Peachy Keen Trio!

Posted on

This Peachy Keen Stamp Set was one I really had to sneak up on as I wasn’t too sure about it but it was cheaper to buy in the bundle along with the On Film Framelits Dies (WHICH I LOVE), and who doesn’t like a bargain, hence I have the stamp set.

With the assistance of the soon-to-retire 2012-2014 In-Colors, here’s what I came up with and remember the In-Color Dahlias will be retiring also!

Peachy Keen - Summer Friend - JIFGreen has NEVER really been my color but stamped with the Gorgeous Grunge Stamp Set then paired with the Early Espresso Cardstock, sponged with a little Gold Encore Ink, framed with a hint of Midnight Muse Cardstock it really does look smart.

Peachy Keen - Gumball Green Gold - JIFThis next card involves more, and then some, of my rainbow colors but in a style I’ve often admired but never attempted. This style does have a name which eludes me just at the moment but check out how effective it is. Especially when teamed with Gold Foil Paper!

Peachy Keen - Jagged Rainbows - JIFContact me today (250-632-7248) if you’d like to order any of these products for your own projects or to arrange hosting your own party celebrating the wonderful new Annual Catalog!

Oh, and have yourself an... Inkee Fiddling Day!

Tweaking Thanks!

Earlier in the week I had a few spare moments, I know weird huh, but I had put aside a couple of hours for a lunch out with friends which was postponed hence found myself with some glorious “unplanned” hours.

As I sat and pondered how blessed we are this Christmas it occurred to me that some Christmas Thank You Cards are a must. This is what I came up with.

Joyful Christmas Thankyou - Red White Silver Card - JIF

Enough I hear you shout of the embossed Joyful Christmas flower on the vellum but hey, I love it don’t you? Plus, look what I did with the combination of thankful and merry Expressions Thinlit Dies – I created thanks. There is no ‘S’ in any of the three words hence needed to create one.

Hmmm, that tested the old grey matter and after only one false start, discovered if the Silver Foil was placed upside-down onto the second ‘R’ in merry which was then turned upside-down once created, a ‘S’ is born. It does the job.

Joyful Christmas Thankyou - Red White Silver - JIFAnd who would have thought that a Raspberry Ripple In-Color Dahlias in the center of the flower would finish it of so well?
