Hi Friends,
I love water-coloring and I LOVE this Waterfront stamp set!
It is so versatile for so many occasions!
And before you laugh too hard, I DID create this video last Friday –April 13th! Just a week later I got to publish it!!!
Here is the finished card.
What do YOU think?
Check out my video below and see how fast and easy it is to make!

Here are the directions:
- Base of card is Night of Navy CS cut at 4 1/4″ x 11″ and scored at 5 1/2″
- Next is a layer of Soft Suede CS cut at 5 1/4″ x 4″and Snailed onto the base.
- Next is a layer of Night of Navy CS cut at 5 x 3/3/4″ and Snailed onto the Soft Suede layer.
- Take a piece of Water Color paper, cut to 3 x 4 1/2″ and start the FUN!
- Starting from the bottom, I used Marina Mist ink for the water shadow.
- Then using Night of Navy ink, I added the water lines.
- Next I used Soft Suede and added the sandy beach and the trees.
- Then using Old Olive, the mountains were stamped full strength and stamped off.
- The sun was stamped with Crushed Curry –and the message in Night of Navy.
- The inside is a piece of Whisper White stamped with the trees and mountains and I did the same thing to the envelope! (no naked envelopes in my house!!!)
VOILA!!!!! Fast and easy –and so so pretty.

Hi Friends,
Now, I know these cards really speak to Valentine’s Day….
HOWEVER .. I want to let you know that they both are retiring -the stamp set (Sure Do Love You) AND the gorgeous
Painted With Love Specialty Designer Series paper.
I have to say that this Designer Series paper may have been one of my all time favorites. And it might be YOURS too.
If it IS–this is the time to order some!
It is going very fast and once the paper is gone –IT IS GONE !!!!!!!!!!!!
The same holds true for the stamp set.
This set does have other applications –not just for Valentine’s Day.
Birthdays or that special event –maybe an anniversary –or simply to send someone you love a very pretty card!
SO if these tickle the cockles of YOUR heart, make sure you place an order to get them now!
May 31st will be here before we know it –and POOF!!! All gone!
Be sure to check out the Retiring List for all products leaving our current Annual Catalog.

If you haven’t had time to check out Pinterest– using THIS GORGEOUS PAPER –you MIGHT want to do so!
So many beautiful and easy samples!
We’ve made a lot in my classes and you can too!
These were made using an hombre of Peek A Boo Peach and Berry Burst inks. The second card uses Night of Navy.
I love how simple and FAST they were to make!
The base is the usual 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 Whisper White. The layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
Then I used the Layering Ovals Framelits to ‘Big Shot’ the images. Popped that layer on with Dimensional ( under a piece of ribbon..just knotted once for an added dimension.
I used some Gold Foil paper to punch out a butterfly and ..voila!
What do YOU think?
With his card, I followed the same dimensions as above but layered the message onto a pic of Copper Foil Paper.
The sentiments come from another fabulous Sale A Bration set. Happy Wishes.

HI Friends,
I am a big fan of Embossing Paste.
This card, inspired by Stamping With Joy, uses the White Paste with the the Patterned Party Decorative mask.
It is EASY to use. It dries very quickly and the texture it adds is lovely. The Oh So Eclectic Bundle is fun to use and the colors are so fresh and pretty.
I also added a Faceted Jewel to the center of one flower…just another eye appealing dimension!

Hi Friends,
I love this card.
I love the Crumb Cake base.
I love the Soft Suede layer AND I LOVE the Basket Weave Embossing Folder.
Using Calypso Coral makes the image pop..
What do you think?
And coloring is one of my favorite things to do (I LOVED KINDERGARTEN!)
SO I used combinations of Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Old Olive, Soft Suede and Chocolate Chip inks ( and markers) with my Aqua Painter to paint the design of the basket from the Hanging Basket stamp set.
Added a piece of Calypso Coral ribbon and ta-da!
Card making is just the beginning of the giving process…. you make it, you SEND it and it appears in someone’s mail box!
What happens next is the smile on their face and the tender feeling in their heart…knowing that YOU created (or copied) a pretty card.. took time to write your message and send it on.
“It’s much more than rubber stamps my friend…”
