Celebrate Your Day

Good Friday Everyone!

Hope you all are having a Fabulous Friday!  I know I am.  I have a new card to share with you today.

This card is showcasing a sentiment named "New Day (E770)".  I wanted to make this a very simple card so I picked this sweet image of two kids having fun.

The blue paper on top is actually a part of this paper.  I cut it out because the paper was a bit too big then added it to the top.  Then I stamped the sentiment straight onto the paper.  After that I just added a card base and a separator.  

That's it.  Real simple isn't it.  Now don't forget to join in this month's challenge "April Showers Bring May Flowers".  You could win this cute little stinker.

Hope you all have an amazing day!

Hugs,

Robin

Dawn Celebration

    After a month of Halloween cards I am ready for something a little different so today I thought I would bring you a shabby chic sentiment card.  The New Day sentiment is wonderful for Thanksgiving or anytime of the year.

     Since I didn't have lots of detail in my stamp I used an extra bit of color and patterns in my design papers as well as lots of layers.

     Here is a close up of the lovely New Day sentiment stamped in aqua to match the design paper.

     Blessings to all of you on this day and everyday until I meet with you again.

New Day

Happy Friday and welcome to the Great Impressions Blog. Friday's seem to roll around faster and faster each week (lol)!! But I guess that just brings the week-end faster.

It's Mary Marsh here and Friday is my day to post on the blog. For today's card, I used the Great Impressions Stamp - "new day"- E770. I love how you can take a sentiment stamp frame it in a fancy die-cut add some designer paper to a great layout and you have a great card.

My background designer paper is from the DCWV "harvest gathering stack" collection.

The larger rectangle panel is striped designer paper from Stampin-Up's-chocolate chip collection.

For my smaller rectangle panel, I used the pumpkin harvest Cuttlebug embossing folder in pumpkin. My oval is cut in vanilla from the Spellbinders floral oval die. I stamped in choc chip ink.
To finish my card and the sketch I die cut a pennant flag in choc chip using a Spellbinders die.

That's it for me for today.  Hope you have some fun plans for the week-end.

New Day Blessings

Happy Friday and thanks for taking the time to visit the Great Impressions Blog. I hope you have liked all the samples we have posted this week with the new releases. I have another one to show you today.

My card is using 2 new stamps. The sentiment is "new day" - E770. Don't you just love the wording? I placed it inside the "sunflower tag" - H231. I thinks this is a perfect card for Thanksgiving. Also one that would be easy to make 4 or 5 quickly.

Here are some card details: My card base is chocolate chip and then I layered peach parfait and some patterned paper from Basic Grey's "Indian Summer " collection.

I used cajun craze ink on the sunflower tag & sentiment  and used a peach parfait marker for the flowers.

On the rectangle panel, I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder and then added a flag pennant. This was cut from a Spellbinders die. To complete the card I punched 3 small circles from cajun craze cardstock.

That's it for me for today. Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win some goodies. Stop by my blog as well. The link is on the sidebar. Just click my picture.
