Texture-Texture-Texture

I love my new texture plates... they really dress up a card. This card was made using the flower from 'Best Wishes & More' stamp set. I used black and Sahara Sand cardstock. The flower is embossed with clear embossing powder and Versamark. I used the Friend and Distressed texture plates and of course a little dazzling diamonds for that bit of bling!

Very Versatile

I've been playing around a lot with my new texture plates. I saw a card awhile back on SCS that I fell in love with... This is my take on it. This is also one of the samples I made for my sister's Wedding Invitations. The stamped image is from the Friends 24-7 stamp set. The paper is Sahara sand and Very vanilla.

Baja Basket

I made this cute little basket as a thank-you for a customer. I just love the new oval set and oval scallop punch (available April 1st). Baja and black has also become one of my new favourite colour combos.

Sympathy Card Class

Here are the cards I have planned for my Sympathy Card Class this coming Wednesday night. The 1st card uses the Baroque Motifs set and As Close as A Memory on Sahara Sand and Basic Black Cardstock. The second card is stamped with the Pocket Silouhettes stamp set and uses Baja Breeze and Basic black cardstock. The last card is stamped with the Three Little Words set and uses Elegant Eggplant and Pale Plum cardstock. Texture plates are also used on all 3 cards (this will be demonstrated in the class). The cards were designed to be sympathy cards but I will have other sentiments available so that the cards can be turned into all occasion, birthday or thank-you's.

Class details: Time: 8:00 pm @ my home...Cost is $10.00 per person-all materials and refreshments provided.

Springtini Birthday Wishes

FYI: this is not a Stampin' Up image ~ but I loved it so much I couldn't resist buying this stamp. This is a card I made for my SIL's birthday. I used basic black and pale plum Stampin' Up cardstock. I embossed the pale plum cardstock with the Stampin' Up texture plates (you may have to click on the picture to enlarge it to really see the dots). The one I used is called large dots (small dots is on the other side of the plate and they come in a set of 3... so you get 6 different images). See page 203 of the catalogue for more details! Finally, I used a glue pen to apply dazzling diamonds to give the card some bling.

Glittery Floral

Here's another card from regional displays and a challenge for you...what set(s) are the flowers from? I can't figure it out and it's driving me crazy! If you can figure it out, leave a comment listing the floral sets used on this card and I will give you 5 tickets for my quarterly door prize at the end of March!
