Graduation Card Featuring Taylored Expressions Argyle Stamp, Stencil and Dies

Of course, 'tis the season for graduations.  My kids are now out of college and so the number of kids I know is dwindling, but there are a few of these young people that I get the pleasure of celebrating.  This card was made for a friend's son who graduated from the same high school as my kids.  A high school themed color scheme seemed perfect and using the Taylored Expressions Argyle Stamp, Stencil and Dies was a great combination.  The sentiment is a combination of Papertrey Ink Congratulations mini-stamp and die and The Greetery Alphabuds dies.  

Simple and effective!

Congratulations to the grad and Happy Fourth of July!

Father's Day Cards Featuring Taylored Expressions Argyle Stamp, Stencil and Dies

I just loved the Taylored Expressions release last month for Father's Day and I picked up the Taylored Expressions Argyle Stamp, Stencil and Dies.  I couldn't resist a set of cards made with masculine colors and utilizing my The Greetery AlphaBuds dies.  I kept the design simple and utilized a bit of vellum, the perfect offset for the busy background which keeps the argyle front and center.

 So fun!  I'm ready for Father's Day!

Christ is Risen! A Notecard Set

With all the turmoil and change in the world today, I can honestly admit that this Lent season wasn't as fully focused as previous years and/or should be.  I did get a chance to use my new-to-me The Greetery Caring Cross stamp and die set.  This set comes with a stencil for coloring the die cut cross after stamp layering the palm leaves with delicate blooms.  I think this set is so beautiful and I knew I wanted to combing it with my Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words Faith stamp set.

The palm leaves are die cut using The Greetery and the Botanicuts Palm dies.

Sending wishes for your own Easter preparations.
