Thank you lavender

Happy Friday! Summer vacation is just a few short days away... yippee!!  The boys have several jobs lined up this summer for their "car fund". They also plan to stain our fence for us that needs a fresh coat of stain, of course not without payment they stated. Kids...  It will be worth the work they do. Well you certainly didn't come to hear about my summer plans today. How about a creation from Power Poppy?

This did not turn out quite like I had it pictured in my head, yet it didn't turn out bad either. This beautiful Lavender is a new release and has several awesome stamps in the set. I have the Lavender stamped on white card stock and colored with Copic markers. I added Spellbinders die A2 Curved Borders One to the bottom portion with the sentiment in the middle and an added jewel. Very easy peasy and fresh feeling dont you think? Voila!

We have a big match this weekend so I need to get things ready. Going to be in the 90's. Yes summer weather is here. Have a wonderful weekend.

Get on the Birthday boat

Another birthday card I know. I am needing so many as of late and trying to get my stash built back up. This is actually one I created with a Dimension tutorial if you are interested. This is from ODBD called Ship. The sails are popped up on three levels. An added textured panel and brads to the side and tab. Voila!

Half way to December

This is a two fold challenge for the June Dirty Dozen Christmas challenge of Anything Goes and this weeks Featured Stamper 382 challenge. Hopefully you can play in BOTH challenges!


I choose this creation White Christmas creation to case. I kept the theme, white card stock, snowflakes and jewels. Changed the die cut to Whiff Of Joy's Christmas Baubles Die-light, added my sentiment on a tag and used my textured panel all over the base layer. Voila! 

We are in Mid year ladies... That means December and all those Christmas cards are coming faster and faster. This month is all about anything goes. Create to your hearts content! 
Only 7 more days of school left for us so I am trying to get our summer fun schedule all figured out before school is officially out. yea!!!  Another year down as they say.  :-)  Hope you have some time to create today. Happy Stamping!

Welcome to Power Poppy's June new release. Did you enjoy the sneak peeks the last few days? All the stamp sets are available NOW over at the Power Poppy Store. I have a creation to share with you using the new Sassy Succulents.  :-) Here is the photo that I used to draw my colors from for this guys.


This is one of my mom's favorites to plant in her rock gardens or her area's that she just doesn't know what to put in there. I used to giggle when she would say she was going to replant her hens n chicks and go out back. ha ha!

I have this image stamped on white card stock and then again so that I could pop up the image. They are colored with Copic markers and simply cut around and popped up. Added my sentiment and a few jewels. Very easy peasy today!
