Happy Valentine's Day

I am a romantic.  I love flowers and chocolate and cheesy love notes.  Sadly, my husband doesn't have a romantic bone in his body.  I created this beautiful card for him anyway with Take it to Heart from the Occasions Mini catalog.

I used Early Espresso, Whisper White, Real Red DSP and of course our beautiful Red Shimmer Paper.  Ink is Early Espresso and the ribbon is our 1 1/4" striped grosgrain in Early Espresso (now discontinued).

Happy Valentine's Day!

Heaven Blessed

It's been a while since I've posted any card samples. It seems I've had some creativity block lately and haven't really been happy with what I've created.

Even this card I'm posting isn't up to par in my eyes. I like the reflection technique I've used; but I'm just not sure about the rest. What do you think?

The stamp set is Heaven Blessed from the new Occasions Mini catalog. I've used marina mist, melon mambo DSP and wysteria wonder to matte the image. Ofcourse, it IS Sale-A-Bration so when you spend $60 you get to pick a free product from the Sale-A-Bration catalog.

The Never Ending Card

I'm so excited that I FINALLY figured out how to make these super cute and thrilling cards.  The never ending card, is just that, a card that has no end.  It's difficult to tell how much fun they are in the following photos; but, everyone will LOVE getting one of these cards.

The following card is done up for Christmas, but can easily be changed for any occasion.  I've used the Bright Hopes set from the Holiday Mini catalog.

To book your workshop to learn how to make these cards, please contact me at stampnsteph@gmail.com or 905-320-4477.

Winter is Lovely

 I wanted to create a card using a set that can be used for every occasion.  While I LOVE Christmas and all of our holiday sets, sometimes you can do an equally beautiful card using a more versatile set.  This card was created using Lovely as a Tree.  One of my favourite nature sets, I can use it for almost anything.

Here I've paired it with the "Season's Greetings" from Snow Swirled.  The card is chocolate chip, with an always artichoke embossed accent using the Snow Bursts embossing folder for the big shot.  The trees are stamped in always artichoke on white shimmer paper and matted with bravo burgundy, which I also used for the saying.  Silver brads and cording tie it all together to give this simple card a more elegant look.
