlits.  I added some Metalic Sequins for a little sparkle.  The Senitment is from the Star of Light stamp set.

Colors:  Dapper Denim, Soft Sky, Whisper White
DSP:  1.75" x 1.25" (2)  4" x 1.75" (1)  4" x 1.25" (1)

Flourishing Notes

Hello Hivers,

I was trying to use up some of my scraps of DSP that were too big to just toss in the trash.  This is what I came up with using a little strip of Delightful Daisy DSP.  I complted the look of this card using the Floursihing Phrases stamp set.

Colors:  Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, Tranquil Tide, Basic Black, Whisper White, and Wink of Stella

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today.

Ombre Birthday

Hello Hivers,

I was wowed by the results of this card.  I am not a huge fan of Wisteria Wonder, but I love how it looks when paired with Calypso Coral.  The bold image from Big on Birthdays really stands out.  The final touch was the New Calypso Coral 1/4" Ombre Ribbon that I added to the top corner.

Colors:  Calypso Coral, Whisper White, Glossy White, Wisteria Wonder

Delightful Daisy Boxes

Hello Hivers,

Here are a couple of boxes I created using the template found below.  These boxes are the same, I just turned one of them on its side.

I used Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper along with the Daisy Delight stamp set and Daisy Punch.

On the tall box, I used the Bow Builder Punch for my sentiment and the Tree Builder Punch for the little flower.

Colors:  Sweet Sugar Plum, Peekaboo Peach, Emerald Envy, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive Wisteria Wonder, Very Vanilla, and Basic Black

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today.
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Stormy Days

Hello Hivers,

I am still playing around with the Polished Stone technique.  I thought the High Tide stamp set was perfect for the colors that I used in the background.  I textured the Basic Gray card stock with the Seaside Texuted Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF).


Colors:  Glossy White, Smokey Slate, Basic Gray, Pacific Point

Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Polished Stone Sympathy

Hello Hivers,

I hate having to make Sympathy cards, but I do love the way this card turned out.  I wanted it to be very simple with calming colors.  I added a pop of color with Flirty Flamingo to just one of the roses.  I used the Bright Wishes and Colorful Seasons stamp sets to complete this card.

Colors:  Whisper White, Glossy White, Smokey Slate, Pool Party, Silver Glitter

Colorful Seasons Sympathy

Hello Hivers,

I made this card for my oldest son to give to one of his friends.  She lost her husband a couple of weeks ago.  I can't imagine what she is going through.  We are praying for her to find comfort in good memories of their life together.

I used the High Tide and Colorful Seasons stamp set to create the card.  The colors I used are Whisper White, Basic Black and Bermuda Bay card stock.  I added some of the New Mini Cheveron Ribbon along with some retired Candy Dots.
