Sending Smiles with Daffodil Delight

I am really loving this Sending Smiles stamp set and dies. As you know, I love a layered card, and this one suits the bill. I embossed the white piece, added a small piece of retired dsp, and then layered Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, and Basic white card stock. I stamped my flower with Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, and the center of the flower with Soft Suede. The flower was cut out using the dies, and popped up using Dimensionals. My sentiment is from the same stamp set, and the die for sentiment from the dies. The ribbon, in Old Olive is long retired!
OK...that's it! Enjoy. I  hope you come back another day, to see what I have been up to!
Till next time...Barb

Friends are Like Seashells

Hello all, 
Glad you stopped by to have a look! Today's card is made, following a tic tac toe challenge, we were recently given in a swap I participate in. I chose, Feminine, Friendship and Square, to make my card. I am loving, as I call them, In the water cards. Many components complete this square card. Some current and some retired. I used the Seashells 3D embossing folder, and then trimmed out the part I wanted on my card. The Seaside Seashells die was used and again I trimmed out what I wanted. Beautiful retired dsp helped me out. Blushing Bride cardstock is the colour choice, and a retired Embossing folder made the Gorgeous background. The little Seahorse is retired, and my greeting is from Friends are Like Seashells. I love the greeting, it is so true! How do you think I did? 
Till next time...happy creating!

Sending Smiles

Recently I watched a U-tube video,  and this Interactive card was made, using the Sending Smiles stamp and dies.
The card is folds and pieces. I chose Gorgeous Grape cardstock, and stamped the flowers using another purple colour, since I didn't Gorgeous Grape ink! Old Olive and Daffodil Delight complete the inked flowers. The dsp I used is from a retired pack. Inside the card, "Sending"is cut from Basic white, mounted on Gorgeous Grape. I love it! I think I will try and make another card using this Fold.
Till next time...Happy Crafting!

Friends are Like Seashells

I made this fun card, using the Friends Are Like Seashells stamp set and various dies from other sets. Next to flowers, I think I really enjoy sealife stamps and dies. Lots of elements make up this card, Embossing folder, dsp, Bakers twine, blends, sponging, Inks, dies and of course cs! It took me a couple of hours to make!
Thanks for stopping by!

On my day off this week, I spent a lot of ot in my Craftroom. I recently bought a stamp set from a buy and sell site. My friend has it...and does not like it! I searched Pinterest for cards using " Enjoy the Moment", and found one I liked. This is my take on the card. It's actually one of my favorite cards I have made! What do you think?
