Hello, Stampers!
I hope this week again finds you happy, healthy and enjoying many creative pursuits!
Whew! Nate and I returned around midnight, Sunday evening, from our trip to Newport Beach, California. Stampin' Up treated us like royalty! There was lots of relaxation and "explore on your own" time that we enjoyed so much! We met great stampin' gals and their spouses, enjoyed Laguna Beach and Balboa Island and enjoyed several outstanding meals. The roses were still in bloom and I LOVED all of the succulents thriving! (A large fountain for my succulent collection is in our future! Just not as large as the one in the picture. And of course there was the lovely beach!
Now it's time to stamp!!!!
The cards of the week!!
Such simplicity! Just a Stampin' Up Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla and Mossy Meadow color palette and some fun, framed layers! I just love the Versatile Christmas stamp set with lovely sentiments for inside and out! (140392) 9 stamps! You can't beat it! Bling, always! A Basic Rhinestone (119246) and a Home for Christmas Enamel Dot (140536) are just the right touches.
Card #2 is this fun beauty using the Embellished Ornaments Bundle ((139759), crisp Whisper White Cardstock and Real Red Classic Stampin' Pad for this elegant pee-a-boo card. (Hard to tell in the picture but the ornament is actually on the inside of the card and the front is cut out using a coordinating framelit! Couldn't resist the Red Foil Sheets (139607) for the ornament. I used the Gold Foil Sheets for the hanger.(132622). Finishing touches are the Organza Ribbon (always a favorite) (114319) and just a touch of the Gold Metallic Thread (138401). Last and definitely not least (but also hard to see in the picture), I used the new Softly Falling Embossing Folder(139672) on the front of the card after stamping the sentiment.
I hope you find some inspiration in these two original projects!
Have a happy week and I'll see you again next week!!
Stampin' Hugs and Smiles,
Ree
