Happy Saturday, oh it is sunny here and the snow is melting where the sun is shining. I ran to town after doing a couple of loads of laundry and then came back home and stamped this card for a challenge. My girlfriend called to come over as she was doing some box and wanted some card stock to cover it with. She came over and got some stuff from me. I still have to make my Corn Chowder but I will get that done soon. It is World Card Making Day so I have my priorities right don't I? Here I am with the second post today to do my duty. LOL! I am just thinking how lucky I am that I am a Stampin' Up! demo and have been to events they held to make so many special friends or just meeting them by blogging and have the commonness of Stampin' Up! I love all my special friends and feel so blessed because of you. I know you know who you are. Thanks to Stampin' UP! I am also honored to that this team of Unscripted Sketches DT chose my Postage Due as a final card. I feel totally blessed.
I love this Daydream Medallions stamp set and this is the set Julia Sager and I are swapping this month. I may or may not send her this card I. My base is the Cajun Craze Card Stock and I then layered a piece of Soft Suede Card Stock that I textured with the Fancy Fan EF. I then layered a piece of the beautiful Comfort Cafe DSP. Then I stamped a big image from the Daydream Medallions Stamp Set in Summer Starfruit on Summer Starfruit Card Stock. Then I stamped the smaller image on Very Vanilla Card Stock in Cajun Craze, Pool Party, and Midnight Muse ink. I used the Floral Frames Framelits to cut out all the flowers and then used the 3/4" Circle Punch for the top layer. Then I stuck a Pearl in the middle. I moved the top layers over a bit and stamped Kindness Matters from the Kindness Matters Stamp Set. I stamped it on the bottom of the flower and had to off set the other part but this weeks challenge was a layout and the layers were crooked, Ha Ha just like my pearl placement it looks like. Oh well! I never ever claim to be perfect. LOL! I cut some of the Crumb Cake Tulle Ribbon and then wrapped an Antique Brad around it and stuck it to my card with a dimensional.
Here are the details:
Stamp Sets: Daydream Medallions, Kindness Matters
Card Stock: Cajun Craze, Soft Suede, Summer Starfruit, Very Vanilla, Comfort Cafe DSP

Happy Thursday Treat Night for you bloggers. Yes, I think you deserve it. This is something old, something new, nothing borrowed, something blue, well okay, Night of Navy. LOL! Yes, this Tangerine Tango background is from the new and upcoming Everything Eleanor stamp set that will be in the next catalog. I received it when I went to the Leadership meeting in San Antonio and it is soooo pretty. You are going to love this two box set. The swirl in the background is part of it also. Yes, I stamped that image and cut it out so I hope we will have a die cut or punch to match it when the new catalog comes out. The butterflies and that swirly design at the top are from Kindness Matters and it really does matter doesn't it?
