dear friend

I was playing around with the P.S. You’re the Best stamp set. I just love the typewriter. I started by adhering a panel of the Share What You Love DSP to a Whisper White card base. I set this inside a folded piece of vellum card stock to soften the DSP some.

I colored this cute little typewrite with Mint Macron Stampin’ Blends. Seriously, these markers are the BEST! It is so easy to get great shading and depth. I added a Petal Pink watercolor wash on the “paper”. Once it was completely dry, I stamped the sentiment. I popped this up with dimensionals on a piece of Wood Textures DSP that I had punched notches out of with my 1/2″ circle punch and wrapped with Linen Thread. I finished up with three of the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

This makes me think of an author working away at a quaint little cottage with a wonderful flower garden. Like maybe where L.M. Montgomery might have written Anne of Green Gables. Yeah, I like that.

That’s a wrap for today. Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to come back and join me again as I put a spotlight on creativity!

Hello, everyone! Quick post today as I am deep in the chaos of moving back into my craft studio! There are still finishing details to wrap up (like trim and installing Brett’s desk), but my space is ready for occupancy! I’m excited to share it with you once it is presentable. Right now, I need to figure out where everything is going.

Today’s card features the stamp set P.S You’re the Best. I am really drawn to typewriters. They invoke a nostalgic feeling. I’d love to get one for display some day.

I love the combo of Wood Textures DS, Soft Sea Foam and a pop of Flirty Flamingo. The subtlety of the Soft Sea Foam, DSP and Linen Thread really let the tiny bits of Flirty Flamingo grab you.

Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
