Ribbon of Courage

Show a little faith when things are hard.  I used WHISPER WHITE UNINKED CRAFT STAMPIN’ PAD & REFILL on VELLUM 8-1/2" X 11" CARD STOCK and then cut the RIBBON OF COURAGE CLEAR-MOUNT BUNDLE with the thinlit.  It is mounted on COLOR THEORY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER STACK.  Just think about how many lives you can support with this incredible stamp set!  www.kris.stampinup.net

Remarkable You

The REMARKABLE YOU CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET is so fun and flexible.  I used the leaves to stamp CRUMB CAKE CLASSIC STAMPIN' PAD on CRUMB CAKE 8-1/2" X 11" CARD STOCK for a soft texture.  Then I embossed it with COPPER STAMPIN' EMBOSS POWDER.  Using the aqua painter I inked up the lotus and stem.  The sentiment is from HERE FOR YOU CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET.  Get your items for this card at www.kris.stampinup.net

Colorful Seasons

Just Breathe...  It has been a summer that I have had to remind myself to do this often.  I used the   COLORFUL SEASONS PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET and SEASONAL LAYERS THINLITS DIES.  This is one set that you must have all season long.  It is a top seller from the 2017-18 Stampin' Up! catalog.  I created the look of grass using the DAISY DELIGHT PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET.  It gives a sense of movement to the card.  To create the background grab a baby wipe and fold it in fourths.  With your re inkers add a few drops of CRUMB CAKE CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILL, MARINA MIST CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILL, and BERMUDA BAY CLASSIC STAMPIN' INK REFILL, swipe it across some watercolor paper and you have your beach scene.  Go to www.kris.stampinup.net

Oh So Eclectic

The first thing I saw when I took the OH SO ECLECTIC CLEAR-MOUNT BUNDLE out of the box was poppies.  I had to make a card with red and black and red poppies.  I love that the stamp set gives  a forgiving watercolor look.  I did a very light watercolor wash, with Soft Sky and the Aqua pen, in the background to add a little dimension.

Foxy Friends

This card is made with the FOXY FRIENDS PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET and FOX BUILDER PUNCH! How many friends can you make with this clever little set?  I love the sentiment with this card because it is a play on words and adds a little humor to a tough situation.  You can find it in the HERE FOR YOU CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET.  I used the water color paper and aqua painter to create the background and added the flower from FLOURISHING PHRASES CLEAR-MOUNT STAMP SET.
