Walking the Dog

Best laid plans... I intended to have five projects for you with this set, shared last week. Well... here's the third!

Today I'm showing off the last image in this set, and this time I used it on a scrapbook page of my dad and my daughter. (you had to know that was coming...!) These pictures are pretty old, and that old dog has crossed the rainbow bridge, but my daughter sure loved her while she was here to love. (yes, my son is in the pictures too, but he is soo my child and more than a little...nervous around dogs....ahem).
I shouldn't have used the Blends on this particular stamped image, because I used the wrong black ink, but didn't have a darker brown or black marker for my dad's hair and I'm leaving it anyway, lol. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Treasures of Life, Skinny Mini Alphabet
Ink: Memento Black, Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray marker, Cinnamon Cider marker, Soft Suede marker, Rococo Rose marker, Blushing Bride marker, Ivory Stampin' Blends, Light Petal Pink Stampin' Blends, Light Black Stampin' Blends 

Paper: Seaside Spray, Whisper White card stocks 

Journaling Font: Just Beautiful Simplicity

and a close up of that sweet image... 

A Valentine!

Back today with another idea for this cute stamp set! 
I think this card will probably go to some grandparents, because I'm going to have my kids mail valentines to their grandparents. But this image works with any adult-child relationship. 

This card uses the latest color combination from TGIF Challenges! I used the Light Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend instead of Real Red, and that's how I recolored the tiny pearls too. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Treasures of Life

Ink: Memento Black
Stampin' Blends: Light Petal Pink, Ivory, Light Cherry Cobbler 

Paper: Smoky Slate, Real Red, Whisper White card stocks

Accessories: Flowers for Every Season ribbon, Basic Pearls

*again with the wonky panel! The picture was taken the same day as yesterday's, in the wind. So weird! 

A Baby Card

Happy Monday! Ready for a new week?
One of my favorite things in the Mini Catalog is this sweet stamp set, called Treasures of Life. This week I'm going to feature some products from this stamp set for you. 

The sentiments in this set indicate that it's intended for grandparents. But really, the images work for parents too. I like them because they'll work for cards as well as scrapbook pages, which is important in my world. 
Today I'm showing a card for a new mom. I happen to know several baby girls who have recently arrived or are coming soon, so I think I'll get some use from this image. She could be a mom just as easily as a grandma. I used the latest from Color Throwdown for my card, tho the watercolor pencils set has Bermuda Bay which isn't totally "minty", and the ribbon I used is Just Jade, which works well but still is not "minty"... 

Supplies:

Stamps: Treasures of Life

Ink: Stazon Black, Highland Heather

Paper: Blushing Bride, Highland Heather & Whisper White card stock

Accessories: Watercolor Pencils, Blender Pen, Flowers for Every Season ribbon, Dimensionals 

*I don't know why the card looks like I put the panel on lopsided...it is straight, I promise. It's just very windy outside so I was fighting the wind and in a hurry...
