So Sorry for the Letters at the Bottom!

You won't believe how much spam comments my blog is getting! I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to add the "type in the letters you see" box at the bottom of the comment page.  I really didn't want to have to do that.  I hope you won't mind the inconvenience. 

Bundle of Love, Certainly Celery, So Saffron, Wisteria Wonder)

In the meantime, here's a card that I made with my Bundle of Love set.  A customer and friend of mine is having a baby and I wanted to celebrate with her.  This is the card that I sent to her.  The bottom of the So Saffron DP was stamped with VersaMark and the onesie stamp.  The pennant punch helps to decorate the upper left corner.  The congratulations stamps was cut out with my Apothecary Accents Framelit.  Very fun and pretty easy to do.  Oh, and don't forget the popped up greeting in a different color.  Totally adds to the dimension of the card and unfortunately doesn't show much on the photo.  Oh, and sorry about the colors.  They didn't come out very true on this photo.

I hope you have a wonderful day.  I'm going to be some things together for a fundraiser for a boy who is dealing with leukemia for the 3rd time.  His insurance refused to cover the bone marrow transplant since this was the 3rd try, so we're doing all we can.  Here's a link to his website so that you can read about him and donate if you feel led to.  Colton's Army.  As Eric on Eric's Little Heroes said, sometimes it really does take an army to raise a child!

Baby Girl Pram

Made for Inspiration Challenge #295, I found an adorable picture of a rabbit and elephant which inspired the colors.  I know you can't really see it in this photo, but the pram image is sprayed with Vanilla Shimmer Spritz.  I just LOVE the way the spray makes the image glimmer.  This is a card for our interim pastor and his wife who just became grandparents.  I'm going to give it to them tomorrow at church, but I'm concerned for their granddaughter.  She was admitted into the hospital last night because of lost weight.  So little to be having trouble already.  I'm praying for little Montana and I'd love it if you could pray for her recovery, too.  Thanks, stamping friends.

Blessings,
Julie

Baby Bundle Birthday

Nothing fancy, but a fun card that we're making this month at the workshops.  And after the photo, I did turn the bear slightly because he looked too much at attention.  :-)  The bear was colored in with my blender pen for a watercolored look.  it's a quick and easy card that doesn't take much time...the best kind!  

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station!

....Since July 1st????!!!!!!

Oh my word!!! I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted. So sorry! We've been having so much summer fun that I guess I forgot to post. That, and I haven't had much time to stamp. But now I'm breaking out my new goodies from the new SU! catalog. This adorable set is called Baby Bundle and I LOVE it! I used the Build A Bear Pawsitively Prints II DSP and sponged around the main piece with So Saffron. The onesie and booties were watercolored on watercolor paper with an aquapainter and reinkers. The polka dots were made with the embossing folder and then sponged over with Certainly Celery ink. I used the SASC61 sketch challenge on Stampin' Addicts for the layout inspiration.
This card also started with a sketch challenge from Stampin' Addicts. I used SASC60 and my new Growing Green stamp set to jump start this one. The DSP is Woodland Walk and it's gorgeous! After stamping and coloring the images with my markers, I covered the whole piece of Vanilla cardstock with Versamark and then sprinkled Iridescent Ice embossing powder on it. After heating it to melt the embossing powder, the colors on the stamped image are deeper and beautiful. I wish you could see it IRL, because it looks much better than in the photo.

Well, thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station once again. I'll try to have another post soon.

Blessings,
Julie
