Happy 60th Birthday Invitations

My mom is turning 60 in September.  I made 24 invitations... similar to the one's above. I changed out the patterned paper, it was fun using up my stash!  PTI dies were a perfect fit for the big 60...and they have to be sparkly for my mom.  Headed to Knotts Berry Farm and then onto Soak City the next day with my kids and neighbors.... maybe I will have time this weekend to get crafty again.

DeNami Sketch Challenge

It feels like it's been WAY too long since I've done a sketch challenge... how about you?  Use the sketch, plus one DeNami stamp, upload... and you have a chance to win a $20 Gift Certificate to DeNami!

You can check out this one on the DeNami Blog, sketch made by Nami.  When you are there you can see other cards using the same sketch by the DT.

I've always loved this gorgeous cross stamp, it is so pretty!  I wanted it to stand out, so I tried to keep the rest of my card elements to a minimum.  Just some basic layering and pretty patterned paper. 

I stamped the cross with Versamark and heat embossed with gold DeNami Embossing Powder.  Added a bit of green to the leafy portion and then used the quickie glue pen with some extra fine glitter to give it a little glitz.

Stamp: Cross, Cardstock: Cream, Amethyst, Irr. Gold, Tangerine.

DeNami Product Spotlight: Small Grapes

This week the DeNami Design Team is spotlighting this super sweet Small Grapes Stamp. Grab one up quick, 10% off this week... the stamp is only $4.77.

I used a traditional grape color combo for this card, I just can't get enough of the Amethyst Cardstock.  I used a Viva Pearl Pen to add texture to the grapes in the center of my circle, and a few dots on the lavender piece too.  I used the leaf image from one of my favorite new sets: Ornament Flowers.

I just got back from a 33 day vacation to see my family in WA.  I hope to blog more often as soon as I uncover myself from a bit of my long to-do list!  I haven't stamped for about 5 weeks!

Stamps: Small Grapes, Thinking of you. Ornamental Flowers: I used the leaf image only.

Cardstock: Amethyst Cardstock, Lavendar, White, Celery.

Purple Grosgrain Ribbon, Versafine Ink: Imperial Purple, Olympia Green.

DeNami Product Spotlight: Bold Hibiscus

The DeNami Design team has some GORGEOUS cards for you to see using the Large Bold Hibiscus.  Make sure you visit the DeNami Blog --- and the stamp is 10% off too!!

I love this stamp! So easy to stamp and cut out. I'm not one for "fussy" cutting, but I can easily do this one. I added some buttons to the center and some leaves, otherwise I wanted the flower to take center stage on this one.  

Stamps: Large Bold Hibiscus, Wide Leaf.
