No Stamp card

Hello again friends

Have been in my stamp room making cards
waiting for the backyard to dry up so we can
start the clean up.  Hoping to open the pond
this weekend.  Fish are venturing up to the top
of the water lately and our babies from last
summer have grown!

I purchased a paper pack and matching
sentiment pieces from my local stamp store
by Kanban Crafts which feature flowers.
The papers were so pretty, I didn't use
and stamps while making the cards! (WHAT!)

Card #1
Layered card



the Inside

The second card
A gate-fold card with a belly band

Thanks for stopping by
Have a great day.
Until later.....

Hello friends! 
First time it hasn't rain in days and I see a little peek of sun.


My local stamp store owner does a facebook post at least
one day a week showing what's new in the store and
sharing a card from beginning to end. She recently
shared a card with a layering die from Altenew (Zinnia's)

I went into my back room to check out my dies to see
if I had any layering flower dies, and much to my surprise
I did and the package had never been opened! Shame 
on me, because this is not the only unused stuff I have...

So I made a card with it in soft colors and a beautiful
embossing folder background.



Flower Dies are Dies by Chloe
Embossing Folder is Crafters Companion

Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a great day.
Until Later

LITTLE GIRL BEAR AND BALLOONS

Hello friends. I have been having fun with the new Embossing Folder and die sets
by Lisa Horton.  They are such fun and turn out so beautiful.

For this card the Balloons are one one of the sets available.


                                                                               
Bear Stamp is very old (1999) (Hampton Art Stamps

                                         Grass is a die                                 


Balloons is the Lisa Horton Embossing Folder and die set
which I colored then used clear glitter to make them sparkle
The background sky/coud paper is from Paper Wishes



I also made a envelope from an old stamp for this fun card.

Thanks for stopping by for a peek.
