Delicate Dahlias

Wishing You The Happiest Of Birthdays

September 30, 2021 · 2 Comments

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Today is sadly, the last day for Sale-a-bration and all the perks that go along with it!

And, it is also our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

Here is our current color challenge –

Here is my bold take on the challenge –

I combined a favorite stamp of mine, the Happiest of Birthdays –

….with the Sale-a-bration stamp set, Delicate Dahlias –

This color combination is just great together! My added color is Soft Succulent.

To get this sentiment image stamped so nicely, I did use the Stamparatus. Although, this stamp works pretty well. The Stamparatus is just an extra assurance the image will come out nicely!

Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop – Goodbye Sale-a-Bration

September 18, 2021 · Leave a Comment

Welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week features saying goodbye to Sale-a-bration.

Well, this Sale-a-bration has just flown by! I got this Delicate Dahlias early on and haven’t inked it up much.

It is soo pretty! This is the gorgeous stamp set –

Beautiful, right!?!?

I stamped the inner of the two step stamps in Cajun Craze three times. I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set, embossing the whole panel using the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.

The Cajun Craze piece was embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. It just softened the card. Nice for a sympathy card!

Last, the card needed something. I thought the Linen Thread was just the thing!

This stamp set can be yours with a qualifying purchase through the end of the month.

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great projects to inspire us!

Sending Heartfelt Sympathy

Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary challenge!

Here is our current color challenge –

I haven’t played with the Sale-a-bration stamp set, Delicate Dahlias yet –

So I did today as these colors were perfect for this flower –

Right? Isn’t this just stunning?

I used the Stamparatus too stamp this two-step flower. First the border in Cinnamon Cider, then the inside of the flower in So Saffron, twice. It made such nice shading for this!

One of the patterns in the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper was a perfect accent to this card –

I thought these colors were nice for a sympathy card, although any of these sentiments in this set would have worked well for this card!

The Scalloped Contours Dies were perfect for all this to be placed on before the card base!

So what do you think? Pretty sweet, right?

This is a Sale-a-bration stamp set! To see all the Sale-a-bration options this fall, click here, or the image –
