For some reason I just have to use the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set on every other card I make lately.  I just love the splatter stamps, although I would leave off he splatter where the sentiment goes. Lately it seems that I also am into coloring my sentiments with my markers. I also have a lot of washi tape and decided I need to use some, so I can by the new that will be coming out June 2nd, when the new catalog starts. I also realized that I could have put the 15th between the Happy and Anniversary and given this to my husband in August when we celebrate our anniversary. Don't you love the Jumbo pearls on this card. They are retiring, so if you want some you need to get them before the end of the month. At first I didn't think I would like them, but they look great on this flower. You could also use 3 small ones, if you don't have the large ones. Also the little punch that I used on the inside flower is retired, but a new set is coming in the new catalog. Thank you for stopping by. If you are ever in the Charleston, Summerville area of South Carolina, stop by and see me. Until then, happy stampin'

Stampin' Up! new Blendabilities (alcohol markers)

I just got my Blendabilities in. I absolutely love, love, love them! They are more affordable than the other alcohol markers out there, they have a square cap so they don't roll off the table, and they come in the fabulous Stampin' Up! colors, so you can get paper, ribbon, ink pads to match. They come in a set of three, so you don't have to try and figure out which markers to blend with. We also have a awesome colorless blender to with them. The set of six skin tone colors is a definite must have. If you never used alcohol markers before, come try them. Blending with them is awesome. I used them on the shell and starfish. I also changed the top of the watercolored section to coral and yellow, instead of the coral and strawberry.

I have the supply list in the studio. I will add it to this post tomorrow. Until then, Happy Stampin'

Everything Eleanor with Lattice
This uses another one of my favorite dies the Lattice Bigz Die. This time it was used as a mask instead of using the cute out die on the card. I actually cut it twice, cut the second in half and using the snail adhered both pieces to the card. Then using a Stampin' Sponge, sponged color onto the Whisper White card stock. 
 My helper, Lisa chose to color her flower Sky Blue, so I had her add a Sky Blue Panel and Ribbon.
