Snow, snow, snow and freezing temperatures mean it’s time to break out Spring colors and look forward to Sale a Bration!  This is Petal Parade – a free set with a $50 purchase – and the technique is masking.  I stamped the 2 largest, solid images on post it notes and masked them off as I added the other colors.  (Start with the largest images and work your way down to the smallest)

The bottom of the card is embossed with Adorning Accents.  It adds a nice, subtle touch.

Supplies
Stamp Set – Petal Parade
Card Stock – Strawberry Slush, Whisper White, Basic Black
Ink – Pistachio Pudding, Crisp Cantaloupe, Strawberry Slush, Calypso Coral
Etc – Crisp Cantaloupe ribbon, Adorning Accents embossing folder, Basic Pearls

I can’t for the life of me figure out which set I used for the sentiment!  Does anyone recognize it?  Hugs, Fran

Need more Valentine ideas?  This cello topper started as a 3 x 3 piece of Pretty in Pink.  Score it at 1 1/2 and use the heart  design in the Adorning Accents Folders pack to emboss some hearts.  Then add a heart (Happy Heart – single) and add some glimmer paper.  But the cutest part is the little  pieces on the ends of the kisses.  Barb Mulikin came up with this idea to make little “conversation circles” in My Digital Studio and put them on kisses – cute idea! 

Supplies
Stamp Set – Happy Heart (Single stamp Holiday 2012)
card stock – Pretty in Pink, Whisper White, Silver Glimmer paper
Ink – Real Red

A little treat for someone sweet!  Hugs, Fran

I cased the main element off a card that Diana Gibbs cased from Glenda Travelstead – it’s a circle of casing!- and turned it into a 3 x 3 gift card and gift bag.  Now I have a set for Valentines day.  When running the gift bag through the Big Shot, I used no tabs and it was still pretty snug. 

Supplies
Stamp Sets – Hearts a Flutter, Fabulous Phrases
card stock – Pretty in Pink, Very Vanilla
Ink – Early Espresso
Etc – Adorning Accents embossing folder, Very Vanilla seam binding, Flower trim, Artisan Kit lace, Early Espresso ribbon, Hearts a Flutter framelits

Thanks Di (and Glenda!) for a cute idea.  Hugs, Fran

I think it means “Street Flowers.”  Maybe someone with a better handle on the french language will correct me if I wrong. 

Stamp Set – Rue des Fleurs
card stock – Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla, Beau Chateau DSP
Ink – Early Espresso
Stampin Write Marker – Pink Pirouette
Etc – Big Scallop Circle and Edgleit dies, hat pin, Itty Bitty Shapes punch, Edgelit embossing folder

The card base is Pink Pirouette and the inside is lined with Very Vanilla so it just peeks out.  Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran

You might get tired of this card layout before I’m done.  Maybe that’s why it’s featured in the Occasions Mini!  So here it is again in Baja Breeze –

I used Dazzling Details on some of the flowers – not sure you can see it in the photo, but it’s there!  I also want to add that at first I didn’t really like Dazzling Details.  It seems to smear and not be very sparkly.  I have totally changed my mind – because I finally shook the bottle up a bit!  Now it’s even, sparkly, and on about every other project I’m doing!

I hung some little flowers from a Vintage Trinket pin –

This is the card I did for my mom’s birthday.  Not only is it a birthday card – it’s a sneak peek of products in the upcoming Occasions Mini.  A double duty card!  The design is based on the card shown in the mini catalog.





What a great set!

Supplies
Stamp Set – Apothecary Art (Occasions Mini 125525/125527)
card stock – Poppy Parade, Always Artichoke, watercolor paper
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Poppy Parade, Real Red, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake
Etc – Framelits Label Collection, Edgelits Die, Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Poppy Parade ribbon, Victorian Lace, Hat Pin, Dazzling Details, Basic Rhinestone, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Vintage Trinkets pins, Always Artichoke seam binding

The Dazzling Details was used on the roses – just a touch.  Because the Hat Pin was so close to the edge cut with the Edgelit die, I put a drop of Crystal Effects on the point.  Didn’t want my mom to get stuck opening her birthday card!  There is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful pleated ribbon in the mini but not in Poppy parade.  So I used glue dots to make my own.  I’m wishing for this ribbon in every color – it’s just beautiful!  (I think I said that!)  So my mom’s birthday card ended up being the perfect time to try lots of the goodies in the Occasions mini!  Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran
