Next, I stamped the snow, using Soft Sky.

I then matted the card with Real Red or Garden Green.

High Note

Note cards are fun and easier to fill. The smaller canvas somehow makes it all seem rather cute. One stamp can take up the entire front if you let it. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   High Tide

Paper:

   Whisper White Note Card 5 x 3-1/2, 4-3/4 x 3-1/4 (2)

   Night of Navy 4-7/8 x 3-3/8

Ink:

   Night of Navy

   Pacific Point

   Soft Suede

   So Saffron

Technique:

   Stamp-Off

Accessories:

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the sand at the bottom of the Whisper White panel, using Soft Suede. I stamped-off to get a lighter shade of Soft Suede.

I then stamped the lighthouse, using Pacific Point. This is a two-step stamp, so I inked up the full lighthouse with Pacific Point, but I stamped-off on scratch paper first, and then stamped the white panel. I then took the detailed image of the light house and stamped it over the first image with a full strength of Pacific Point. You may want to play with this on a scratch paper before stamping your panel.

Next, I stamped the sentiment, using Night of Navy on the right side of the lighthouse.

I then added a beam of light with So Saffron ink.

Next, I stamped the birds, using Soft Suede and added gritty sand to the beach. I did NOT stamp-off for these.

I then adhered the panel onto a Night of Navy matte, and then onto the front of the Note Card.

Lastly, I adhered a panel to the inside of the note card.

Beyond the Horizon

The March, 2022 Paper Pumpkin kit included an extra stamp set for subscribers to use. I made three cards, using left-over tags, ribbon, and embellishments along with the extra stamp set. What do you think?

Beyond the Horizon

Beyond the Horizon Too

Beyond the Horizon Tre

Stamps:

   Beyond the Horizon Extra Paper Pumpkin 3/22

   Evening Evergreen

   Misty Moonlight

Technique:

   2-Step Stamping

Accessories:

First, I stamped flowers randomly using Bumblebee ink. This was step 1. I also stamped the flower twice without re-inking to get a color variation.

I then stamped the details on the flowers using Calypso Coral ink. This was step 2. Again, I stamped twice without re-inking for a color variation.

Next, I added leaves using Evening Evergreen.

The tags were stamped in Misty Moonlight and added using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added ribbon and rhinestones.

Open Delicate Dahlias

Filled Delicate Dahlias

I was challenged to take a SIP: Stamps, Ink, and Paper. So, I did. Simplicity in essence should be very simple, but I sometimes find it difficult to stop. For example, I will probably dress this card up more by adding rhinestones or pearls. I might even add a tiny bow. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Delicate Dahlias

Paper:

   Whisper White Note Card

Ink:

   Garden Green

   Highland Heather

   Tuxedo Black Memento

Technique:

   2-Step Stamping

   Stamp-Off

   CAS

Accessories:

   None

First, I stamped the dahlias using the solid image only and inking my stamp with Highland Heather. I stamped one dahlia on the lower center of my note card and then added partial images around it.

Next, I added leaves to the dahlias. I stamped the solid leaf image using Garden Green. I did stamp-off on a scrap piece of paper before stamping on my card. 

Lastly, I added my sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento. 

I think the card is beautiful and finished. Still, I love the sparkle, but since it is a sympathy card, I will more than likely add a pearl or two on the center dahlia only. Thoughts?

Beautiful Birthday Note

 I like the simplicity of this card. The font on the sentiment adds a lovely touch to it. Thoughts?

Stamps:

   Painted Glass

Paper:

   Whisper White 5 x 3-1/2 (Note Cards)

   Fresh Fig 2-3/4 x 3

   Fresh Florals DSP 2-1/4 x 2-1/2

Ink:

   Fresh Fig

Technique:

   CAS

Accessories:

   Basic Rhinestone Jewels

   Adhesive

First, I adhered my Fresh Florals DSP to a Fresh Fig matte. 

I then adhered this to the top center of a note card. If you do not have note cards, you can make your own: 5 x 7 score at 3-1/2, gives you a 5 x 3-1/2 card.

I then stamped my sentiment on the bottom center using Fresh Fig ink. 

Lastly, I added a couple of rhinestones to the centers of the florals.

This is an easy way to use scraps or odd pieces of DSP. Create corners or strips on one side and center your sentiment. Note cards are great to keep on hand.

Thoughtful Rosie

 I like to keep a package of note cards at the ready in case I need to make a stack of cards. Since the base is 5 x 7 scored at 3-1/2, the card must be clean and simple. This means you only need three ingredients: stamps, ink, and paper. I like to keep the ink to one color. If the recipient wants two colors, I will stamp the sentiment in another color. Here are two thank you cards to demonstrate what I mean. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Floral Phrases

Paper:

   Whisper White 5 x 7 Note Card

Ink:

   Blueberry Bushel

   Merry Merlot

Technique:

   CAS

Accessories:

   None

These note cards and envelopes are sold in a package of 20 for $7, item #159232. Order HERE. They are also sold in Very Vanilla.

First, I stamped the floral design on the top of the card.

I then stamped the sentiment in the middle of the card front.

Lastly, I stamped the floral border on the bottom third of the card.

Using a Stamparatus or MISTI tool will speed the process, guarantee exact placement, and keep all of the cards uniform.

Shining Light Rays

 Having a smaller canvas to work with can be easier when you are creating a card. This is a note card size. You can buy this size in white and vanilla. There are 20 scored cards with envelopes. All you do is add to the card front and write or stamp on the inside. Of course, you have to mail it too! I like to keep two or three packs handy. What do you think?

Stamps:

   High Tide

Paper:

   Whisper White 5 x 3-1/2 (Note Card), 4-3/4 x 3-1/4

   Night of Navy 4-7/8 x 3-3/8

Ink:

   Night of Navy

   Pacific Point

   Crumb Cake

   Soft Suede

   Daffodil Delight

Technique:

   Sponging

   Masking

Accessories:

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the sun and rays using a sponge and a straight edge.

Next, I stamped the beach on the bottom left using Crumb Cake.

I then decided to stamp my sentiment on the top right with Night of Navy. This way my water level would not go up too high. 

I then masked off my beach area using a sticky note. I then stamped my water using Pacific Point. It is a small stamp, so I did stamp over and over until I was happy with it. The idea was to keep the horizon as straight as I could.

Lastly, I stamped my gulls. I did not realize that the blue water was going to come through the Soft Suede. I don't think it is that noticeable. I think I may try using Basic Black, or stamping and masking them before stamping the water. Any suggestions?
