Vintage Vogue Takes

My Sassy 6 ladies always challenge my thinking.  Thanks, gals!  Last week we gathered with the Vintage Vogue set and various papers/colors and accessories and produced some cards from sketches.  I love doing this because it's a lot of fun to see what people come up with.  This was one of mine.  I stamped a half sheet of Whisper White paper with the flowers and leaves and then cut it down to make two cards.  This one is my own layout, the second is from the sketch/sample we used.  Enjoy them!

Ink : Perfect Plum, Pale Plum, Old Olive
Paper: Perfect Plum, Pale Plum, Old Olive, Whisper White

This is the one I copied from our sample layout.  I used softer flowers and less ribbon (I actually used up a roll!  Woohoo!)  Color scheme is the same.  The bling is the same.  The accessories are slightly different.

Just another Manic Monday

With a "Thank You" attached!  Many thanks to the ladies who made this weekend's Mystery Hostess Workshop so much fun.  Here's a thank you card in plum, saffron, pink and moss.  I used the Vintage Vogue set again.  Got my color scheme from the Color Coach.  An interesting pairing.

One More Vintage Vogue

Here's another one with Vintage Vogue. I took the color scheme from the Designer Series Papers Nouveau Chic: Sage Shadow, Basic Grey and Apricot Appeal. The "Thank You" comes from the set Fresh Cuts. I thought the font went well with the Vintage look. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

More Vintage Vogue

The more I use this set, the more I like the flowers. They cut out or punch out easily and have a nice subtle edge to them. I also really like the new Beautiful Wings Embosslits die. The butterflies are really interesting. (Yes, Cindy W., butterflies...just for you!) The frame is the Sizzix Bigz Scallop Oval Frame die in Crushed Curry. The background paper is from Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series paper. As usual, I'm punch happy with the ovals and the Boho Blossom punches. Here's what I used:
Stamps: Vintage Vogue, Simply Said (yes, the sentiment was markered out of a bigger stamp!)
Ink: Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo
Paper: Crushed Curry, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo, Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper
Accessories: Beautiful Wings Stampin' Up! Embosslits Die, Sizzix Bigz Scallop Oval Frame, Sizzix Big Shot machine, Small, Large and Scallop Oval punches, Boho Blossoms punch, Button Latte (whisper white button), mini glue dots, dimensionals

Happy New Year!

Happy 2010. It's a new decade and my camera difficulties are fixed. Here's a new card using some of the new Stampin' Up! products. I've had some time to play, so hope you all enjoy this card. I'm really enjoying the Sizzix Big Shot machine. Great fun. I used the new Textured Impressions Folder "Polka Dots" for the background. Makes dry embossing really easy. Stamps are two new ones from the Occasions Mini Catalog. The flowers are from the set "Vintage Vogue" which I ordered in the new "Clear Mount" version to try them out. I'm very satisfied with the image quality of the stamps as well as the sturdiness of the Stampin' Up! Acryllic Blocks. Enjoy!
