Sail Away on the Open Sea!
I am beginning to love monochromatic cards! Here is one I made using Sahara Sand and Early Expresso. Again I used The Open Sea stamp set, Nautical Expedition Designer Series Paper, and Early Expresso Baker's Twine.
This is one of the cards I designed last month when I receive my demonstrator preorder. One of the perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is that you are able to preorder new mini catalog products the month before everyone else!! Would like to receive this perk and a discount?

This was the first card I made using Stampin' Up!'s new Blossom Triple Layer Punch (found on page 6 of 2011 Summer mini Catalog, check out the scrapbook page at the top). I am having fun with this punch and working on projects for my downline play date on May 21. I also used my Square Lattice Textured Embossing Folder and Framed Tulip Textured Embossing Folder on this card — can you tell I double embossed the Basic Gray layer and everything that was adhered to that layer? I used shimmer paint to highlight the Framed Tulip border.

Another angle hopig to highlight the Shimmer Paint:

Hello Blossoms and Best Ever Dad!
Well, I know this is a strange combination of stamp sets, however, it works for this card which is totally spring! I used the thinking of you stamp from Best Dad Ever, with the Hello Blossoms stamp to create this fun card. Beyond the Garden was the inspiration piece for the palette I used for this card.
Hope you all had a Happy Mother's Day!

My, Oh My – My Quilting Friends are Going to Love These Cards!
Last week I finally got to use my Button, Button and Sew Suite stamp sets. I had so much fun creating these cards and hope you like them as much as I do. Since I didn't get to post a lot last week I will make up for it this week. Today I will post two cards both of which use the Sale-a-bration stamp set So Happy for you for the Greeting. I wanted to get them posted for you before Sale-a-bration ends on Thursday, March 31.
The first card uses Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper (#121781) from the 2011 Occasions Mini catalog for the background layered on Tangerine Tango. I stamped the button "card" on Crumb Cake and the tape measure on So Saffron cardstock. Cut both out and layer on the Designer Series paper. Using the Sweet Buttons Embosslit (#121813, 2011 Occasions Mini) die cut "buttons" in several coordinating colors and glue on button card. Adhere tape measure (ruler) to card as well. Stamp "birthday wishes" from the So Happy for You stamp set on Crumb Cake and punch out with the Modern Label punch. Punch a scrap piece of Melon Mambo with the Modern Label Punch and cut in half. Attach the halves at each end of the stamped image (trim off the very center of each half before attaching to saying). Attach saying near bottom of card. Base is Very Vanilla.
Second card is super quick and easy! Stamp the dress form 3 times on a 3" x 3 1/4" of Whisper White Cardstock in Basic Black. Stamp it again on a piece of Designer Series Paper and cut out the dress form shape only and adhere to the center dress form as on my card. Stamp your greeting near the topin Basic Black ink. Mount the Whisper White piece on Basic Black cardstock (3 1/4" x 3 1/2") and set aside. Stamp the tape measure (ruler) on your Old Olive Card base with Old Olive ink. Attach stamped piece to center of card and you are done!
Check back tomorrow for more ideas using these sets.
