White Wedding Card

We have our friends getting married this weekend, so I set out to make a card for them.

I made this card using Cardabilities sketch #102 and Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge to use white.  The background is made using an embossing folder.  The stamp set is by Inkadinkado.  Added some I Am Roses flowers, ribbon, and pearl stamen and spray.

Papertrey Ink Trading Card Challenge

The celebration continues on the Papertrey Ink blog.  This time the challenge is to create a 3x4 trading card. Here I incorporated it into a greeting card. 

 

 

I used PTI Celebrations and Vintage Labels stamp sets, stamped with Versamark and heat embossed it in white on PTI ocean tides cardstock, then rounded the corners.  The pattern paper is My Mind's Eye Sweet Caroline, and added lace and I Am Roses flowers.

A Ladies Diary Card

I made a card for a coworker who retired last month.  I wanted to make it extra special for her.  I used Graphic 45 A Ladies Diary paper and stickers to create the easel card:

The stamps are from Papertrey Ink: Simply Jane, Calendar Basics, and Celebrations stamp set and coordinating die.  I also used I Am Roses flowers, added doilies, lace trim, string, pearl flourish, and ivory ribbon.

The sticker tag on the bottom is what holds the easel card up.  I added a little chipboard piece behind it to prop it up.

I made a pocket on the inside of the card to hold a couple of journaling cards for us coworkers to sign.  It will also be a place to put our gift card for her.

Nov. IAR Challenge

There is a challenge over at the I Am Roses blog to create with your favorite flower.  Mine is the carnation.

On this project, I used carnations, leaves, and stamen by I Am Roses.  This card was also made for the Graphic 45 November challenge on Facebook to make a thank you card.  I used Graphic 45's French Country papers, stamp, and chipboard piece (behind the flower cluster).  Other products used is a Spellbinders die, Papertrey Ink thank you stamp, black seam binding and lace trim.

Mojo Monday 300th Sketch

I saw that they're having a celebration at the Mojo Monday blog and wanted to join in.  Here is the card I made based on the sketch

I used the 8x8 French Country paper pad by Graphic 45 and the coordinating stamp set to created the sentiment focal image.  The base is Papertrey Ink Dark Chocolate cardstock and the doily die cut from the G45 paper is also a Papertrey Ink doily die.  Added a burlap trim and I Am Roses sunflower and leaves to complete the card.

Thanks for taking a look.

I Am Roses April Challenge

I decided to make a project for the I Am Roses "Journal Me This" Challenge.  Here is the journal cover I made:

The I Am Roses petals I used were P20's and P25's.  I sprayed them with Lindy's Stamp Gang Dark Chocolate Truffle and stamped a script stamp in Encore Gold Ink.  I then curled the edges and manipulated the centers with a mouse pad and the round end of a paint brush so it would curl up.

Thanks for taking a look!

                            Mimi
