I know we all have “quirks”…. one of my “things” is…. I can’t sit down and let my mind go unless the house is clean, the laundry is done, yard it mowed, etc. etc. etc. Lets just say I am a wee bit of a neat freak and can’t relax til things are taken care of.
I have been trying to take Fridays off in the Summer and since the weather this weekend was nothing short of “rained out”, I was able to get all the chores done on Friday. Saturday I held a “Classic Christmas Cards In July” Class. The ladies went home with some beautiful creations and lots of inspiration. So today I sat down and did my thing.
I have been asked to do some cards for a Wedding Shower (it isn’t til next July). The bride had specific colours and style in mind (something seen in a Bridal magazine). I came up with a prototype to show them tomorrow. The colour combination got me thinking so I made some cards for me using the same colours and same stamp set.
and because we all know I can never make just “one” card…. here are two more….
Stamp Set: Kind and Caring Thoughts – SU Hostess Level 3 (2009-2010 Catty)
Ink / Paper: Cameo Coral, Ruby Red, So Saffron, More Mustard, Old Olive
Ribbon: Old Olive.
DSP: So Saffron (old Hostess Level 1 paper)
Misc: Dazzling Diamonds (cuz you just need some bliiiing)
Have a good one.

I am so lovin’ this stamp set and you have made gorgeous designs with it here. I love the blending of colors and while I’m only getting a peek of the DD I can easily imagine the bling perfectly!! Wonderful cards! Great inspiration for us. TFS!
This is a gorgeous color combo – I can see why you decided to make your own cards using it. I just love that stamp set!!
It’s nice that you have a big lead on the wedding shower cards. Sometimes that’s worse for me – I just keep putting it off because I know I have lots of time…it’s amazing how fast time flies 🙂
Very pretty cards! I like your colors and I really love that stamp. I hadn’t really thought much of it in the catalog, but you did a great job with it.
Oh yes, you do just need some bling! 🙂 I love the colors…my fav is the one with the paisley bg paper. I am so glad I have this set, too!
Very pretty!
