More Medallions!

 

I used the multi-color technique with this card. Peach Parfait, Pear Pizazz and Rich Razzleberry inks on the Medallion stamp make a great focal point. The sentiment is from the level 2 hostess set in the Occasions mini catalog called Something to Celebrate. I cut out the sentiment with the Build-a-Blossom punch. A glimmer brad is in the center.

This is another example of the multi-color stamp technique. Can you tell I like it?

I added a center detail to this card. I used Pear Pizazz, Peach Parfait and Melon Mambo inks. Very small pearls are on the center detail. The sentiment is from the new Bring on the Cake stamp set in the Occasions mini.

I love this card! I used the Medallion stamp with three ink colors. First Marina Mist all over the stamp, then some Night of Navy on some areas, then silver Encore here and there. Then to really make it pop, I used the stamp-a-ma-jig to emboss the image.
I used You're a Gem stamp set and the 1" circle punch and the Designer Label punch. I added a rhinestone to the center and a couple on the sentiment.
Marina Mist satin ribbon tops it off.

Mad About Medallions

My new favorite stamp (this week) is the Medallion stamp from Stampin' Up! This large stamp has a bold graphic and can be used for all kinds of designs. The photos show the Medallion as the focal point, but it certainly can be used as a repeating pattern for a background. This would be great for homemade wrapping paper. Better yet, match your card with your wrapping paper. Totally stylish! This versatile stamp is a must have for the card maker and the paper crafter.

Love is in the air...

Hi All,
Love is in the air this week as my girls and I create fabulous Valentine's Day cards. The creativity was flowing as well as the conversation. We used many things from the Occasions mini catalog. Check out the photos of some of the gorgeous cards.
