SSNOTIME KSS Style!!

Wow am I late with my post or what? Sorry about that. Today Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge is to make a LOVE card. I always think of beautiful roses when I think of love. So I pulled out my Kitchen Sink Stamps and created this card. The designer paper is BG you can find it at i{heart}papers. I really like the way this turned out. I hope you have a great day! Thanks for stopping by.

See what the awesome Stamp Simply team has to share. Deb, Becky, Sharon, Tammy, Janine, AJ, Julie and Jennifer

From CHA Graphic 45 & Flower Soft!!!

Hi there! Kate from i{heart}papers is at CHA and some of the design team have been reporting and sharing pictures she has sent us to show to all of you. If you've missed some of the other blog post please visit the i{heart}papers blog for links to Tracy, Lori, Carolyn & Loretta who have all reported for Kate this week. As you know I LOVE Graphic 45 I asked Kate to stop by their booth for me. Kate sent me the following photos from Graphic 45! Thanks so much Kate.

Next up is Flower Soft. I've seen a few things made with this on blogs in the past. I'm so glad Kate sent me these photos because I think this is pretty darn cool. I have to do some research on this product but the samples are gorgeous. I love the texture it adds. I can't wait to see if she will be carring it in the store:)

I should be back with more photos later today! TFL!

It's KSS Monday!! Easy as 123!

Happy Monday! Today the Kitchen Sink Crew challenge is hosted by DT memeber Lori. Here's her challenge to us is to use a non floral multi step set to make a card today. I made this card for my husband for Valentine's Day using the new 3-step Heart set. I used 1/2 Pint Playful Alphabet Buddy for the words. The numbers are from 3 Step Graduation. It's really plain Jane but I just couldn't add ribbon or bows on my husband card KWIM? Anyway I'm sure he will love it! If you want to see how to stamp with the 3Step stamps from KSS check out Maria's awesome tutorial on the Planet here.

As always the KSS Crew has some fabulous cards for you today!! Thanks Lori for a fun challenge:)

Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the day:)

SSNOTIME 71 A Modern Edge & Flourishes Friday!!

Hi there! Happy Friday!! This means I have the Stamp Simply challenge and the Friends Of Flourishes Friday Post for you. Today Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge is to make a Modern card. You can read her thoughts on that here.I used post it notes to mask off the different areas and sponged in More Mustard, Really Rust, Caramel, Cocoa inks. I then stamped the flowers from the Spring Ephamerals set. The sentiment is from the Thinking Of You set. it doesn't show in the photo very well but I used the flourish stamp from Wedding Essentials on the mustard and rust areas. All the sets can be found at Flourishes. So here's my take on the challenge

Please visit the Stamp Simply designer's you are in for a treat!
