New "In Colors" Butterflies

Hi Everyone!
Another beauty of a day - but a little cooler than the past few!
Here is a card I made - cased from "As The Ink Dries" .... she had made one similar to this a few days ago.

This card will be a great way to showcase the new In Colors at my upcoming June Workshops....

Thanks for peeking!
Have an awesome day!
HUGS!

Old and New ...

Hey Stampers!
How is your day going? This is a busy one for me!!! Three different meetings ... thankfully not all at one time! LOL!
A Dear Friend dropped in to make cards yesterday afternoon - I have 2 to show you that I made using some really old DSP, some current CS, and a new stamp set  (available June 1). I guess you could say that I LOVE this new set - Betsy's Blossoms .... and this big blossom! The sentiment is from the set Tea Shoppe ....

Please excuse the pictures ... guess they are "over-exposed" ...

These are 3 smaller blossoms from the same set... it's really hard to tell in the picture but I stamped the blossom three times without re-inking in between stamping ... so there are varying degrees of color here!

Thanks for peeking in here today!
Blessings on yah!
HUGS!

Lattice and Doilies

Good Morning Everyone!
Feels like a muggy one today!
Just a quick post before I run into the day! :)
This card was one that we made at our Card Club last weekend.... I love this Concord Crush CS -  but it is one of the In Colors that will be retiring at the end of the month. :(
I used the Lattice Die and the Delicate Doilies stamp set to complete the card ... we also made a DSP envelope to complement the card ... which I didn't take a picture of.

Thanks for stopping by today!
Keep smiling and "may the sun shine down on you!"
HUGS!

A Cup Of Thanks

GOOD MORNING!
Isn't this a spectacular day?? We have had a great long weekend weather-wise! So Much to be thankful for - thus the card today - "A Cup Of Thanks" using the Tea Shoppe stamp set. This set is a carry-over from the last mini and will be in the new catalogue! YEA!!!! The DSP is brand new - available June 1st - Floral District .... sooooo pretty.
For this card I used Daffodil Delight CS and Rich Razzleberry Ink.

Thanks for peeking!!!!
Have a wonderful day!

Betsy's Layered Blossom

Hi Stampers!
I worked on this card off-and-on yesterday ... many interruptions it seemed - that's a good thing though! LOL!
However, last evening I finally finished it and decided to take a picture of it in our sunroom. Before I show you the card I have to show you a pic of the beautiful scene that presented itself to me! We see some of the most amazing sunsets from our sunroom!!! One more thing to add to my gratitude list!

Here is the card I made using the set Betsy's Blossoms which will be available June 1 and onward...I used a piece of DSP from the Comfort Cafe; the primary colors are Cajun Craze and Midnight Muse (a new In Color). I used the scallop edgelit on the DSp; and added some Crochet trim.

As you can see ... I stamped the flower 3 times and cut it out and layered it! Also did the birds wings in the second color.

And finally - here is a view of the inside - very simple ... with a thin piece of DSP ...

Thanks for peeking in today ... my stamp club meets here this afternoon! Such fun!
HUGS to all!
