Here is one of the cards we did at club today:

Stamps: Simply Said
Paper: Whisper White, Pretty In Pink, Certainly Celery, So Saffron
Ink: Pretty In Pink, So Saffon, Old Olive
Accessories: 1 3/8 square punch, Soft Subtles Buttons, Uni-ball Signo Gel Pen, Crafters Tool Kit, Mini Glue Dots

It’s kinda hard to see but there are two thin strips of Pretty In Pink cardstock at the bottom. I used the 1 3/8 square punch to create the banner, just stick the right edge of the celery cardstock into the corner of the square punch.

I saw this card on Robin Spinner’s blog and just had to case it. Isn’t it adorable?! I wanted to try it with Stem Sayings and love how it turned out. The words look like they’re blowing along in the wind right along with the flowers.

Stamps: Time For You, Stem Sayings
Paper: Pretty In Pink, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Gray, Going Gray, Pixie Pink, Creamy Caramel, Brocade Blue
Accessories: Brocade Blue 5/8 Grosgrain Ribbon

I wanted to teach my club and my downline the emerging color technique. Here is the card I had them make:

Stamps: Fabulous Flowers
Paper: Whisper White, River Rock, Bravo Burgundy, Ginger Blossom DSP
Ink: Ruby Red, Groovy Guava, So Saffron, Bravo Burgundy, Versamark
Accessories: Brayer, Clear EP, Bravo Burgundy 5/8 Grosgrain Ribbon, Dimensionals
Techniques: Emerging Color

I absolutely love the Tart & Tangy set that was in the Occasions mini catalog. I’m really hoping it will be in an upcoming catalog along with the summer picnic paper. My theory is they didn’t use any incolors with the paper and the set goes perfectly with the paper so maybe we’ll see both again.

Here are two really simple cards I made with that set:

Stamps: Tart & Tangy, Sincere Salutations
Paper: Only Orange, Old Olive, Whisper White, Summer Picnic DSP
Ink: Only Orange Craft Ink, Old Olive Classic Ink
Accessories: Clear EP mixed with kool-aid, Crafters Tool Kit, Dimensionals, scallop & circle punches
Technique: Scratch -n- Sniff

Stamps: Tart & Tangy, Sincere Salutations
Paper: Real Red, Old Olive, Whisper White, Summer Picnic DSP
Ink: Real Red, Basic Black and Old Olive Classic Ink
Accessories: Dimensionals, scallop & circle punches
