Clean and Simple Card Class 2- Day 1

I LOVE this layout and I will so copy it again! Thank you Kristina! In the last class, Jennifer McGuire taught me to put my new goodies in a side box for when I need inspiration, so I did. Thank you Jennifer love that idea! I used a new background from Impression Obsession, stamped in versa mark and embossed with clear EP. The sentiment is from Hero Arts-Fancy Basics.  I did take all of Kristina's advice, and I used a pencil to draw out the circle and I also added a straight line (with my T-ruler) to make sure the sentiment was straight.  Finally, the ribbon is from SU Sale-A-Bration ribbon bundle.

Very Simple! I hope you like it.....

Make it Monday #101

Oh man, after the January Blog Hop I am addicted to my colored embossing powder, and can't wait to add to my collection. For my card, I stamped and embossed the Medallion Bkg in white first and then added the green embossing detail second. I used PTI new Think Big Favorite #24 (can't believe we are up to 24 already) with the Half & Half die. I love green and pink!!!! Have a good night, we are iced in here in Iowa.

January 2013 Blog Hop

Wow was this fun! I had no idea how striking colored embossing powder can look on black card stock. I LOVE embossing but usually with clear or white embossing powder but now I am hooked and I see a new addiction in my future. Have a great weekend!

Supplies: Harvest Berries, Photo Finisher dies and stamp set, White and Wild Wasabi EP from Stampin Up, Versa Mark Ink.

Make It Monday #99

Wow! Time really flies! I can't believe I have been away from my blog for so long. I really didn't mean to be gone for so long! Life has been super crazy- a couple of trips, Christmas, helping my mom after surgery, etc. I am sure you can relate! And, I hope you all had a GREAT holiday!

Enough of that and on to this weeks Make it Monday. I have two cards to share. This first one is based on Nicole's Birthday card from Saturday

I used the Rainbow Color Scheme #6. I used the PTI grid paper, I flipped the paper over so I didn't have to see the lines on my finished card. I then put the paper on my light box and stamped. I hope you like it!

Supplies: Guide Lines Two, Embroidered Blooms, Inks, #6 color Scheme, rhinestones.
