Sand, sea, and sun. What does that make you think of? For me spending time at the lake front in Milwaukee and watching the boats on the water. They looked so elegant out in distance against the blue skies.
Today’s card uses our Sunrise Sailing Bundle (Online Exclusive 165497) filled with lovely sentiments and nautical images. The color has been added using a Blending Brush to hit the embossed image after it’s been cut out with the coordinating die. Isn’t it cool that our Hybrid Embossing Folders like this allow you to cut out the images and dry emboss them like this? A bit of color has also been added to the water and sky so the clouds pop on the Cloud Cover background.
It’s June and that means graduations and celebrating a new chapter in life and celebrating new adventures. So today I’m sharing some cards that use the Watercolor World (160708) and some fun techniques.
This first card uses a quick and easy technique that adds multiple colors to a stamp. This is great for larger images like this world map image.
Using a Blending Brush or Sponge Dauber each of the colors Gorgeous Grpe, Blueberry Bushel, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie and Real Red have been added to the image. Breathing on the stamp to reactivate the ink and then stamping. Quick and easy, but wow it make a cool image, right? Next the sentiment has been stamped on a strip of Basic White where the ends were punched using the Happy Labels Pick a Punch (160693). The sentiment has been popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the card front and a few Basic Gray & Smoky Slate Pearls (163416) have been added below. A colorful way to celebrate that next chapter.
And this next card uses Heat Embossing to create a glossy map.
After the map has been stamped onto Smoky Slate Card stock VersaMark has been used to cover the whole panel and Basics Wow! Embossing Powder (165679) poured over the top. Our Heat Tool (129053) was used to heat the embossing powder and create a shinny look. Add your favorite sentient like this one used from the Beside Me stamp set (160780). Then add a bit of ribbon like the XX which adds a bit of sparkle and you have an understated elegant card like this one.
Can you see the possibilities of this single stamp for quick and easy cards? Retirement, graduation, a trip or new job. What types of events or cards do you see yourself creating cards for? You can find this stamp and more in my Online Store. Add your favorite sentiment set and you’re ready to create!

I needed to whip up a bunch of graduation cards last weekend for my daughter’s students and my mind went immediately to the Large Letter Framelits Dies (1414712) that are part of the Last Chance List. I’m really going to miss the Letters for You stamp set (141968) and these coordinating dies since they make fast cards that are easily customizable to suit your needs.
Here is what I came up with
I reached for my Brights Designer Series Paper Stack (Last Chance 146964) since I needed multiples – school colors are red and black, a very common due here in Georgia. LOL!
Want to make some for yourself? With our Color Collection Designer Series Paper Stacks it’s soooo easy to make a bunch simply pick a family that has the color you need and team it up with the 2nd color using the dies!
Here is a quick tutorial for you with the complete supply list, sorry no video today I’m still cleaning up from my Spring Consignment Sale.
Many of these items are on the Last Chance List and are only available while supplies last. If you haven’t already taken a look, why not stop by and look at what is retiring now so you don’t miss out?

Spring is here and Graduations started in early May in our area. So today’s card is one that I made for a cousin’s son who recently graduated from college in South Carolina.
This card was quick and easy to make and I love the special touch the Red Glimmer Paper adds.
On a personal note as I mentioned earlier, our daughter, Kaitlin graduated from GCSU on May 6th with her Music Ed degree and is now back home for the summer. While I’m loving having her here I know it won’t be for long.
Larry and I are so proud of her and her accomplishments and think she is going to make a great teacher. She is a natural and loved everything about her student teaching semester in Morgan County.
After the ceremony and a final goodbye in Milledgeville, we loaded the truck to head home. On the way we stopped and had a celebration dinner at Kani House, one of her favorite places to dine. It was great to have the family together to celebrate this special day.
Now it is on to job interviews and new adventures for Kaitlin – the 4 years have flown by!
Stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing the projects and pillow gifts I made for my Sale-a-bration Celebration earlier this month.

It’s that time of year – and I needed some graduation cards. I wanted to try out my Large Number Framelits Dies this year and see what I came up with. I really like the way this card turned out AND since I’m using one of our Designer Series Paper Stacks I can make multiples of the card easily!
I ran across a card where someone that had used the Balloon Framlits for the tassel and thought it was pretty clever! (Sure wish I could see things like that when I look at a set – but then that is the wonderful part of stamping. Sharing ideas!)
And of course we have some wonderful sets that include graduation sentiments. I chose the B.Y.O.P., but we also have the Suite Sayings (140709/140712) from the Occasions Catalog, along with Happy Happenings (138734/139381) just to name a few.
And speaking of sharing – Maria gave me this wonderful card in a swap last week.
Isn’t it cute? It uses the Made with Love (138662) and Baby’s First Framelits Dies (133735).
