Sunday's One Stop, Blog Hop

Hello Samping Friends,

Back today with a new Sunday's One Stop, Blog Hop.  I hope you enjoy the cards and designers that I have chosen for your inspiration today.  I love seeing the vast amount of creative work that paper crafters produce.  It's just amazing how talented and how generous these folks are.  

Blessings For Your Week,

One Stop, Blog Hop!

Hello Stamping Friends,

Here are my picks for this week's One Stop, Blog Hop.  I hope you find as much inspiration and beauty in these artist's cards as I have.  Goodness, I've had a very hard time choosing my favorites!  

My life has been just crazy enough to keep me out of my stamp room for quite a while.  I did prepare and hold a stamp camp this past weekend, but I haven't had time to just stamp for pure pleasure.  

Hoping to carve out a little time for that later this week.  I'll see you then.  

Blessings!

Oh, by the way, can you tell I was in a bit of a blue mood?  :-)

Friend Friday!

Hello Stamping Friends,

     Well, today begins a new feature on the Quick And Easy stamping blog.  Friend Friday is here and each Friday, I will be posting a card from a stamping friend  ;)  So, last weekend one of my friends who attended stamp camp, altered one of the cards and made it into this darling anniversary card.   The card base was created using a piece of Lost Lagoon cut at 10.5 x 5.5, and scored at 8.5, 4.25, and perforated at 2 inches using the perforating blade on the Stampin' Trimmer.  Then, I punched the top of the 2" piece using the Scallop Tag Topper Punch.  I learned this card technique from Glenda Calkin's website.  Also, just a little tip:  If you need a accent piece of glimmer paper, like we used for the sun, just take a marker and color the glimmer paper.  There you have your perfectly coordinated accent piece.  ;) Whatever you create this weekend, have a fun time!  

blessings,

Venetian Butterflies

Hello Stampers!

Today's card was inspired by Mary Fish over at Stampin' Pretty.  My card is a direct CASE of hers except that my color choices are from the Venetian Romance designer series paper pack.  I liked her idea and thought her card

was so pretty.  Hope you enjoy it too and spend some time stamping today!

blessings,

barb
