And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness
and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

Delightful Daisies

Hello Friends...happy Saturday!  Are you ready for the weekend?  I have a couple of cards using Delightful Daisies, a stamp set designed by Nina Brackett for Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps that I never had a chance to share here on my blog.  


Creative Nugget:  This stamp set includes outline images which can be colored and solid images which can be stamped alone or layered with the outline image...LOVE!  For this card, Color Burst powders were watered down and painted onto the solid daisy images, spritzed with water, and stamped on watercolor paper. After that dried, the outline daisies were stamped. The butterfly is from the Made New stamp set and the white embossed sentiment is from the new Cheerful Hexies set.  The watercolor panel was stitched to a card front stamped with one of the textures  from Texture Tiles 1 and sponged with a little Oxide Ink.

My second card also uses Delightful Daisies.


Creative Nugget:  The outline daisies were stamped and colored with Copic Markers.  Then came the scary part...cutting out the strips for the sentiments.  The sentiments from the Scripty Thoughts stamp set were embossed on vellum strips which were wrapped around the colored strips.  The larger panels were popped up on fun foam while the sentiment strips were mounted directly onto the black panel.  A jute bow was added to finish the card.  This card design was inspired by a Jennifer McGuire video that I saw.  That's it, friends...3 flowers, 2 diagonal sentiment panels and 1 bow!

These cards will be submitted for the following challenges:












Thanks so much for stopping by...happy stamping, and have a wonderful weekend!

Friends Warm the Heart

Happy Friday, sweet friends!  I'm sharing a couple of cards on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog and here today using some of the products from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps February release.

Creative Nugget:   A background was created with Distress inks and the grid stamp from the Texture Tiles 1 stamp set.  The girls from the Girl Power 2 stamp set were colored with Copic Markers and cut out to add to the card.  The split sentiment and the tea cup are from a stamp set currently out of stock called Special Blend and the heart is from the Forever & Always stamp set.  I think you'll agree...nothing warms the heart like some special girl time!

Creative Nugget:  My second card uses the butterflies and sentiment from the Made New stamp set which happens to be the Stamp of the Month for the month of February and is free with a $75 purchase.  The background for this card was made using the Tissue Paper Bokeh Technique which can be found HERE.  The butterflies were stamped on a Distress Ink background from my stash, fussy cut and popped up onto the card.  Some Nuvo Drops were added to finish the card.


These cards will be submitted for the following challenges:


Thanks so much for stopping by.  May your heart be warmed not only by spending time with some special friends, but by the love of the Lord and His promise of new life in Him!

Hugs,
Cathy
