Calypso Meets SOTM!

Happy Saturday, peeps! Today I am sharing another fun project I created with our current SOTM, Celebrate with Cake. Here is the fun card! 

 I used some Calypso papers, stamped right onto the paper, fussy cut, and attached with foam tape. I finished it off with some pink gems, Calypso sequins, and Glacier twine. 

Get your "Celebrate with Cake" stamp for just $5 when you place an order of $50 with me!

Here is a look at the Calypso Workshop Your Way kit!

Happy May! With today being the first of May, we have a brand new....

Chances are that you are coming from Kristine's Merry Heart Creations.

 Kristine always has such creative ideas to share with us! I am in awe of what she creates. Don't worry if you haven't followed along from the beginning of the hop, a complete list is at the bottom of this post. 

Today we have lots to share! First let me introduce you to the Celebrate with Cake May SOTM....

Here is the card I created for a birthday....

I used watercolors and the stamp with confetti to create a fun background for the pink water colored cake. I stamped the sentiment and then spattered water color all over it, also. I was going for a "confetti" kind of look. I used papers for the new Happy Times NSD May special.

This paper pack can be yours for FREE if you have a qualifying $60 purchase during May. If you choose, you can buy this pack for $14.95. The stamp available for $17.95. 

Now, hop on over to Brenda's Rose Bloom Legacies. You are sure to be inspired by her fantastic artwork!

Rose Blossom Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Rose Blossom Stamp of the Month Blog Hop! 

You have just come from the ever so talented, Kristine's blog, to see this 

 "Framed" set and....it works with your NEW Artistry cartridge!!! Just look at this, you have every occasion covered!  

I chose to create a "cheer you up" bag using the Artiste cartridge and the brand new Zoe line of papers. 

I used the soft Glacier and Sorbet inks to stamp the "Thinking of you" tag.

I cut the flowers and Mason jar with the brand new Artistry cartridge. These little Zoe complements fit perfectly over the cut flowers and some bitty sparkles were the perfect finishing touch. To close the bag, I added some glacier twine.

 I used this delightful stamp set to create this masculine card. 

 I thought this set just complimented the Jackson papers perfectly, along with a Kraft base. I used Cocoa ink.

I was inspired by this sketch at Retro Sketches. As you can see, I was inspired but did not hold true to the sketch. I altered to fit the needs of my stamp.
