"A Little Lace" Set of Notecards

I wanted to make some In-Color notecards, but I wanted them to be easy, and not involve a lot of coloring, so I decided just to do a quick little watercolor swish on the focal point image of the big flowers from the "A Little Lace" stamp set. I used the 2019-2021 In-Colors, and a little bit of patterned paper to help give it a bit of a romantic look.

Here are the cards:

These notecards made up just exactly like I was seeing them in my mind's-eye. I love the colors, and they are just perfect to send a "little note of hello". Everyone could use a little set of cards like this today, to send some love to our socially distant friends and family. Wouldn't you love to get some "love" in you mailbox today?

#keepstamping with Stampin' Up!

Stampin' Up! has had a challenge going on for several weeks now to help us all "keep stamping" during this pandemic/quarantine/social distancing thing. Since I have had to go back to work about 4 weeks ago, I don't have as much time to stamp as I would like, but I did do a little stamping yesterday when I needed to take a day off for some stuff that I needed to take care of. The theme for this week is:
            "Stamping Challenge #7: Make a project using something from the retired list 
(aka Last Chance Products list)."

I went through the "Last Chance Products List" (or the retiring list, as a lot of us demonstrators like to call it) and I pulled out all of my retiring stamp sets, punches, embossing folders, etc... and put them into a box to set aside for the time being. I decided that I wanted to make some cards using these retiring stamps and things, so that is what I did.

Here is one of the cards that I made:

All supplies are available from Stampin' Up! (while supplies last):
