Peaceful Reflections

Posted on by

Do you ever look at a set and say hmmm. Not sure how to use that one? Well Peaceful Reflections was one of those for me, I just didn’t get it when I saw it during Prize Patrol at On Stage in April.

That is until I started seeing how it can be used And that is what I love about being a Demonstrator, sharing! Sharing with each other is what it’s all about. I quickly put it on my list of must haves. Flowers, water, dragonfly and even a hummingbird image is included!

Check out these lovely cards made with this set.

I love the elegant simplicity of this card –

And this card is just bright and cheerful

Done in Grapefruit Grove and Pineapple Punch with a touch of Basic Black.

And this card has a touch of copper

So what do you think? Why not check it out? You’ll find it on page 158 of the Annual Catalog.

More Sea of Textures

Posted on by

Yesterday I shared some cards with you using the Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper – today’s cards don’t use Designer Series Paper, instead they add interest and texture with stamps and techniques.

This first card uses our Brusho Color Crystals (144101) to create the background for the window.

And can you see the texture on the net? Add a little Soft Suede Reinker (115663) to our Fine Tip Glue Pen adhesive and dab it on to create some wonderful texture with a shine!

And here this card uses the Shaving Cream Technique and our Lemon Lime Twist (144092), Bermuda Bay (131156) and Night of Navy (103033)  reinkers to create this fun back drop.

and check out this fun fold that hides this sentiment inside.

More Nature’s Poem

Yesterday I shared with you some cards made with the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper that were created with the Rooted in Nature stamp set. Today’s cards all uses the Nature’s Poem Designer Series Paper (146338) but other stamp sets instead. I love the fact that these patterns can be so versatile.

Check out today’s cards – These first two are made with the Animal Outing Stamp set (146597/146600)

This one is a fun telescoping card – so cute!

And this one uses the Varied Vases stamp set (146644). I love the way the Nature’s Twine has been pulled apart to create a lot of texture on this card.

And how about this one using the Colorful Seasons stamp set (143726) and Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies (143751).

I just love this Adirondack chair done in Blackberry Bliss.

We’ll I’m off and hoping it doesn’t rain tonight – I’m heading out to door in a few minutes to see my daughter’s first Half Time Show being presented for parents night. Sounds like she has a great group of students and can’t wait to see what the children have done the last two weeks during Band Camp. For those of you who have been stamping with me for years, you know we’re a marching band family and it’s been Kaitlin’s dream to be a High School Band Director. So it looks like High School Friday night football games are back on my calendar. LOL!
