Queen Mary Vintage Birthday

It's time for a color challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  I wanted to go with a non-Christmas card with these colors.  When I was scanning through my stamps this one struck me as the one!  It's called "Traveler".  It looks like the Queen Mary that's docked out here in Long Beach, California.  It's a major tourist attraction.  The little pop of Cherry Cobbler was a perfect fit. 

Hop on over there to Hand Stamped Sentiments and join us for the fun!!

Happy Stamping,

Krista

Lullaby DSP and Amazing Birthday

 There is GOLD and SPARKLE on this card, I promise!!  

I used Gold Foil Paper for 2 of the banners and then sequin stars and circles.  Can you find them?

This card made the Display Board at the Stampin' Up! Convention, too.  It's a great card to make if you like sparkle and layers.

The DSP is Lullaby.  The colors are Hello Honey, Crisp Canteloupe and Baked Brown Sugar and Gold of course.

Happy Birthday Cutie

I'm trying to be better about blogging all that I make.  I have SO many things I haven't showed you in the past, but it's about time I share all the fun I have.  :)  This card is for my friend that ordered cards for her daughters to give to their friends.  Her daughters dance, so I thought this image from the "Sweet Stuff" stamp set was perfect.

For the background I used the Sweet Taffy DSP.  The colors on the card are Smoky Slate, Melon Mambo and Whisper White.  I added some rhinestones for the bling and there you have it!  

Happy Stamping,

Krista

Oh, Happy Day

It's Sketch time at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  This is challenge #180. 

Here it is...

I have been wanting to use the Starburst Sayings stamp set with the coordinating Framelits. This sketch was perfect with the different sizes of images.  

Here is my card....

I used the Sweet Sorbet DSP from the Sale-a-bration FREE items as my color palette. Can you see a little bit of it?  It's the medium size starburst in the top left.  Then I added some of the awesome FREE Pool Party bakers twine and the arrows Embossing Folder for the background. I HAD to add some bling with the rhinestones too!! 

I really like the way this turned out!

Happy Stamping,

Krista
