Delicate Doilies


I had an awesome workshop this weekend!  The ladies were so much fun and made some really beautiful cards.  This is one of the cards that I demo'd.  I love Delicate Doilies.  It's super versatile and can serve any number of purposes depending on the color pallet that you use.

This time I went ultra-girly with Wisteria Wonder, Melon Mambo, Pink Pirouette, and Pretty in Pink.  The Basic Grey base gave it some nice punch, and the white embossed image added that extra little bit of detail.


On a totally unrelated note, this gal was on my porch Friday morning!  The distance between her and the front door is less than six feet.  She was happily munching away on the bag of bird seed that was sitting there.  We watched her for about 10 minutes before my dog finally ran outside and barked at her from behind the fence, scaring her, and her friend that was hanging about in the yard, bouncing off across the street into the woods.  I was disappointed that she ran off, but she was back a few minutes later finishing her snack.

Hello Doily


Things I love this week?  Delicate Doilies and the colour scheme from Domestic Goddess.  I couldn't sleep last night so I was thinking about cards that I would make today.  I almost got out of bed at 4:30 to make this card.  If there is one set that I think will be used the most out of my sets for backgrounds, this it is.  I made a set with in an earlier post that I loved as well, but these colours are funky and give it a totally different vibe.  If you don't have this set, do yourself a favour and buy it.

Stamps:  Delicate Doilies, Happy Greetings
Ink:  Calypso Coral, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight, Basic Grey
Paper:  Basic Grey, Whisper White, Calypso Coral, Pool Party


My favourite layout shines once again!






I liked the first card that I made so much that I made an altered journal just like it!

Sun + Stamping = Yay


Summer holidays have officially started so I am now off work for 63 days (I know, life is really tough).  This morning I was sitting in the sun, sipping my Cafe Verona, when the dog went crazy.  The Purolator van had pulled into the driveway.  YAY!!!  I know what that means!  I rushed to the door and happily accepted my package.  I'm all about making my own paper, and this set couldn't be better suited to this technique.

Stamps:  Delicate Doilies
Ink:  Wisteria Wonder, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie
Paper:  Wisteria Wonder, Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White
Extras:  Scallop edge punch, clear embossing powder, Dazzling Diamonds
