Bloomin Marvelous Friend

This card is a variation of one I’ve done before – just a different sentiment.  This sentiment is from Paper Pumpkin – did you sign up for the first kit?  I had a few of these cards in various states of “together – ness” – so I switched out the sentiment to give it a different look. 

This is one of the cards I did with a group of middle schoolers.  At least, this is what I designed.  What they created were flower gardens!  I so wish I had taken a picture – but it was moving fast around there   The centers on my card were done with a Rose Red Stampin Write marker after inking up with Pretty in Pink.  (and that funny looking thing next to the sentiment is a rhinestone – really, it is!)  It is amazing what happens with paper and ink sometimes!

Shoebox Swap

We are at Leadership in Orlando!  Last night we went to a shoebox swap – where everyone brings the cards and all the parts and we stamp them.  I brought the card on the bottom – inspired by the card on the top.  In order to keep things simple (like carrying ink and cleaning supplies) I ended up using just one color (Pool Party) and stamping/stamping off to create some depth.

Supplies
Stamp Set – Bloomin Marvelous (SA
card stock- Whisper White, Pool Party, Jet Black Stazon
Ink – Pool Party, Lucky Limeade, Calypso Coral
Etc- Small Butterfly punch, rhinestone

Off to Harry Potter World tonight – then more stampin’ fun tomorrow!  Hugs, Fran
