The Seasons of Chic bundle will meet all your card making needs, it contains images from all four season and detailed dies to match. I chose sea shells and summer colors, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Mango Melody and So Saffron to build my design. I tore strips of the Masking Paper and removed the backing, it is really sticky ,I suggest you reduce some of the sticky by putting the Masking Paper on and off your pants or shirt then apply to the top and bottom of your Basic White layer. Next with Blender Brushes make sections of Blushing Bride, So Saffron and Calypso Coral. Stamp the sea shell on the masked area three times then slowly and carefully remove the Masking Paper.

  During my first look at the Annual Catalog several months ago, I fell in love with the Sunny Splash stamp set. Those retro suits remind me of my younger days and all the fond memories of swimming at Lake Byron. And the style of suits are popular again I see looking at current advertisements. The color selection came from the KoolAid colors of the Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper. The suits are easy to fussy cut and add to the card. The Fun Flowers Resin Shapes add the finishing touch to this card.

  This Open House card featured a favorite Sale A Bration bundle, Wonderful World. The stamp set features an English Rose, French Iris and German Cone Flower and are from the Dist In k Tive line, which means the images are detailed and have shading built in the image. We tried a new inking technique, we used blending brushed to apply ink to the stamp, this resulted in a better detail image, than taking the ink pad directly to the stamp (which tends to over ink a detailed stamp). The Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder produces a nice design to back up the stamped image.      Have a Wonderful Day Cindy Loen Wonderful World Bundle (English) [ 159918 ] Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder & Die [ 159168 ] Stylish Shapes Dies [ 159183 ] Orchid Oasis 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock [ 159267 ] Mossy Meadow 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [ 133676 ] Basic White 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock [ 159276 ] Orchid Oa...
