Adirondack Impressions

Red, White...

At a recent class, we made this 2 minute Valentine's Day card.  It is simple, yet elegant.

Medallion Sunset

I cased a beautiful card by MIchelle Zindorf for this card.  Mine doesn't even come close to her beautiful work, but I am satisfied with the results.  I used the following stamp sets: Branch Out, Medallion and Baroque Motifs.

Home Decor

One of the things I love about getting pictures from convention is all of the home decorating ideas!  Stampin' Up! always provides a ton of ideas, including things that other demonstrators have stamped.  I just love the look of these decorated items. 

Too Friendly

I recently participated in a card swap where we had to use a wheel on a card.  I chose the Friendly Words wheel.  I love, love, love this wheel!  I used the Baroque Motifs stamp set for the background.  To add a little dimension to the card, I used a build-a-brad and some ribbon.

Wax Resist

I love the wax resist technique.  Unfortunately, I don't remember to do it often enough.  On this card, I stamped on glossy card stock with the Baroque Motifs stamp set and Stazon ink.  Then, I used a white crayon to color the spots I wanted to remain white.  Next, I sponged on the color.  Lastly, I used a tissue to buff the crayon off to reveal the white areas. 

Shapely Dress

On this cold day of winter, let's think about something spring/summer-like: the sleeveless dress!  I drew a pattern and then traced it on to my card stock to form the dress.  I used the white gel pen to create the neckline border. 

Heather's Hen House

Yesterday, I showed you a card created by my friend, Heather.  Today, I have another card she created once again using Baroque Motifs.  Heather is a multi-talented woman with her hand in many pots.  I count my lucky stars to have her as a friend.  To learn more about Heather, check out her blog:  Heather's Hen House.

Baroque, Baroque!

My good friend, Heather, sent me some beautiful cards made with the Baroque Motifs stamp set.  The best thing about this stamp set is that even the simplest cards look elegant.  Here's the first card she made:

Elegant Baroque

Baroque Motifs is one of my favorite stamp sets.  It is so versatile!  Here's a card that I made using Baroque Motifs, Brushed Gold & Always Artichoke Card Stock, Gold Embossing Powder & Ribbon.

Baroque Motifs

This is a stamp set that I never get bored using.  I've used it to make party invitations, sympathy cards, birthday cards and a wedding album.  It is so easy to use and very versatile!
