For the Bride and Groom

Wedding cards are some of my favorite cards to make. The Wedding day stamp set makes it even better since the images and sentiments are terrific. So, I am going to show you a card using the wedding bells image from the set. This bells image is also available as a digi stamp too.



I chose a nice soft palette for my card and used papers from the Basic Grey Capella collection which work beautifully. I stamped the image, colored it with copics, then sponged some sky ink around it while still in my die. I then used frosted lace stickles for the bow and pearls in the middle of the flowers. The scallops of the circle were pierced and all the edges were sewn.

Here is a closer look for you


Thanks for looking today and I hope you have a blessed day!

To Have and To Hold...

Well, it's that time of year when weddings are in abundance! A joining of two people in the eyes of God can be a beautiful event. Today, my card uses the newly released stamp set called "Wedding Day" which features fabulous sentiments, a beautiful wedding cake and bells. I used a 3D effect on my card where I stamped the image three times, then cut out various portions and layered it with pop up dots! It's a fun technique and really adds a WOW factor to your card! I added some pretty lace trim because it looks like icing!! 

May God enrich your week!

Hugs, Darsie

Clean & Simple, One Mistake and some Elegance

Happy Friday everyone.

I love candles. To me, the soft glow from the light of a candle create a feeling of tranquility, peace and coziness. I was excited to see the Lights of Home and Lights Sentiment digi sets.

I confess that this card is a quick & simple card. I used some DP scraps from my scrap basket and white card stock. The candle image is printed onto Neenah Classic Crest Super Smooth card stock and colored with Copics.

My next card was actually my first card I worked on. I followed this weeks Sweet Stop Sketch. And in the end I just wasn't happy with it. It looks lopsided, but thought I'd let you guys see it anyway :-).

My last card is one of my favorites. I already featured it on my blog but wanted to share it here too.

I used the bells from the Wedding Day digi set double stacked them to create a dimensional effect. I love doing that, it really does add such dimension which you can see in the close-up below.

Before getting ready for this post, I jumped over to Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps and 'oohhhed' and 'aahhed'. Seriously, have YOU seen the latest digi stamps? That Asian Doll digi has my name all over it, lol.... You guys have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to stop back here tomorrow for some inspiration from our guest DT, Lisa Jurecek.

A Couple of Oldies But Goodies!

Happy Monday! We hope you had a terrific weekend! Our sweet Nicole is taking a much-needed break today, so Sandy and I have a couple of cards to share with you. We thought it would be fun to showcase a couple of our "oldies but goodies" today -- digis that maybe you didn't know we carry, but are some of our all-time favorites.

This sweet little ladybug is a SNSS digi called, A Flower For You! I think it's adorable and makes the best kids' birthday cards, thinking of you, and friend-type cards! Korin has created a digi set of sentiments just for the ladybug called Ladybug Sentiments.

This elegant wedding cake and coordinating greeting are part of the Wedding Day digi set. The set also includes a lovely bell image, as well as several other wonderful sentiments. It is perfect for wedding and anniversary cards.

Did you know that there are currently 90 different digis/digi sets available at the SNSS store? We show you many samples throughout the week with the newly released digis, but we have many more in our store that we don't want you to forget about. Be sure to stop in and browse the DIGI area of the store. Maybe you'll find something you need! :-)

Blessings and Hugs,

Sandy & Deedee
