Oh my goodness, I don’t know what to say, but there is an all star cast lined up to show you some stamping goodness today – what a way to start a Monday, right?!? It was so fabulous when my friend Michelle invited me to join her stars for a Stamper’s Dream Hop. Well she sent me some goodies to work with and in the package was one of the new LaBlanche stamps that is out on the market. People described them to me, but I just didn’t get it. What a pleasant surprise!! They are very different, but more on that later. First, let me tell you a little bit about my project then I’ll show you the unique stamp I worked with.
The inspiration for my card was cupcake wrappers. I have a set of white ones that look like filigree, so I pulled them out and used two of them on this card – one at the top and one at the bottom. This is another tall and narrow card and the tulips stamps fits perfectly on the vertical, cut from Spellbinders Grand Labels Four. Since I stamped on dark paper, I added just a hint of color with chalks. I distressed my cupcake wrappers with Vintage Photo Distress Ink then added some Prima Bling, a Scor-Tape Flower and these petals.
These stamps are quite unique, the packaging says they are made from silicone and they have a foam mount. When you flip them over and ink them, see how fine the details are! This one was a dream to stamp with! This one is inked up with Memento ink :-)
SUPPLIES I USED |
Stamps: Stampers Dream – LaBlanche Tulips
Paper: Bazzill
Ink: Memento Onyx Black. Vintage Photo Distress Ink

Someone mentioned hat pins that you make. Do you have a place where we can go to find the other amazing things you make?
Congratulations Marilyn!
Whilst I don’t buy from Etsy I would be more than happy to pay you an annual subscription. Your cards are a delight and an inspiration. I regularly buy craft magazines for ideas and what you provide knocks spots off any magazines I have read. I thoroughly enjoy your website so an annual subscription wouldn’t be a hardship so far as I am concerned.
Congratulations Marilyn enjoy Becca’s wonderful candy.
Love Sheila xx
Have fun Marilyn and allow yourself to be creative. :)

I love the Poppy card. But I notice that u use a lot of silk ribbon. Do you have an issue when you mail these cards? I’ve had friends tell me that the envelopes are all torn up when they receive their cards. please advise…
