DO Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop DOswts#313- Detailed Dragonfly Retiring

Hi Crafty Friends!!  Welcome to the DOswts#313, the Last Chance Inspiration hop.  Today's hop features the lovely Detailed Dragonfly Thinlets, the awesome Timeless Textures stamp set and some amazing Brusho products.  All three are retiring and are available until 3 June or while supplies last. 
Measurements:
Soft Sea Foam base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Watercolor Paper 5 1/4 x 4
Whisper White liner 5 1/4 x 4
Whisper White scrap for sentiment
Ink:
Smokey Slate, So Saffron, Balmy Blue, Soft Sea Foam
Blends:
Dark Daffodil Delight, Dark Soft Sea Foam, Dark Balmy Blue

TIP:  The dragonfly die cut was made using watercolor paper that was colored with Brush Crystals. Spray the watercolor paper lightly with water and sprinkle on crystals, then spray more water to move and set color. Then use paper toweling to take up excess liquid.  Set aside to let dry or use Heat Tool to speed up the process.

Saying Goodbye To "Artistically Asian" Stamp Set


Many years ago, I fell in love with the stamp set, Artistically Asian.  It reminded me of my many years spent living in Japan.  The bamboo, the chrysanthemum and orchids, so simple and so beautiful.  The sentiments in the set are perfect and I have used them many times for friends in need of a reassurance.  This is your last chance to get this beautiful set before it is officially retired on June 3rd 2019 and the new catalog launches on 4 June 2019. If you would like a 2019-2020 Annual Catalog, free to your mail box, please contact me by 29 April. 

Here are some of my creations with Artistically Asian.



















I hope you have enjoyed seeing some of my Artistically Asian creation, this is a set that I  plan to hold on to as it has brought me lots of creative joy.  It is one I go to when I feel the need to comfort an ailing friend or just to remind someone that I truly appreciate them. 


This is such a beautiful stamp set.  I hope you have been inspired to add it to your shopping cart today...Only available until 3 June 2019.

Demonstrator Training Blog Hop - Daisy Delight


Hello crafty friends!! Welcome to Kylie Bertucci's training group blog hop for April 2019. We are a world-wide group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators working with Kylie from Australia to learn more about improving our Stampin' Up!! businesses.  Make sure to visit the other demonstrators in the hop for some great inspiration.

Today, my card features the Daisy Delight stamp set a perfect stamp for spring.  The design was inspired by fellow card maker Rebecca Borkowski.  It is beautiful day in my part of Texas, a perfect day for flowers. Enjoy!!



Measurements:
So Saffron base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Sahara Sand stamped layer 5 1/4 x 4
So Saffron punched 3 x 6
Soft Suede pinched 2 x 2
Whisper White & So Saffron sentiment  1 x 4 each
Whisper White liner 5 1/4 x 4
Ink:
So Saffron, Soft Suede, Garden Green,
Early Espresso, Tuxedo Black
Stamps:
Daisy Delight, Crackle Paint, Happy Birthday Gorgeous

TIP: Stamp and punch flower in So Saffron, then cut each flower in half and glue together.  Stamp and punch flower center using Soft Suede cardstock with Early Espresso ink.  Glue in place on flower and add dimensional to attach to card front.  One dimensional is enough to hold each flower in place.  Be sure to slightly curl petals before adhering to card front.
