A new stamp set and Wetlands!

I've had a busy day today.  My garden club met for lunch and we went over the activities for our Girl Scout Gardening Event we hold every year, a quick trip to the chiropractor this morning and some time making lists and organizing a hospitality suite I'm in charge of on Saturday.  In case you were wondering, my husband ate ALL of those very dry chicken breasts from Monday - gross!  I have a workshop tonight so I'm getting in a quick post.

We have a new photopolymer stamp set I wanted to share today - Better Than E-Mail.  I thought this was super cute and have it on my must have list.

Better Than E-Mail Photopolymer Stamp Set 140463 Price: $15.95 This great new Angel Policy set is just what you need to help you in your business. Recommended clear block sizes are A, B, D, G (not included in the set). Our photopolymer stamps offer a versatile all-clear stamping option. You'll find that our photopolymer is top-quality and gives a perfectly stamped image every time. The stamps stick amazingly well to our clear blocks and are easy to place just where you want them. And best of all, you get to enjoy tons of images for a great price! Set Quantity: 12

The project I wanted to share today is from CrEW Stamper Rita Daugherty.  It uses the Wetlands stamp set.  

Rita used a Vanilla and Black color scheme with a little Crushed Curry sponging around the goose.  The DSP on the top part of the card is retired from last year, but wouldn't this be pretty with the feather print DSP in the Back to Black DSP pack with a black and white color scheme.  Sue a quick, simple and beautiful card.  

Supplies used:

Wetlands Stamp set

Black StazOn ink, Crushed Curry ink

retired DSP, Very Vanilla and Basic Black card stock

Circle Collection Framelits Dies

I have a couple more Work of Art samples to share with you today.  This first one was a birthday card from CrEW Stamper Laura Diamond.

Laura used different stamps from the set to make a sunset beach scene - love it!  The birds are from the Wetlands stamp set.  Colors used were:  Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.

This next card shows another type of tropical scene:

I used a post it note to mask off the tree before stamping the water.  The bottom layer of water was stamped in full strength Lost Lagoon ink, then restamped without re-inking.  The coconuts were stamped on the tree, then re-stamped on scrap card stock and punched with the 1/2" Circle Punch and popped up on the card.  Cute!!  Colors used:  Lost Lagoon, Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz, Baked Brown Sugar.

Today's card is from CrEW stamper Mary Harvey.  She used the new Wetlands stamp set to create a Christmas card.  

The Canadian Goose is one of my favorite images from this set.  

You can see from this close up that the goose was stamped twice, and the second one was trimmed and popped up for more dimension.  She also stamped the wheat twice without re-inking to add depth.  I also love that she heat embossed one of our Paper Doilies with Silver to add a touch of elegance.
