May 26, 2014 | Birthday, Congratulations, Sympathy, Thank You |
Yesterday I was in the mood to create a lot of cards quickly. All of us can relate to the need to have cards on hand, right? Obviously, I needed a simple design that could be reproduced for many occassions. Choosing the Summer Silhouettes Stamp Set, was a great starting point because I knew that I wanted lots of white space. The basic design is the same on each card with just a variation of cardstock, embellishemnets and sentiments. I will share 4 cards today and 4 tomorrow.




One of the big plusses about this design is that you can use what sentiments you have on hand. Sadly, many of the ones that I used are retiring. You know what that means – if you love them, then get them before they are gone!
The facts:
1. The card base is 4-1/4" x 11" scored at 5-1/2"
2. Cardstock layer is 3-3/4" x 5"
3. Image layer 3-5/8" x 5-3/8"
4. Use the Essentials Paper Piercing Pack to add piercing underneath the sentiment.
5. Stamp sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink
6. Embellish as desired.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today! Be sure to check back tomorrow to see the other cards.

If you have your catalog, then you know how overwhelming it can be to try and develop your wish list. That's why product shares are so helpful. You get a nice sample of a variety of paper , ribbons or embellishments, depending on what you select, and it costs you a fraction of what it would cost to buy it all!
Here's how it works:
- sign up for a spot in one (or more) of the product shares listed below.
- I will bill you after your share is filled but before the order is placed. You may pay by paypal, check, money order or credit card.
- Starting on June 2, I'll begin placing orders for the closed (filled)/paid shares.
- Once I receive the product, I'll divide it up and ship it straight to you. Of course, for those of you living near me, there will be no shipping charge.
Below are the descriptions of my Product Share Offerings.

The I want it all option is offered at a 30% discount so it is a wonderful bargain!

Today I am saying goodbye to Modern Medley dsp which is on the Retired List & available While Supplies last for $7.67. It's like the "little black dress " paper! Basic and very useful! In addition, I am saying goodbye to Simple Stems from the Celebrate the Everyday Mini Catalog ending June 1, 2014.

The image was inked in Daffodil Delight & stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock. The stem was inked in Old Olive Ink. After cutting the image out with an Oval Collection Framelit, I backed the right edge with a Basic Black Oval cut with the same oval framelit.
The background paper from the Mixed Medley paper pack is dressed up with a square of Daffodil Delight Cardstock that was embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder available for $5.96 While Supplies Last. A long strip of Old Olive Cardstock is embossed with the Delicate Dots Embossing Folder.

A Rectangular Strip of Basic Black Cardstock is adorned with a Daffodil Delight flower from the Petite Petals stamp set. It was punched out with the Petite Petals Punch. A sweet Pearl decorates the flower.
Before I leave you today, I do want to announce that I will be doing product shares and I will be giving you a discount on the product. Please check back as I will be posting information on my blog.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Hugs,
Ginger
