Tranquil Typewriter

Retiring Banner.png

Today’s card features the retiring P.S. You’re the Best Stamp Set, Tranquil Textures DSP, Scattered Sequins Embossing Folder, and Tranquil Tide and Fresh Fig In Colors. I seriously love the typewriter stamp set and don’t think I will be selling it after it retires. I need it in my life! For this card, I stamped a few pieces and constructed my own typewriter with simple message. From there, I took the colors and layered some dsp plus an embossed piece of dsp onto my coordinating cardstock. I really love the color combination of Tranquil Tide and Fresh Fig. I will definitely miss these! Thankfully our new Pretty Peacock In Color is similar to Tranquil Tide (although more blue than green). And I still have Blackberry Bliss for a dark purple.

Don't Worry About the Rain

Today’s card features the retiring Friendly Conversation Stamp Set, Playful Backgrounds Stamp Set, and Tranquil Textures DSP. I knew I wanted to use this big sentiment with the Tranquil Textures DSP, but wasn’t sure where to go from there. After playing around, I settled on stamping a background piece and layering a piece of scrap DSP over it. Very nice compliment. From there, I stamped my sentiment, added some touches, and placed it on a piece of cardstock to create a nice layered piece. Very simple card with a lot of varying blues!

It's a Bee-utiful Day!

Today’s card features one of my favorite colors (and my favorite color retiring this year) Fresh Fig. I love the deep dark purple. This color started with Fresh Fig. From there, I found some DSP that featured a darker purple and then settled on a sentiment. The bees came to me after a search for something nature related.

Textured Typewriter

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using DSP from July's B3G1 Free DSP sale! A variety of paper packs are included. Check the sale out below.

For my card, I pulled out the fun papers from the Tranquil Textures DSP. I pulled the fun dotted paper to act as my base and then started adding layers. Such a simple card, but it really highlights the great patterns and coordinating of the paper packs. To finish out my card, I stamped a simple typewriter with a message.
