Baking With Love

Deb here with a fun card using the Inside Out : No Good Advice stamp set from the March Release. It includes 5 snarky sentiment duos that just crack me up !! I chose too use the baking combo because it brought back lots of sweet memories of being in the kitchen with my mom as a child .. We made hundreds of dozens of chocolate chip cookies over the years she always called them "Toll House" . And if you knew my mom, you know that she never ever met a recipe that she actually followed word for word . She always added something extra or changed it just a little - she called it "doctoring it up".. I think she would have absolutely loved this card that I made .. 

And the fun part of this card is that I cut out an extra oven door and adhered it to the oven so it opens .. AND that is where I put the snarky "inside" saying !! Isn't that the cutest ?!?!?

• I stamped the "outside" saying with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a piece of patterned paper with a cute kitchen scene.
• I cut the oven door out of another piece of paper leaving some excess below the door.
• The stamped panel was adhered to a kraft card base.
• The "inside" sentiment was stamped with Teal Zeal Memento ink on a scrap piece of the same patterned paper with the oven on it  and then trimmed.
• I adhered that sentiment on the oven door on my cad base
• I folded the bottom  edge of the oven door paper and adhered it to the front of my card right over the original oven door .
• I placed a piece of removable double-sided tape at the top pf the oven door so it could be opened and closed .
• Red rhinestones were placed along the pattern at the top of the card .

Thanks for stopping by to see my card !! It honors my mom who I lost 30 years ago . I might just make some Toll House cookies today . Have a great day !!

Illuminated Manuscript

 I adore this new Old World Script background stamp!  I stamped it on parchment-look paper and added some gold gel pen flourishes.  Decorated with a public domain panel from an illuminated manuscript that I printed on my computer and a couple of strips of velvet ribbon held in place with gold brads.  Get this and all the new March stamps at TechniqueJunkies.com and use my code TJ10FAITH for 10% off your order!

Dear Wine

 Happy Wednesday!!! Today I am sharing this fabulous and silly sentiment from the new March set, Inside Out: No Good Advice, set of 10. On the inside it reads, “I’ve seen the video. We need to talk.” Super fun set! I used Catherine Pooler inks and made a monochromatic card. I used a spiral notebook punch to make it look like the message was taken out of a notebook. A dark purple mat, some ribbon and rhinestones and we can call it done!

Something Funny !

Thought I would showcase a couple of funny ones today

This first one using one of the saying from the new 

inside out set 

and an older stamp with this lady

On the inside...

Next I used the new shopping on line stamp

Kept it simple with some designer paper for the background

It's nice to make some quick ones once in awhile

and when you have sayings it is so easy.

Glittering Disco Ball

 Our Disco Ball stamp is meant to offer encouragement to someone who might need to see themselves in a different light (excuse the pun). Today I colored the discou ball with different colors of glitter pens and mounted it on top of purple glitter paper and gems. You may find the stamp here:

Flowing Creativitiy

 The silhouette on the Flower and Wing Silhouette stamp is so beautiful. To me, it evokes a sense of flowing creativity, which made it perfect for the Endlessly Create Yourself stamp. The background was created by using the Direct-to-Paper swiping technique with three Catherine Pooler Iks. I added some glitter markers to some of th ebutterflies and flowers to add shimmer, too. The stamps are here:
