Paint the Town with Market Street Stamps!

Hi Market Street Stamps fans!  Today I am sharing my card for the latest Paint the Town color challenge hosted by Market Street Stamps!

Look at these gorgeous colors.......my favorite color combo EVER!  I may have mentioned it a time or too!

My card design is fairly CAS and again uses the cake image from Celebrate Cake.  I love this set as it makes awesome Congratulations cards for weddings.  I have had some requests for more Wedding cards at work so this will be in my next batch to sell.

Can you see all the texture on the base card?  It is my most loved PTI impression plate.....the Canvas and Linen IP.  I wish PTI would come out with another one like this but a different pattern.  This pattern can be used for ANY card! 

All of us at Market Street Stamps would LOVE to see you Paint the Town with us.  So, get out those stamps and let's see some color!  Remember there is a prize up for grabs!  Thanks for stopping by today!

So, it's been a couple of days and I haven't used my Distress Inks....hehe. I missed them! So I had to break them out again for one of Market Street Stamps fabulous background stamps: Vintage Wallpaper. First embossing with white embossing powder, then sponging Fired Brick and Weathered Wood Distress Inks over the image. Makes for a great any occasion card! I chose a Congratulations sentiment from the set: Celebrate Cake.

Now, I can't spill the beans on the rest of the FUN activities going on starting TOMORROW so you'll just have to come check out the Market Street Stamps Blog for details on what's to come!  See ya later!

Birthday Flowers.......

**Please click HERE for my Lil' Inker Designs Release Day #5 post!!!

Hi everyone!  It's my post day over at Market Street Stamps and I'm here today with a fun, bright Birthday card using the flowers from the Comforting Florals stamp set.  I love to use a stamp set for things other than what it was made for.  This set is one of those!

Here the newest background, Cane, was embossed with clear embossing powder for a little added shine on the pink cardstock.  Since Comforting Florals is a sympathy set, I needed to search for a sentiment and I found it in the Celebrate Cake stamp set!!  You can also see a peek of another sentiment from Celebrate Cake on the inside.

My flowers were colored in with Copic RV25/R59 and the vase with BG10/BG13.

Thanks for stopping and have a great start to the weekend!
