Tarheel Stamper - Not So Seriously

Wow!  I cannot believe how long it has been since I last posted.  Life became very busy with a move and some other events.  LOL  So glad to be back.  I hope to stamp more often, but right now I do not have a dedicated stamping space.  My supplies are scattered around the house wherever they will fit. 
Two of my sons birthdays were last week so I needed cards.  I used the new Houndstooth Impressions Embossing Folder and the Stripes one.  I love those.  They make such a deep impression and add texture to your cards.  The colors are In Colors for this year. I used Island Indigo and Lucky Limeade.  Very pretty colors.  The stamp set is Not So Seriously.  We love dogs and have 2 large ones, and I am puppy sitting this week for my son and his wife.  Whew....puppies are a lot of work.  lol  Sure is sweet though.  Hope you have a great day!

Square cards give you a little more room to create with.  I made this for a Monday Mailer program I am in with a NC Demo Yahoo group.  Each Monday during the month we mail a card to a stampin' demo and receive one from another one.  It is a lot of fun looking forward to that card in the mailbox!  Our theme is retiring colors, so I used Barely Banana and Close to Cocoa on this one.  I used the 2 way glue pen and sprinkled Diamond Dust glitter on the butterfly.  Isn't she/he cute?  I included a photo of another I made similar to this one.  I wish I would have had the Bashful Blue satin ribbon to use on the 2nd card.  I stamped the circle image from Circle Circus in Versamark.  Then used the sponge daubers to dab Stampin' Pastels over the Versamark.  I love the soft look of it and I used a supply I rarely use.

Hope you enjoy this card and this day!
Happy Stampin'!
