Don't you just love the double embossing technique that I used on Tuesday's post? Well I used the same technique to create the background on today's card and added another technique to the Fancy Flower image similar to the technique I used on yesterdays post. I used reinkers and Crystal Effects.

I love how it turned out and hope you do too. Another view:

Below are more cards using Stampin' Up!'s Sew Suite stamps set from the 2011 Occasions Mini catalog. I also used Sincere Salutations and Puns from the Past from Stampin' Up!'s 2010-2011 Idea Book & Catalog. I did a bunch of cards using the oh sew Suite collection last month. On the first card I added an "embossed button" tied with Linen Thread.

Both cards used Stampin' Up!'s Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper for the background. Wouldn't your quilting friends love receiving these cards?

Don't forget that this is the last month you can order out of the 2011 Occasions Mini, it expires April 30, 2011.
Have fun stamping and come back tomorrow. Leave a comment on what you would like to see on my blog!

The recycled part of today's card post is an extra "Remember When" (Word Play stamp set #120651) piece left over from my Laedership 2011 general swap card. I took a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and stamped lots of images from Puns From the Past (#111676 Wood only) for the background of this play on words card:

Again I used the Big Shot and the Square Lattice Textured Embossing Folder to embed the layers. My original swap card is shown below:
