Discovering vellum prints

Hi everyone!  I have another card to share for the Discovery Month over on the FSJ Blog!  This card "discovers" the new Vellum prints.  Fun Stamper’s Journey vellum includes plain and printed sheets.  The printed sheets have super cute metallic prints in stars, strips, and polka-dot designs and come in gold, silver and black.My card uses the vellum prints in gold in a couple of ways.  I used them as a background behind my square openings, I punched a vellum gold dot into a butterfly shape and I hand cut out a little star.For the butterfly at the lower left, I stamped the vellum in Beach Breeze with Butterfly Prints and used its coordinating die  then layered it with some gold cardstock die cut with one of the larger butterflies from the same die set.

Die cut love

Hi everyone!  I have a fun card to share using dies only.  No stamps!  This is part of the "discovery" month going on over on the Fun Stampers Journey blog.  Each day discovering new things.  This card discovers card making sans stamping.  I have to admit, this was easy to do with all the amazing dies out there.  Right!?!It's hard to see in the picture, but I embossed the white background piece with the Yummy Dots embossing folder for some added interest.  I used the Snapshot Frames die with Pool Play cardstock to make my focal point.
The flowers are cut with the Daisy Blooms die using Pretty Amethyst and Grape Fusion Cardstock. The leaves are made with Lemongrass cardstock and I used a mouse pad and the medium stylus on the bloom tool to etch the veins in the leaf.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!  Here's a close up pic.

Yummy and Delicious card set

Hi everyone!  I thought I would share a set of cards featuring FSJ's Yummy & Delicious collection.  I sent these in to the Journey Station and they staged them with a fabulous banner made by the lovely Tania Willis.  And check out those cupcakes and candy sticks - yes please!!

You may recognize the Ice cream card second from right, I already blogged that cutie in the post below. 
You can see the entire Yummy and Delicious collection here (edited to add: there is a problem with the direct link, so click and then scroll down on the right until you see Yummy & Delicious category.)

Just a reminder that FSJ products are only available through a Journey Coach (I am not a coach), please visit Fun Stampers Journey and click on the button "find a coach" at the very top right.

We all scream for ice cream!

Hi everyone!  Happy Monday!  I have a fun and simple ice cream card for you.  It's back to being freaky deeky hot here in Portland and my discovery that Costco now sells It's It ice creams (jumbo box y'all!) couldn't have come at a better time.  Dr. Michelle prescribes one each day to help keep cool!

Aren't these ice cream cones the CUTEST?!?  I paper pieced them, added a single sequin and some thread.  Boom, easy peasy!  Stay cool out there for all you suffering in the heat!
