Tote-Ally Tess





Hi Everyone, well I've been playing with a new stamp set from the Mini Catalogue and been having a lot of fun with it, anyway the set is called Tote-Ally Tess which comes with Tess, a tote bag, a marker, a stamp, a flower, a stamping wheel, a card, along with words saying I love to stamp and also The best things in life are handmade, not bought, which I agree with. Anyway hope you enjoy looking at some different ideas on using this set. The first one is the one I started with using it as the sketch for Stamping 411. So check out all the rest of the gals cards and stuff as they do a great job with samples of the sketches.

Friendship - Black white and Silver



This is the card I've made for the Stamptacular challenge this week. It said to do a friendship card and only use the colors Black White and Silver.
I used two of the new stamp sets for this card Vintage Vogue and Tiny Tags
I made the background paper for this using whisper white and the motif from the tiny tags set, The Letter F and friends was made using the vintage vogue set stamped with versamark ink and then embossed using silver embossing powder, the ribbon is from my stash its a silk black ribbon and the small flowers the stick pin and all the pearls and clear beads are from the pretties kit. the silver paper was from my stash and I embossed it using the petals a plenty folder running it through the big shot.
Thanks for looking
Cindy

Abundant Hope



Here's a new card I did earlier in the week. I've not had much time to do anything as I've been sick. I hope to be able to do something tomorrow. Anyway this Sketch is from last Sunday's Stamptacular challenge. I used the new set from the mini catalogue to make this card along with some DP from SU as well. The set is called abundant hope. I love daffodils I think they are one of my favorite spring flowers. I used water color crayons to color it.
Thanks for looking
