Morning Meadow Thank You Card

Today's card was made from some of  the new StampIn Up! In colors for  2013-2015. Pistachio Pudding, crisp cantaloupe  and Strawberry Slush. I also added a bit of Pool Party because it goes great with the all the new In colors. I used a new hostess set called  Morning Meadow and stamped with the Pistachio Pudding ink. I still can't get over how easy the new ink pads are to use. I have stamped 6-8 images in the past to get a perfect one but this time it took one time - a miracle for me :-) I added some dimensionals and rhinestones to make everything pop! I also used two embossing folders - Lattice and Elegant Bouquet.

Elegant Thank you Card

Today's card was made with the Stampin Up! set called Elegant Greetings. Cardstock is Primrose Petals and Early Expresso. Ink is Chocolate Chip and Primrose Petals. I used the new ink pads and they are so amazing. I am surprised every time how bold they are. Last year the first color I ordered after I saw the new colors was Primrose Petals. I forget to use it so I am making an effort to use it before the new colors come out and I am totally obsessed with them. They are so cute. I think of them as ice cream colors. Wait until you see them. I should be posting cards with them in the next few days. Stitched satin ribbon and pearls were added for embellishment.

Lilac Stippled Blossoms Birthday Card

I love the SU Stippled Blossoms. Here is my latest card using the set. I used SU designer paper along with Almost Amethyst and Lovely Lilac cardstock. Ink is the same colors along with Green Galore and Gable Green. I embellished the image with tiny pearls. I also added lace and ribbon. The label was cut with StampIn Up! labels framelits.

Mother's Day Bling Card

I made my dear hubby's Mom a card for Mother's Day In the last post so now I made one for my Mom. I used a stamp set from Gina K called Festive Frames and an old PSX stamp for the sentiment. Cardstock is Summer Starfruit and Basic Gray. Designer paper is Beau Chateau. I adde some tiny crystals and little flowers from the punch pack by StampIn Up! Finally I added a Butterfly from an MS punch aEmbellished with crystals and SU Summer Starfruit Stitched Satin Ribbon.

Card Color Change

The first card for today is a redo of yesterday's card.  Something was bothering me about the color combination so I took it apart and used Basic Gray instead of Island Indigo. I like this combination so much better. Sometimes I take a card apart many times before I am satisfied. I am so glad Stampin Up is coming out with another gray. It is lighter and will make some beautiful color combinations. I can't wait to use it!
