Congratulations Card for Market Street Stamps Sketch Challenge

Here is the card that I made for the current Market Street Stamps Sketch Challenge. I used the beautiful Vintage Wallpaper background stamp and embossed it in black. Then I inked it up with some Pink Posie Stampin' Up ink. I also heat embossed this beautiful sentiment and frame by My Creative Time. The sentiment is from Follow Your Dreams and the frame is from Inspiring Words {Accents}. I also used the My Creative Time Curly Label Die. That cute little paper bow was inspired by a lovely paper bow that I had seen Tifany from Ink Blots by TRD put on one of her cards. I'm not sure if I did it the same way but I love how it looks on the card. I'm sure I will be using this idea again. Thanks Tifany.

I hope you are having a WONDERFUL day! Take care! Hugs- Glora

Royal Wedding Blog Hop and Birthday Celebration Day 5 - Peachy Keen Stamps

Hello everyone and welcome to the Royal Wedding Blog Hop and the 5th day of my birthday celebration. If you came here by way of the creative and talented Angelica, then you are in the right place for the hop. If this has been your first stop on the hop please make sure that you take the time to go back and start at Heidi's blog.

Today I am spotlighting Peachy Keen Stamps. I LOVE my Peachy Keen Stamps SO much! They make EVERYTHING so much cuter. I could never say enough good about them. I just LOVE them.

For my project I made a ballerina princess birthday banner.

Here are some closeups and then the whole banner:

I wasn't sure if I was stretching the guidelines for the hop too much with my banner so I also made a wedding card for the occasion. I hope you like it. Aren't those Peachy Faces SO cute?! I LOVE them! I am also submitting my projects for the Whimsical Wednesday Challenge.

Easter Blessings

Have you ever seen those beautiful and intricate Easter eggs that some VERY talented people make? Well, my eggs don't ever turn out that way, but I wanted to try and make some pretty paper ones for the Color Cue Challenge #1 over at Market Street Stamps. We were supposed to use Plum, Sunshine Yellow and Caribbean Blue.

I used the beautiful Vintage Wallpaper background stamp and stamped my white eggs with a watermark ink pad. Then I embossed them with clear embossing powder. Next I inked them up with the coordinating colors. I had so much fun making these. I hope you enjoy them too and I hope you will join in the challenge. There is one day left to play along.
