Golf Birthday

I'm so sad that continue this lovely cloud embossing folder, but for those of you who snagged the chance to buy it, you were smart!  Look at the fun background that the clouds make for this golf card.  The hills were just ripped and the trees and pin were made with the Pennant Parade set.  I realized later that I should have used a non-SU texture plate for grass on the green, but oh well.  You have to quit changing the card at some point and just finish it off.  I hope my BIL liked it. 

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station once again.  It's been fun sharing with you!

Blessings,
Julie

Ouch! Get Well Soon....

Delightful Dozen, Raspberry Ripple, Blushing Bride
Yes, these bandaid cards are all over, but I thought it was completely appropriate for my friend's 17 year old daughter who had to have her hip rebuilt.  Yes, ouch!  I'm hoping that she'll have no problem putting on her dancing shoes once again after she's healed up from the surgery.  I also had fun using my new framelits for this card.  And added benefit for needing to make cards, right?  Love these new shapes!  The Get Well layers are made with the Chalk Talk set and the layers behind the bandaid are made with the Deco Labels Colletion.  Aren't they fun?! 

Thanks for once again stopping by the Stamping Station!

Blessings,

Six-Sided Sampler Fun!

Six-Sided Sampler, Crisp Cantaloupe, Strawberry Slush, Pear Pizzazz, Wild Wasabi
Yes, I can't claim this idea for my own either, but I like it!  I love the quilted look that the hexagons give.  Sure is great that you can buy the Six Sided Sampler stamp set and the Hexagon Punch as a bundle.  Saved me some bucks!  The button was made with the new moldable clay, some Wild Wasabi reinker, and the button form.  How fun is that?!  Yes, it is fun to play with the new toys.  A lot of fun.  :-) 

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station.

Blessings,

Eggplant Sympathy

Secret Garden, Loving Thoughts, Elegant Eggplant, Pistachio Pudding
Snagged this idea of of Pinterest, too!  The Secret Garden flowers were stamped with white StazOn and cut out with the Big Shot and matching Secret Garden Framelits.  The back sides of the vellum flowers were sponged with Elegant Eggplant.  After cutting out the oval with my framelits, I used the Mosaic embossing folder on the Elegant Eggplant cardstock.  The leaves were cut out of Pistachio Pudding (a fabulous new In Color!) and attached with mini glue dots.  I love how this one came out.  This was sent to a friend who lost her dad unexpectedly.  So sad! 

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station!

Uhhhh... Here's Father's Day ... a Bit Late!

Yes I'm a bit behind schedule here on the blog.  Here are the Father's Day cards that I made for my Dad and my Father-In-Law.  They both use the By the Tide stamp set.  I'm overjoyed that this set made it from the Spring Catalog into the new Idea Book!  It's a wonderfully versatile set and well worth purchasing.  Just think of the fun scrapbooking pages and masculine cards you can make with it. 

By The Tide, Island Indigo, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake, Real Red
 This first card is based on a card that I found on Pinterest.  I've changed up the colors so that it has a bit more pop to it.  The lobster was hand cut so that I could pop it up on top of the layers.  The linen thread is a fun addition to finishing off the card.
This card was another one based off of a Pinterest card.  The fish and seahorse were colored in with markers and the background of the sea was sponged with a few different colors.  Again, the Linen Thread comes in handy for adding that little bit of interest to finish off the card. 

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station once again.  I hope you're enjoying your summer.  We sure are!

Blessings,
Julie
