Pink Posies

Today's card is inspired by the abundance of flowers we're seeing this month - peonies and roses particularly.

supplies:  white, ivory, pinks, and greens cardstock, Altenew Fantasy Floral dies, Tammy Tutterow sentiment, Sunny Studio Frilly Eyelet die, adhesive foam strips to separate flower layers

Hope this helps to lift your spirits - making it surely did wonders for me!    

Fleur Impressions

Hi!  Hope you are doing well and staying healthy!

I haven't played with these gorgeous layered stamps in probably a year or so.  When I did stamp them, the majority of my images were then fussy-cut and arranged.  Today I wanted to stamp some pretty bouquets directly onto my card front, no cutting allowed.  I did 2 cards, very much the same.

supplies: white and pink cardstock, The Greetery Fleur Impressions, Altenew mini inks in Florals (pinks), Golden Sunset, and Green Valley collections, Tammy Tutterow Sweet Petite Sentiments, Sunny Studio Frilly Eyelet Lace Frame die

supplies: white cardstock, Fleur Impressions stamps, same inks as above, Tammy Tutterow (retired) Sew Tiny Sentiments, Penny Black Stitched Stackers die

I love the font/handwriting that Tammy uses on her sentiments!  To me, they are so feminine, perfect for a card filled with flowers!  And both of these cards can now be used for a variety of occasions.

A New Venture for Tammy!

Hello friends!

Tammy Tutterow is debuting a line of dies and stamps from Maker's Movement!  I was thrilled to receive them, and will be sharing with you as I play with them.  Today I have some cards and tags using some of her new designs.

supplies: black and pink cardstock, dps from Carta Bella Botanical Garden paper pad, Tammy's Nested Square Tags, sentiment from her new Sweet Petite Sentiments clear stamps, my own green leafy ribbon and a paper rose

Do you have lots of 6" paper pads like I do?  These nesting dies are perfect to use a couple of coordinating papers and make a super simple tag for any occasion.  I thought this one would work for a wedding or shower.  In order to separate the patterns a bit, I cut each tag a 2nd time from a solid cardstock, then trimmed the printed one just a tad on the sides so that the solid would "frame" it and let each pretty pattern show up better.  

Next up is a birthday tag.

supplies: Lipstick Red, Green Leaf, Sunshine, Orange Peel, and Burnt Orange cardstock,  a plaid and a neutral design paper, Tammy's Nested Round Top Tags, her Petite Posy dies, and a sentiment from Sweet Petite Sentiments, enamel dots 

Here I used the largest and smallest of the nested dies, first cutting out the large one from a plaid patterned paper, and then from that I cut out the small one.  I also cut a 2nd large tag as a lining (and a place to adhere my heart).  I glued that to the back of the large plaid tag.   I added flowers on both tags, stamped my sentiment on the smaller one, and added the heart (which comes in the tag set) to the backing for the large tag.  These poseys and the prim heart are Tammy's signature designs, and happen to be favorite motifs of mine, too!  I just used one of the poseys and 1 leaf, but the Posey set contains 20 different pieces!

If you're wondering about size, the largest of each set are about 2 3/4 inches wide by 4 3/8" long, a perfect size as a stand-alone, or to mount onto a card front.

Next I have a baby card using a darling stamp set.  Again I mixed it with some patterned paper.

supplies: white, Mint and Cotton Candy cardstock, floral patterned paper, Tammy's Little Feet stamps (onesie and sentiment), tiny pink buttons

This is a sketch that I've used before.  I love that the sentiment is part solid and part outline, so that the colors you use can be brought in there, too.  

And one more.

supplies: white cardstock, dps from Doodlebug, Sweet Petite Sentiments stamps and matching dies, a heart embossing folder

These dies consist of an oval that will hold any of Tammy's Sweet Petite Sentiments, and a larger scalloped oval to frame it, plus a selection of 3 posies and some leaves.
