Hi everyone! Anybody else here feel like they’ve been on a roller coaster ride the last few weeks? Let me off I say! lol
Playing around with some of the new release from Poppystamps! Here I’ve used the Ring Collage die cut in kraft and layered over a watercolored panel.
I die cut the largest die from the new Eyelet Stitches dies on the top and bottom of the panel. On the Memory Box Pool A2 card base I die cut the X border from the new Delicate Stitches dies.
I edged the kraft panel with Gathered Twigs Distress ink and the ink blending tool and the pool card base with Tumbled Glass Distress ink and the ink blending tool.
The sentiment is from the new poppystamps Grateful Heart stamp set, inked with Versamark and embossed with Gold embossing powder.
I die cut the Heart String from Strathmore Mixed Media 140# stock after inking it with Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry Distress inks and the ink blending tool and spattering with Gold spray ink.
You’ll find most of the supplies I used on my card at Starlitstudio.net.
Thank you all for visiting my blog today! Happy Stamping New Year to us! May we get lots of cards made! hehe

Sharing a card today from the NEW release at Simon Says Stamp. So many pretty dies and stamps! Love is in the air, along with the snow on my blog and in Iowa. hoho
My photos don’t do this card justice. Black and gold can be so dramatic and I assure you they are on this card! (no sunshine for pictures today)
I used the Memory Box Master Oval Frame die to set this card up, then tied on some thin gold thread.
Two white die cuts glued on behind the gold die cut…
You can see this die and the rest of the release at SSS, HERE. Have fun looking and shopping!
Thanks for stopping by!

P.S. Here’s a phone picture I just took this a.m. Sun is bright today!
I had great fun using stamps and dies to make Valentines last week! Our family party was yesterday so now I can show what I made. I don’t have a picture of one of them and two others didn’t get finished! I always run out of time!
This typewriter (CG280 My Type) card is Hero Arts stamps except for the row of hearts…it’s from Printworks. I used the Misti to stamp so I could get this super, wonderful black inking! love it!
This one is the size of an ATC and uses Reverse Confetti’s world die and an Avery Elle sentiment. The background embossing folder is from Cuttlebug. The woodgrain stamp is from All Night Media.
I made a few of these for the younger grandsons…Avery Elle stamp and die sets and a Hero Arts sentiment stamp. Silver Wink of Stella Brush Marker on the wings and more.
Here’s the Memory Box Rectangle Frames die with a partial cut heart die, also from Memory Box. The sentiment stamps and Little Bits Fishing pole and Fish are from Taylored Expressions. The background is the All Night Media woodgrain stamp again.
I was inpsired by Sarah G for this card. I used the Winnie and Walter Tree Ring stamp, a Memory Box heart die, WPlus9 you die and the Hero Arts sentiment again. Oh the arrow stamp is from My Favorite Things.
I made envelopes for all the Valentines using the old penmanship lined paper we had in grade school. Fun!
Whew, I could’ve made Valentines for a couple more weeks… it’s like Christmas cards once I get started I don’t want to quit! lol
Now, it’s time to clean up! lol All 17 of the grandkids loved the Valentine exchange party we had yesterday afternoon and hey, the adults had a great time too!
Thanks for stopping by and letting me share with you. Happy stamping!
