LNS Challenge 131 All White Daisies

Hello, Friends!

Since I cheated a little on my "all white" card for Monday by using Basic Gray and Basic Black, I decided to make another one. This one is definitely all white. The sketch comes from Mary Jo's Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge. The "all white" was hard for me. I wanted to put a bright yellow or pink button on the flower but I resisted. It's good to take on an uncomfortable challenge sometimes! 

Happy Stamping!

I used the following Stampin' Up products to make this card:

Whisper White Card Stock

Square Lattice and Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folders

Daisies #2 Flower Bigz Die

Big Shot

Neutrals Buttons

White Bakers Twine

VC Rocks ABC Blog Hop with Daisies

Hello and welcome to the July VC Rocks Blog Hop!

On this hop, you'll be seeing projects that are Anything But a Card!

You can begin the tour by going to www.vcrocks.blogspot.com or just go to www.stampingfunwithkim.blogspot.com to see the previous blog in the hop.

For this tour, I wanted to break out my Stampin' Up Big Shot Daisies #2 Flower Bigz Die. I had seen a lot of great projects made with it so I wanted to make some of my own.

I made my first flower as a plant stake to stick in one of my plants in my living room. Stampin' Up's Cherry Cobbler Card Stock matches one of the colors in my couch. I love how it turned out!

After making one flower, I had to make another one! This time I used Real Red and Cherry Cobbler to match some of the accents in my kitchen. I like the variation in color and depth that it added. This is a magnet on my refrigerator.

Finally, I thought my amazing new Stampin' Up catalog deserved an accessory of it's own. So, I created one more flower as a bookmark for my new catalog. I used the Real Red and Cherry Cobbler combination again which matched the cover of the catalog nicely.

I hope you've enjoyed my stop on the blog hop. Although there's no stamping, Stampin' Up provides products that can be used for a wide variety of projects- not just cards!

Happy Creating!

SFF Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paper

It's Sketch Frenzy Friday time again!

It isn't often that I make a card that has absolutely no stamping on it at all. I had thought about making my own designer paper by stamping images on it and then using a print at the bottom. However, I love the Elegant Soiree paper and thought this corner with the flower would be perfect for today's card. I was going to trim it down to make it a regular sized 5 1/2" x 4" card but to do so would have meant that I would have had to cut off part of the design. So instead, I switched it to a 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" card. It was super fast, super simple, and I still think it's pretty.

Happy Stamping!

I used the following Stampin' Up products to make this card:
 

Very Vanilla and Baja Breeze Cardstock

Elegant Soiree Designer Series Paper

5/8" Very Vanilla Grosgrain Ribbon

That's it!
