Congratulations Robyn and Jeff!

I was asked to prepare two cards with flower themes for a friends bridal shower last weekend. We needed ones we could do most of the preparations ahead of time so ladies could slap them together quickly as although the bride loves scrapbooking and cardmaking it was not the focus of the shower. The shower had a garden theme and the decorations were very pretty in red like roses and a dark purple. I had fun making up the kits for these sweet and simple cards that could be put together and stamped by beginners and loved by novices as well. The great thing was I was able to bring minimum supplies and not worry about sales and just enjoy the company of the other women and look forward to stamping with them. Several of them had experience and were past customers. I love the colours and am pleased with how the cards turned out.

I wanted to create something not at all feminine but it didn't turn out as particularily masculine. I only had scraps of River Rock and was lacking in matching ribbon as well so it was a bit more challenging than I anticipated. I planned to use a the inks that matched and a stamp set I really like and have been hanging on to since Spring 2008 {pictured below} but once I got my Big Shot and my Stars #2 Die out all the plans changed. This set was offered with a 5"x5" little album and papers and cardstock stickers in Pumkin and Olive and Bashful Blue which I also still have a few pieces left from now that I think about it. I feel some more inspiration coming on. I enjoyed the kit so much because I made a lovely little album for my elderly cousin Eda with a collection of photos from her yearly family picnics. I put the finishing touches on it in the car on the way there
