Retirement Party

Hi stampers!  Well, we've had three weeks of grandparent fun but the last set went home yesterday so here's to getting back to normal and being lonely!  Maybe I can get some more stamping done though!  If the goofy bad weather stays away.  I just can't wrap my head around this flooding and it keeps raining and storming.  And I can't handle much more tornado anxiety!

Anyway I did get a good bit of stamping done a few weekends ago.  I did a thing where I tried to use up a lot of retiring items.  I need to get better at that! Anyway, I kind of had my own little retirement party in my stamp room, lol!


Let me first say, I was excited to see the masks in the new catalog!  I love those things and don't use them enough!  For this one, I did kind of a gradient or ombre thing with greens since we have to say goodby to Lemon Lime Twist (how am I to go on without it?) and Tranquil Tide.  The middle green is Call Me Clover and I just love how well it pairs with the two other greens!  I used our Stampin' Sponges and just made sure to blend where they met really well.  Such a fun look!  I also taped my mask down with washi tape.

I'm also sad to see the Celebrate You and Bunch of Banners Thinlits going as well as the stamp set!  They are all so great!

Are you using up your retiring items and putting them to good use?  Are you so sad to see Lemon Lime Twist go????

If I don't float down the river tomorrow (or blow away), I'll be back with another ;-)  And don't worry, we should be safe, from the water at least.  But please pray for the people in Tulsa who are not!

Stampin with Framelits

Hi stampers!  Here we are at the start of another week and I'm behind as usual :-)  But getting a post up late is better than never I suppose!  I made this pillow box up a while back and never got around to sharing it.  I LOVE our little Kraft Pillow Boxes in the Annual Catalog, I mean you can't go wrong with kraft and polka dots!  All you have to do is fold them up and embellish them and you have the prefect gift card, treat, or trinket holder!

I did something a little odd here and I stamped with a framleit.  Say what?  Yup.  It wasn't perfect but I think it totally worked!  It's subtle but I like it that way.  I used one of our Uninked Spectrum Pads, which if you haven't tried out, are so cool!  You can make them in any spectrum you want with your ink refills!


My colors were Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, Lemon Lime Twist, Coastal Cabana, and Gorgeous Grape.  It's SUCH a fun and bright spectrum!  After I inked it up and stamped it, I cut it out by hand.  I layered it on some Glimmer Paper and added a few more accents and it was prefect!


Have you tried the pillow boxes yet?  And will you try stamping with dies?

Happy stamping!

Cue The Confetti

Hi stampers!  I'm back!  Jon was gone all this week and Ian kept me pretty busy so I didn't get around to blogging...again.  He did fall asleep for a bit yesterday so I managed to crank out one card while he snoozed on the couch!

Today, I'm going to show you the card that I gave a sneak peek of over the weekend on my IG.  I'm so happy the Picture Perfect Birthday Stamp Set is in the new catalog!  It's such a cute set!  I will say I've had a bit of trouble using it without the rest of the retired suite (because it was just SO GOOD) but this set stands on it's own for sure!  This card could be a birthday card or used for any occasion that requires confetti!


I also sort of love these colors together!  I'm not sure of the last time I used Pacific Point but they color revamp has given it new life for me!  I paired it with Basic Black, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, and Gorgeous Grape and it was perfect!  I added some of the new Glitter Enamel Dots and that SUPER fun Gorgeous Grape Striped Ribbon.

I just love all the little elements and accents in this set and they all worked so perfectly that I didn't even need a main image!
