Baby Blossoms!

Both of these cards are made with items out of the new mini Stampin Up catty. I used the baby blossoms set and the sentiments. (I cant remember the name of the sentiment set). For the colors of ink I used Baja Breeze, Not Quite Navy, Melon Mambo, Pretty In Pink, Mellow Moss and Handsome Hunter. The papers are white, Melon Mambo, and Not quite Navy.I also used the designer papers Springtime Vintage.
The ribbons I have had in my stash for over 20 years. They were from my moms craft collection for the stuffed animals she used to make Puffalumps. They come in handy all the time.
I also use the Framed Tulips stampin up embossing folder. I used it as a frame and as a little line across the top of the center piece. I have found one flaw with this folder. Its hard to fold the card in half after you've used it and it also cuts into the paper at the top. So when I made an additional card I layered white on white and used a separate piece instead of embossing the base card. I think it gave the card a little bit more elegant look also.
Happy Stamping!

Keeping it Really Simple!

I have never made a card this simple before but I was just playing around with the new Stampin Up items I recieved from the new Mini catalogue again. I love the Framed Tulip Embossing Folder. I think it is very elegant and totally frames your work very nicely. I also really love this flower set Baby Blossoms. So I made so thank you cards I was needing. I made 10 of them in three different colors. I started out with only one rose on the front and couldnt leave it alone and ended up with two. For the pinks I used Pixie Pink, Rose Red and Real Red. Old Olive for all the stems. The yellows are Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry and More Mustard. The blues I just went with two blues Baja Breeze and Not Quite Navy. I know I have said this quite a few times BUT, I am so glad they brought back Baja Breeze. I just love it. I also really like Marina Mist. I think I have been ordering every ribbon in that color.
Happy Stamping!

1st Card of the New Year!

Cherry Tilda Turned Blueberry!
So I am just loving these new stampin up products but I am sure I have said that once or twice already.
My cute little Tilda Magnolia is Cherry Tilda but I have changed the cherries into blueberries to go with one of the challenge themes.
I am using this card for 4 different Magnolia challenges.
Totally Tilda  Ribbon & Roses
Magnolia-licious Highlites  Recipe-4 flowers, 3 types of patterned papers, 2 images and 1 ribbon
Magnolia Stamp Lovers  Blues
AND
Just Magnolia  Anything Goes
I have used all stampin up products except for Tilda. Springtime Vintage Designer Papers, Vintage flowers, baja breeze cardstock, Sincere salutations, ribbon and Baby blossoms stamp set with Baja Breeze, Not Quite Navy and Old Olive ink pads. Also the frame is stampin up also.
I guess there were a few other none stampin up products, Martha stewart punch, nestiblities, and copic markers.
Happy Stamping!
