Mojo Monday Bordering On Romance

I love to do the challenges at Mojo Monday when I get a chance.  So today's card is one that I did using the Bordering On Romance stamp set from the 2012 Occasions Mini. 

 CREATE

Card Foundation - Whisper White CS (100730)

Layer 1 - Wisteria Wonder CS (122922)

Layer 2 - This layer consists of two sheets from the Specialty Designer Series Paper - Sweet Shop (125408) in the 2012 Occasions Mini

Layer 3 - The stamp set is Bordering On Romance (w125480 c125482). I stamped this image in StazOn Black Ink (101406) because I wanted to watercolor the flowers using Wisteria Wonder (122931) and Lucky Limeade (122930) reinkers. I used our Aqua Painter (103954) to color in my flowers. After the watercoloring had dried I added Dazzling Details (124117) and Basic Pearl Jewels (119247)

Greeting - The greeting for this card is from the Loving Thoughts stamp set (w125843 c125845) in the 2012 Occasions Mini stamped in Classic Basic Gray Ink (109120). And adorned with three Basic Pearl Jewels.

Embellishments -  I add our 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon in Wisteria Wonder (122973) and tied a simple knot on the corner of the card. The layer of Specialty Designer Series Paper - Sweet Shop was created using the Scallop Trim Border Punch (118402)

Mixed Bunch Card

Today's card is one that I made at Leadership a couple of weeks ago.  It's from the Mixed Bunch stamp set.  I made two of these cards, one for me and the other was donated to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.

Mixed Bunch Thank You Card!

Card Foundation - Daffodil Delight CS (119683)

Layer 1 - I used Whisper White CS (100730) and stamped one of the large flowers from the Mixed Bunch stamp set (w125535 c125537) stamped in Classic Daffodil Delight Ink (119667). The bottom half of this layer is a piece of Wild Wasabi CS (108641) stamped with one of the small flowers from the Mixed Bunch stamp set also stamped in Wild Wasabi ink (109014).  The shape for the  Poppy Parade (119793) strip of card stock was created using the Scallop Edge Border Punch (119882) and stamped with one of the smaller flowers from the same stamp set and stamped in Poppy Parade (119782). This layer was adhered to my card using Stampin' Dimesionals (104430).

Layer 2 - Two of these large flowers were punched out of Whisper White CS (100730) using the Blossom Punch (125603 - 2012 Occasion Mini). Each petal was sniped three times with the Paper Snips (103579).  On top of that flower is a flower embellishment from the Designer Printed Kit (125410 - 2012 occasion Mini), and that embellishment is adorned with a 5/8" double circle button in Daffodil Delight Button from the Brights Designer Buttons (127714) in the 2012 Occasions Mini. The two flowers were connected using Dimesionals. 

Greeting - The "Thanks" is from one of the stamps in the Thank You Kindly stamp sets (111700).  I used a Wild Wasabi Marker (120975) and colored in only the "Thanks" on the stamp that reads Kind Thanks.  It was adhered to my card using Snail Adhesive (104331)
