Fab Friday 155 - Big Dill

 This Fab Friday layout challenge was perfect timing for this great idea I had using the Flowering Desert stamp set!

Here is the link to the Fab Friday 155 Challenge!


 Doesn't this adorable little cactus stamp look just like a pickle?? This is where my imagination went, and I totally made it into a jar of pickles card, complete with cute pun!

Forgive my handwritten sentiment, I didn't have a small enough alphabet stamp set to make one that way.


Stamps: Flowering Desert, Jar of Love

Paper: Gingham Gala DSP, Garden Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White, Window Sheets

Ink: Garden Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Versamark

Accessories: Everyday Jars Framelits, Gold Embossing Powder, Stitched Shapes Framelits, Enamel Dots

Fab Friday 104 - Soft Sugarplum Vanilla Tea

Time again for another Fab Friday challenge.  You can find the challenge blog here: Fab Friday 104

This week is a color challenge, and it is a beautiful combo!


Here is what I came up with using some of my favorite goodies:


Stamps: Timeless Textures, Delicate Details
Paper: Soft Sky, Very Vanilla, Sweet Sugarplum
Ink: Sweet Sugarplum, Soft Sky
Accessories: Cups & Kettle Framelits, Fancy Frost Sequins, Clear Wink of Stella

I kept this pretty simple.  I took a scrap of thin paper to use as a mask, masking the upper portion of the card, then stamping Timeless Textures in the open area in Sweet Sugarplum, then used a sponge to add more ink and smooth out the lines.  I stamped the stain rings after.

Reversing the mask to cover the table, stamped the steam and splatter in Soft Sky.

Cut out the small tea cup, and again masking to stamp the lace along the top of the cup.  I masked a thin strip along the top and bottom and sponged Sweet Sugarplum ink.

Cut out the heart steam shape in Sweet Sugarplum, added clear wink of stella.

Added a few sequins for a little extra bling.

Love the simple look.  Thanks for looking today!

Fab Friday 102 - Red Emerald Crumb Cake Christmas Spirit

Time for another Fab Friday challenge blog post, using these fabulous colors!


So rich and pretty together! You can find the link to the Fab Friday challenges Here

And here is my card, I had some fun with this lovely color theme!


Stamps: Delicate Details, Star of Light, Totally Trees
Ink: Crumb Cake, Real Red, Emerald Envy
Paper: Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Real Red, Red Foil Paper
Accessories: Emerald Envy Baker's Twine, Rose Garden Thinlits, Starlight Thinlits, Fancy Frost Sequins, Gold Wink of Stella

Stamped the lace background using Crumb Cake and the largest lace stamp in the new SAB 2017 stamp set, Delicate Details.

Trees stamped using Real Red and Emerald Envy, plus Crumb Cake for the Star.  I used Gold Wink of Stella to color the detailed star outline and snow images to stamp the gold onto the tree and star image.  Cut out with scissors.

The star comes from the Starlight Thinlits with Red Foil paper.

The sentiment is from the Star of Light stamp set.  The die to cut it out is from Rose Garden dies, then I adhered a layer of red behind it and cut around it for an extra layer of color.

Thanks for visiting me today!
