Color Hues #66

We have a new color duo over at the the Color Hues Color Challenge for Challenge #66!

The challenges are zooming right on by and Challenge #66 is the perfect combination to welcome summer! I used the lovely Birthday Blooms from The Greetery, The flowers are so easy to line up for stamping and hug the sentiments beautifully! I stamped using Catherine Pooler Inks in Limoncello, Glitz, Lime Rickey and Eucalyptus! I made a 4 1/2' x 4 1/2" square card for one of my favourite square card loving friends for her birthday!



After I stamped the flowers and the sentiment I cut it with an older (I think retired now) MFT Stamps Scalloped Square. This is one of my favourite dies to use when I make square cards.


I popped up the scalloped square with foam tape and I modified a regular envelope to accommodate my square card. I won't give you the instructions because there were way too many steps and I'm sure there was an easier way to do it--lol!


Please pop over to the Color Hues if you have not been there yet and see the fabulous creations my teammates have made using yellow and green!

Thanks for stopping in and have a great day!

Scrap 'N Stamp Tonge-In-Cheek

Let's get things started for Father's Day next month. Today I am hopping with Scrap'n Stamp Canada for their Tongue-In-Cheek cards For Dad Blog Hop!

Comment here on my blog for your chance to win a $50 gift certificate to the Scrap'n Stamp Canada online store!

I have had the Lawn Fawn Flippin' Awesome dies for a long time and finally I had the opportunity to get it out and play! I used some of the silly Dad Puns from the Lawn Fawn Dad Jokes stamp set for each of the tabs!

My Dad was the king of Dad jokes and I was thinking about him when I made this card, he would have loved it. He will be missed this Father's Day for sure.

The Interactive mechanism was so east to put together!


I used the now retired Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid - Chill paper pad and the Flippin' Awesome Add-on dies for the scalloped base.

Color Hues #65

We have a new color duo over at the the Color Hues Color Challenge for Challenge #65!

I have to admit I was a bit stumped with these colours. I love them together, but wasn't sure what direction to take my card. I used an older set from MFT Stamps called Coffee Date. I really like how each of the images has an outline stamp and a solid stamp to fill it in. It has a groovy kind of vibe. 

 The images were stamped with Catherine Pooler Inks--Rockin' Red and Cummerbund!


The sentiment is from the MFT Stamps Coffee Order stamp set!
