Simple Thanks Card

The next 3 posts are going to be CAS (clean and simple) cards that you can make up in a hurry.  I always have lots of cards on hand for any occasion, but sometimes we are away in our trailer and I need a card.  That is when I tend to make CAS cards.  I was unhappy when Stampin' Up! discontinued this stamp set called Rue des fleurs.  I love the vintagey look of all of the stamps in this set.
Stamps:  Rue des fleurs
Ink:  Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler
Paper:  Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla
Other:  Fancy Fan Letterpress (R)

Bordering On Romance Layered Card

This card is a little tricky to make, you have to make sure you line everything up just so.  But by taking your time and ensuring placement of the dies, it is easy peasy.  And packs a wholop too.  The letterpress I used for the background is now retired, but you could use the new Fancy Fan Embossing Folder.
I believe this card was cased from someone, but I neglected to write down who.  If it is yours, please email me so I can give you proper credit.
Stamps:  Bordering On Romance, Occasional Quotes
Ink:  Basic Black
Markers:  Pink Pirouette, Lucky Limeade, Pool Party, Basic Black
Paper:  Perfect Plum, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White
Other:  Fancy Fan Letterpress (or Embossing Folder), Labels Framelits Dies, Basic Rhinestones, Modern Label Punch.
Have a great day stampers!

February Thank You Cards

Every customer who places an order gets a hand stamped Thank You card from me.  This one I included in my February orders.  The cute little flower is made by stamping a background stamp (in this case I used a heart from the I {heart} Hearts stamp) then you punch out 4 hearts using the Small Heart Punch.  These are layered on top of a flower section punched using the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch using dimensionals.  They are super cute!  This card was cased from Dawn Griffith.
Stamps:  I {heart} Hearts, Sprinkled Expressions
Ink:  Tempting Turquoise, Marina Mist, Regal Rose, Poppy Parade
Paper:  Whisper White, Tempting Turquoise, Marina Mist, Regal Rose, Poppy Parade
Other:  Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer Punch, Small Heart Punch, Basic Pearls, White Signo Pen
Have a super day!

Hello Thank You Card

Hello everyone!  We are back from our annual sailing trip on our sailboat.  Oh so relaxing.  Someone once asked me what we do on our boat for days on end (with no electronic devices I suppose).  Well, we eat, sleep and read.  Some days we move, other days we don't.  All depends on what we feel like in the morning.
Anyhoo, I have a card to share with you today that I made as thank you cards to put in with my stamper's orders a while back.

Stamps:  Elementary Elegance (retired),
Ink:  VersaMark, Wisteria Wonder, Melon Mambo
Paper:  Pool Party, Whisper White, Melon Mambo
Other:  White Embossing Powder, Curly Label punch

Have a super day ...  Glenda Mollet
