Always and Forever
Another retiring stamp set here... Always Elegant. I love this set for wedding cards. And I love doing wet embossing for wedding cards. This is a CASE of Candice's card.
I used Primrose Petals, a new In-Color for 2012-2014. Isn't this a pretty dusty rose color? A tip for you here: do the border punching BEFORE you emboss. This particular embossing folder embosses pretty deeply. If you punch after, I'm afraid cardstock might get stuck in your punch. Note, this particular border punch, Eyelet Border, is retiring. Get yours before it's gone!

Triple Triple Treats
Now that I started on a Triple Treat Flower kick, I can't get enough of this stamp!!! Isn't the flower sooooo pretty???
The first card is inspired by THIS CARD I saw on splitcoaststampers.com. I don't have Lace Ribbon punch that she used (it's retiring in a few days, BTW), so I improvised. The colors here are Bravo Burgundy, Mello Moss (retired), Baja Breeze and Crumb Cake. The DSP is Paisley Petals, which is retiring also.
This next one is inspired by THIS CARD. I have never thought to put 2 different pieces of DSP together, but it sure works! And they work because they are from the same DSP pack, which you know will coordinate with each other flawlessly anyways. The DSP here is from Spice Cake DSP from the last holiday mini catalog. Which means, it's retired already. Sorry. But we do have FABRIC in these patterns. I think I have at least one pack of it itching to be used. I will make something and show you. Oops, tangent. Back to the card, I decided I needed a border for the DSP pieces, so I added that. Then I decided the main piece was too big, so I cut it down. Then I moved things around until I got this. The sentiment is from the retiring Sincere Salutations. I will be really sad when this set officially retires. It's such a wonderful set. I love the sentiments, I love the font. I don't find anything in the new catalog that's similar. So if you like it, you better order it before it's permanently gone!
Colors here are: Soft Suede, Baja Breeze, More Mustard.
The last card for today is a CASE of THIS CARD. I love the simplicity of it. I used the retiring Chantilly Crochet Trim ribbon and Heard from the Heart set.

So Long, Look Who's Turning
Here's a card that I apparently never shared with you. It uses the soon-to-retire Look Who's Turning set.
This set is great for making kid cards. On the inside of the card, I stamped the row of numbers that's also in this set. Highlighted the number for the child's new age. Aren't the animals in this set so cute? I think I might have to keep this set around for another while longer, just so I can keep playing with them. My kids also like using this set.
Remember you can still get this stamp set through 5/31/12.

Fabric Friday - Snack Bag
I'm back for another Fabric Friday! I was just too sick to do any posting last week. Today's project is a little reusable snack treat bag. I followed the tutorial from HERE.
I made a couple of different sizes, just for fun.
I also tried our Big Shot Fabric Adhesive Roll to attach fabric to fabric. This worked like a charm!
Also, I decided to sew a top-stitch line just under the velcro, just because. :)
The small bag on top is from Twitterpated Designer Fabric. The bottom one is from Summer Smooches Designer Fabric. The stars are from left over Springtime Vintage Designer Fabric on my table, and were cut using the retiring Stars #2 Big Shot die.

Good Bye, Baroque Motifs
This beautiful stamp set is retiring in a week!
My good demo friend from Florida, Pam of Stampin' in the Sun, had made a beautiful card using an upcoming new stamp set. Although I don't yet have that particular stamp set that Pam has, I was just itching to CASE her card. So, I took her card as inspiration and came up with this, using Baroque Motifs, a retiring stamp set.
The bottom portion is stamped with the different smaller stamps in the set. I use a piece of scrap paper as a guide, so I don't accidentally stamp too far up. The ribbon was a Clearance Rack find last year or the year before.
The small flowers on top were done using the Itty Bitty punch pack. I think I managed to use just about every stamp in that set, except for the word, Kind.
Remember you can still get this stamp set through 5/31/12.
