I am also in the process of listing all of my newly retired items on my web-site: Debbis' Design Retired Store  Some are up and I hope to have the rest listed by Saturday morning.

Father's Day Ship

This set is on my wish list but has not made it on to my order yet.  I wanted to use it for some Father Day cards and I had it in MDS so I printed it out on some Very Vanilla Card stock and went from there.

Pastel Spring

This  is my interpretation of today's sketch challenge.  I wanted to use soft, spring colors and of course the new In Colors.  I was also in the mood for butterflies.  I hope the group of butterflies work ok for the top box on the sketch....It was s fun card to make and fell in place in a matter of 5 minutes. Easy and quick!

Sympathy

I try to keep sympathy cards on hand but as I have said before I hate to make them too dark and dreary so I thought the butterfly would add a nice smile factor.

Wedding Heart Ring

I wanted to do a card with layers of hearts.  I lined up the Framelits and cut the card front.  I then embossed the floral across the front  and pulled out every other heart.  The front and the hearts are popped up on dimensionals.  This card is a combo of old and new.The Tiny Tags is retiring the end of the month but the Label Love set and the clay flowers are in the new catalog. I am in love with the clay flowers (and buttons).  They are flexible and easy to make how you want them.  They can be colored or glittered (like I did here)  You will see them a lot on up-coming cards!

Graduation Flowers

Lots and lots of graduations this year.  I try to make a few of the same card because they go various places and I keep one for myself to use.  Not all of this card has the flower.  I messed up and punched the sentiment off to the side and I had to put something there to even things off. lol  Since I had too much fun making the flowers I grabbed one off of my shelf and put it in place with some leaves.  I dyed the clay prior to putting in the mold with some re-inker.  I keep the extra colored clay in snack sized ziplock bags with the color written on the baggie.  I am sure someone will come up with a great way to organize the colored clay but so far that works for me.

Sparkly Wedding

So I have had plenty of time to be thinking of some designs while reco-oping from this surgery.  The wedding season is coming up fast. I think we have 5 to attend this summer, including our son's.  I love all of the shine and sparkle in this card!  I used the new Smoky Slate ink and I think it goes great with the silver embossing and the silver glimmer paper!

Owl Banner Birthday

Bright and colorful was what I was going for with this card.  Since it was going to be a hand delivered card I wanted to use an embellishment that I do not usually use when i mail a card so I went crazy with the buttons.  My designer paper is retired as I was also trying to use up some of my scraps.  The sentiment was popped up with dimensionals.

Manly Birthday

I have toyed with this set for quite some time.  I gave my husband and children a Christmas wish list with it on it.  I let them order what they wanted within a budget.  It was hard not to look on line or when it arrived.  The kids opened it, gave me the card stock I needed to finish the Christmas cards and off to wrap the rest.  I was very happy with what they bought me and very pleased to finally get this set.

I had been putting getting this set off for a while, but I was in dire need of something that I could do little boy cards with that were quicker than a punch art card. This one seemed to fit that void I had in my stamp collection. The Pool Party will be expiring at the end of the month so if you want it, you better order it now! This set is on the retiring list so get it now while it is still available!

Sketch Challenge Sneak Peak

My pre-order from the new catalog came in yesterday. One of the great perks of being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!!  So being that I am going in for surgery tomorrow and I do not know when I will have the opportunity to stamp for a while I had to get up early this morning and play with my new toys. I am always in need of manly cards and I though this new set would cover that basis.  The lighter brown is one of the new In Colors and it is called Baked Brown Sugar. You know I love, love, love punches and just had to get a couple of the new ones.  Off to take my kids to band and go through my new catalog once again and work on my ever growing wish list.
