Summer Rose Swap with Fun Stampers Journey

*Update*
I'm excited to say I have a feature back that can link you directly to my website if you click on any of the products I have listed below. I will also have the colors I use on my project showing in one place...A color builder. Yes, I'm SO excited to have these features again!!!

Yesterday was quite the day for me and so much fun!  I'm in Vegas for Fun Stampers Journey LEAD WITH HEART Leadership Conference. I have to say I NEVER thought I'd be in Vegas!  I guess having a conference was the way to get me here! lol 
Wednesday evening after registration and make and take prep we started with some swaps with the Amazing Bloomers group that is under Deb Valder.  Lots of great cards and 3-D swaps for sure!  I'll be posting some of them in the next week or so.  Right now I'd like to share my swap card with you.  I love how it turned out!  I'm always a little nervous about a swap, but then I get something done and it's either right or I'm starting over...and this one was right.

I took a couple pics of a bunch of the cards.  Not really sure how many I made, but I think it was around 44.

Just a straight shot of the card.  The silver ink is hard to get a good picture of let me tell you!

Whip Cream

Sweet Berry

And silver! :)

Just another pics of some of the cards.  They weren't too difficult to make, just time consuming because there were so many.  I pretty much made them the same way I explained in my previous post.  Yes, there's a bit of fussy cutting, but when you're making one or two cards it doesn't take much time at all!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Summer Rose Birthday ~ A Fun Stampers Journey Card

Hi Everyone!  I have a pretty clean and simple card to share with  you again today that is inspired by Try Stampin' or Not on Tuesday's sketch challenge #304.  I already had this stamp set and the two inks that I used on this card sitting on the table since I've been working on swaps for Leadership with Fun Stampers Journey!  Yes, that's a bit of a hint as to what my swap card will look like.  It's definitely not this one, but it shares the same sets and colors. And now I can't wait to learn what Fun Stampers Journey has to share with all of us at Leadership which is literally right around the corner!

This is today's sketch and the optional theme is "Old and New".  Almost everything on my card is new since I just made the switch to Fun Stampers Journey not too long ago! :)  The one thing that is old is the vellum paper that I used as the banner.  I have just a few sheets of it left and wanted to keep the look light so that's why I added it as the banner.

Make sure you check out all of the other fun cards HERE made using this sketch and play along if you get the chance.  We'd love to see what you create. :)

To create this card I used Journey Silver ink pad to stamp the background with the ATS stamp Postage Stamps.  I cut out a strip of  vellum paper and snipped the bottom to make a banner.  Then I stamped the rose base from the set Summer Rose using Sweet Berry.  I stamped it once on scrap paper, then onto my Whip Cream card stock to lighten the color.  Then I stamped the two other pieces I needed to complete the rose on top of the base I just stamped.  I did the same with the leaves and then fussy cut them all out.  I sponged around the edges of the flower lightly too.  It just finishes the rose off.  I popped the rose  with Journey Foam Squares and tucked the leaves underneath and attached them with glue dots.  To finish the card off I stamped Happy Birthday using the set Sentimental Prints and added three pearls.  Nice and easy! :)

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
