Great Impressions: I Color All Dog Images Like My Fur Baby...

Hi, friends!  It's time for another post using stamps from the Great Impressions online store!  This time, I've got a sweet puppy friend joining me...and this raises a question.  Is it strange that I color almost every single dog image like my fur baby?!  It's just second nature now... ;)  Take a peek at this latest dog image...

Here's my card~

Products used: A147 Buzzing By, F582 Potted Puppy

I just LOVE this new image!!!  The puppy is darling and I adore the fact that it's in a gardening pot--such a sweet scene!  This is one of the NEWEST IMAGES available HERE in the Great Impression store!

And here's my fur baby for comparison~

DDD: Happy Everything + Wednesday Wisdom

Hello again, friends!  It's hump day!!!  Hope your week is going well and I hope that you have an amazing finish to it as well!  I'm here with another card using digital elements from Diane's Daydream Designs.  This week, I've got a fun HAPPY EVERYTHING summer card to share with you all!

Here's my card~

Products used: Summer Breeze Papers, Beachscapes, Pot of Tulips (sentiment)

Remember last week?  I said I was going to be more positive?  Well, it's still my goal.  And I think it always will be.  But, as a Christian, I have every reason to rejoice and be happy!  I have a knowledge and a belief in the Atonement of Jesus Christ.  As I utilize it in my life, I can be made clean and eventually live again with my Father.

I have a new motto scripture to go along with this. It's Job 17:9, "The righteous also shall hold on his way, and he that hath clean hands shall be stronger and stronger."

My goal, along with last week's goal, is to clean unto the Savior so that I can become stronger and stronger.  Won't you join me? :)

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek at my creation!  I hope that you make the choice to start your new life TODAY and that we can work together to become stronger!  YOU ARE LOVED.  HUGS and happy stamping to you all!  See you soon! :)

Sweet Stamps: GDT + Painter's Tape Technique

Hi, friends! I am back with another creation as the Guest Designer at Sweet Stamps!  This time I'm using a beautiful silhouette image from the collection of their wonderful rubber cling stamps!  This week, I've been asked to create something that uses the PAINTER'S TAPE TECHNIQUE!  This is also in conjunction with their monthly challenge, so I hope you hop over to the blog to play along!

Here's my creation~

Detail~

Product used: Queen Anne's Wildflowers Silhouette 6008

I am IN LOVE with this gorgeous silhouette image!  I think it is the perfect fit for this technique, too!  It's the right size to fill up the card but not too big.  It's chunky enough to stand on its own but delicate enough to show the painters tape inking.  LOVE IT!

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek at my creation!  I hope you've been inspired to create something today!  Come back on Saturday for another creation using Sweet Stamps products!  HUGS and happy stamping, friends!

Sweet Stamps: GDT + For Dad

Hi, friends! I am back with another creation as the Guest Designer at Sweet Stamps!  This time I'm using a Father's Day sentiment from the collection of their wonderful rubber cling stamps!  This week, I've been asked to create something that goes with the theme FOR DAD!

Here's my creation~

Detail~

Product used: Happy Father's Day 948

I kept this card very simple because I struggle with masculine cards.  This one was super simple when utilizing this fabulous sentiment stamp!  I LOVE the fun font--perfect for any sort of vintage/retro masculine card!  I chose patterned paper that went along with that sort of theme and the only embellishments used were a smattering of black enamel dots.

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek at my creation!  I hope you've been inspired to create something today!  Come back on the 15th for another creation using Sweet Stamps products!  HUGS and happy stamping, friends!
