Good Monday morning everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. It was quite windy and cold here but the snow is almost all gone. I’m so ready for spring!
We have a “Bonus Project” day at Create with Connie & Mary today. Mary has done up a cute FREE “Bonus” Project Sheet using the Baby Boutique Stamp Set. This is another great idea of what our subscription to the Card “Create”tions for All Occasions Edition is all about. She used the sketch below for one of her 4 cards and is also offering Blog Candy on her site StamperCamper’s Corner. Make sure you visit to sign up.
We, the Design Team, have also used the sketch below to show you some more ideas using stamp sets in the catalog:
And this is my card:
I used not one, not two, not three…but four stamp sets from the catalog to complete this card. The butterfly is from Summer Solstice, the branch image from Fabulous Florets, the sentiment from Take Care and the splotches from French Foliage. How’s that for a line-up?
I hope the French Foliage stamp set is a set that will carry into the new catalog because the “splotch” stamp image is one of my favorites and you can tell just by looking at my stamp how much I’ve used it. It just finishes off a card so well!
Make sure you visit Create with Connie & Mary today to see some more ideas and samples and to download Mary’s “bonus project”! It’s not too late to join in on the fun also. Where else can you find Over 72 EXCLUSIVE cards with 18 stamp sets featured for $19.95!

Oh Debbie: You're not going to believe this but I just ordered the Summer Solstice stamp set this morning!! I've been wanting it for a long, long time and today, I took advantage of the free shipping and got it. I also hope the French Foliage set is carried over, it's beautiful. I have other leaf sets and that's why I passed this one over but the splotch stamp alone is worth it!! I love your card, I have all the other elements so I will be CASEing it. Thank you for sharing.
Maria.
So glad you like it Maria and great that you are going to CASE my card! I'm honored, thank you!
Super cute, Debbie…love all the details on here…the embossed Oval Frame, the textures, the butterfly. I also used French Foliage on MY card today! Great minds! Thanks SO much!
Thanks Connie! Off to visit the other designers, just got home from being on the road all day!
I do like the colour combination and the layering…very versatile cards for many occasions. I like the splotch too …have to look closer at the catalogue…I have never noticed it.
I've resurrected my blog…please have a look of you're roaming the web!!
Sarah, thanks for letting me know about your blog. I'll be sure to visit when I get a minute. Thanks so much for your comment, the splotch stamp is my favorite to add to backgrounds and stamped images!
Fabulous card and yummy colors…and I am sooo agreeing about the Splotch! I did not purchase this set til the beginning of this year and there are really so many ways to use the whole set as well as parts. TFS!!!! Glad you are finally getting some Spring up there!!!
My Paper Pumpkin also had a splotch stamp image in the first kit. My girls were so excited! Thanks Carol!
Wowza, this card is stunning, gorgeous, and perfect in every way!!! The combination of stamped elements, textures and colors is so eye catching. Awesome job, Ebeth
Thanks Elizabeth. So nice working with you again!
