Wacky Watercooler Blog Hop

Welcome to another Wacky Watercooler Blog Hop we are hopping in a circle so continue hopping until you return to your starting point, you will find plenty of inspiration along the way. Please leave a comment and let me know that you stopped by.

You may have hopped to my blog from my friend Marsha's blog, Marsha and I have been part of a couple different blog hops and I enjoy seeing her take on a project.

For the favorite past project part of our blog hop we are CASEing a hop members creation from last years Occasions/Sale-a-bration projects. I am CASEing Stefanie Pletscher I chose this card from last year.
Here is my CASE.

Stamps: Big Day (Sale-a-bration)
Paper: Whisper White, Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral CS & Birthday Bash Specialty DSP
Ink: VesaMark, Metallic Gold Encore & Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pads, Burmuda Bay and Calypso Coral Blendabilities
Misc: Scallop Tag Topper Punch, Chalk Talk Framelits & Diamensionals

I think one of my favorite stamps is From the Herd.

Stamp: From the Herd
Paper: Whisper White, Wild Wasabi & Marina Mist CS
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black Ink & Blendabilities
Misc: Lucky Stars Embossing Folder & On Film Framelit

I made two cards for our hop using the same stamp- A favorite Anything goes.

Stamps: Hey, Valentine
Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler & Night of Navy
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Bronze, Natural, Ivory, Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight Blendabilities, Cherry Cobbler & Night of Navy Marker
Misc:Big Shot, Word Bubble Framelits, Glue Dots & Dimensionals

With the word bubble, after I cut it out but before I took the Framelit off the paper I used a Project Life Pen to trace around the inside of the Framelit. I  stamped and colored parts of a second image, cut it out and used Dimensionals to pop parts of the image up. For his hat I used a Dimensional in the center and a Glue Dot on each side of it so that it curves.

But- Hey, Valentine isn't just for Valentines!

Stamps: Hey, Valentine & Label Love

Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy & Crushed Curry

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Bronze, Blush, Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight Blendabilities

Label Love- sneak peek

I had some left over paper that I had made for the card in this post.  It worked so well as the background for this card using a new stamp set called Label Love.

• The card base is a New In Color called Crisp Cantaloupe, I knotted some White Taffeta Ribbon around some paper that I  splattered with the ink  a couple of weeks ago.
• On a scrap of Whisper White CS I stamped the image from Label Love in Calypso Coral and punched it with the New Artisan Label Punch. I pooped it up with Dimensionals over the ribbon.

A quick and easy card!

Simply Sketched Sneak Peek II

First, Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers!

This image is what I bought Simply Sketched for! I used five New products on this card.

•  The card base is Pear Pizzazz a returning color to the Subtles Ink family. The front is Very Vanilla the was ran through the Big Shot in a new embossing folder called Modern Mosaic(there is a matching Punch).
• I stamped the image on Watercolor Paper and then cut it out with a Ovals Collection Framelit, I cut a piece of Old Olive with the next size larger. I colored the poppy with a New In Color Strawberry Slush and with Old Olive with shadows done in Soft Sky.
• I stamped the phrase from a New stamp set called Label Love, in Strawberry Slush, on a scrap of Very Vanilla and punched it out with a New punch called Artisan Label. I layered it onto a Decorative Label punch Old Olive CS I ran through the Big Shot in the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. I cut away the center of the Old Olive piece so that it fit around the phrase. The phrase is popped up on the piece with Dimensional and added to the card.

So I hope you like my sneak peek, I can't wait until June 1 when we can order from the complete catalog!
