I purchased Stampin' Up!'s Thoughts & Prayers stamp set several months ago and just haven't used it as much as I should have. I did post a card with it a few weeks ago and from there was asked to join a card swap, with some other demonstrators, using this set. The challenge was on. This is my card. I c.a.s.e.d* portions of it (something you all should do when you're kind of stuck for creative ideas) to get my juices flowing. Do you see any similarities to the female birthday card we did at the library yesterday? I love the tree in the stamp set but I also love the flow of this graceful branch and opted to use it.
Ingredients:
STAMP SET: Thoughts & Prayers, Elegant Greetings
CARDSTOCK: Confetti White, Mellow Moss, Rose Red, So Saffron
INK: Rose Red; Markers: Mellow Moss, So Saffron
ACCESSORIES: Big Shot Die Cut machine, Stampin' Up! Backgrounds I Texturz Plates, SU! exclusive Top Note Bigz die, Matchbox Die, Boho Blossoms Punch, Flower Fusion (Rose Red), gold brads, paper piercing tool from Crafters' Toolkit, Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots.
*c.a.s.e. = copy and share everything or copy and steal everything but that's not quite so nice sounding. I like to just call it casing. :)
If you have any questions about how to put this card together or how to purchase any of the 'ingredients', just leave a comment below this entry and I'll get back to you right away. You can also go directly to my Stampin' Up! website (click on SHOP NOW in the upper right hand corner of this page) and place your order there if you know what you'd like.
Thanks for stopping in. Take care,




















I like it! I like how it was used for the Thoughts and Prayers Card, and the Feminine Card yesterday! Lovely...Michelle
