Simply Sunday … Sending Loving Thoughts

Posted in Quick -n- Easy, Sympathy, Techniques by

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

I hope this post finds you enjoying a beautiful weekend. After many days of rain, it was so nice to see the sun again.

Today I have a card for you where I have combined two simple techniques to create one beautiful card. I began with masking off a section of my card and sponging Mossy Meadow and Lost Lagoon into that area.

Before peeling up the mask, I added the Bokeh technique … to create the background. Then I peeled off the mask and stamped the Serene Silhouettes over it using the Memento Ink Pad.

To complete my card I added a simple greeting from the Love & Sympathy stamp set.

The techniques of masking (with sponging) and Bokeh are simple to do and together they create a stunning focal point for your card.

Spring is Coming ….

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I’m going to share a card with you that will warm you like spring! The warm color combination of Rose Red and Daffodil Delight bring this card to life. The magical background was created using a technique call “Bokeh” ….

This is one of the cards I created for a Make & Take project at my March Star’s by Design Team meeting … My technique club participants will be thrilled to know that they will be learning this technique in our April meetings! They however will have two totally different designs, along with a technique sheet!

I will share the details of the technique with you in April, after my technique clubs are held. It’s really not that far away.

I used the “Petal Potpourri” stamps set with the coordinating “Flower Medallion Punch”. You can bundle these two items and save 15% … love that!  Also featured on the card is the “And Many More” stamp set … a must have in your collection. We just can’t have enough greeting sets, can we?

I hope you enjoyed this touch of spring, and have a wonderful day.

Thanks for stopping by ~
