A Wedding Thank You

Today is a BIG day! I will be getting my Holiday catalogue pre-order today! The Holiday Catalogue is AMAZING and I can't wait to start creating and sharing some of the great new products coming out! But lets get on with the card!

My little sister - Catherine - is getting married and I will be making the Save the Dates, wedding invites and thank you cards - don't worry I will be posting about this adventure while it is under way. Cath and I are still hashing out details with the invites but she has chosen this style for her thank you cards, so I have started to make them up for her. Don't they look so elegant? The colours she has chosen are similar to Elegant Eggplant and Bermuda Bay so half of everything will be in those two colours. This card was actually quite quick to put together. I ran the Elegant Eggplant through the Big Shot with the swirls envelop (which isn't stampin up I am afraid but we all have items in our craft rooms from different places right?) cut them into the flags then added the white and black strip a quick stamp and it was done.

Quick tip: I used my hexagon punch to make the flags! This way I would insure that they were all even and looked the same - I will be sure to post pictures of how you do that in the next few days - once I have the hubby home to hold the camera while I am doing it lol!

Dee-Litefully Yours,
Diana

If you would like me to mail you out a catalogue send me an email and I will be sure to get it out to you! Ordering starts on Aug 28 so don't wait!!

DSP Dots


Today's card was so fast! I started with Hello Honey card stock and decided to run the whole card front through the Big Shot with the Lots of Dots embossing folder. Used up some DSP I had a bit left of (waiting for my order to come in - I am quite low on DSP after all the treat holders I made!) Rich Razzleberry flag background with Whisper White on the front. Sentiment in Hello Honey with a few candy Dots added to finish it all up! This card is great for using up scraps and again simply changing the DSP would change the entire look of the card!
 
Dee-Litefully Yours,

White on Black















 I have been playing around with different techniques and saw this one so decided to CASE it. (Copy And Share Everything - a new term, I heard it at my Team Meeting and I have always called it scraplifting but CASE works too).

For this piece I wanted to try stamping on black paper (something I have never done before!) I used the Regarding Dahlia stamp set (which is not retiring - thank goodness! I love this stamp set!) stamped with Versa Mark ink. I then stamped it on the black paper and covered it with snow embossing power (not stampin up but it is what I had around) I then took my heat tool and ta da! Got this beautiful result!! I love the detail in the flower and how it really pops off the page! Tomorrow I will show you colour on black.

Until then I am Dee-liteful yours,
Diana
