A Sparkly Flower Stem

Posted on June 24, 2013 by amyoneillblog

I love the Morning Meadow stamp set, which is a hostess set. Not only does it have great focal images, but it also has two very useful sentiments (thank you, and happy birthday). For this card, I used the focal image which is a stem of pretty flowers. I put some Dazzling Details on the flowers to add a little sparkle.

Enjoy your Monday! Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies Used:
Stamps: Morning Meadow
Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Calypso Coral
Paper: Island Indigo, Calypso Coral, Whisper White, Gingham Garden dsp
Embellishments: Island Indigo 3/4″ Chevron Ribbon, Dazzling Details

Simple Morning Meadow Pansy

Posted on June 21, 2013 by amyoneillblog

This year’s catalog has some really great hostess sets. On this simple and quick card, I’ve used the Morning Meadow set. The flower in it coordinates with the Pansy Punch. Love that! I also used a wheel, Viola’s Lace. I used to be so frustrated with wheels because I could never get my images straight. But now I remove the stamps from the wheels and mount them on the Clear-Mount Cling Foam (page 197 in the catalog), and then use them like regular stamps — perfect every time!

I used a color combination that I got from the Color Coach — Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie. I think it’s a great summer color scheme.

Enjoy your Friday! Thanks for stopping by!
