Paper Sweeties September 2016 Release Party!

Hi, Friends!

Welcome to Paper Sweeties Release Party!  All *new* products are available today in the shop!  The new stamp sets and dies that I used for my card are Thankful(large sunflowers),  Sweet Cuts-Thankful, Planner Series: Fall Sentiments(small sunflowers),  Thanks(sentiment) and  Sweet Cuts- Thanks(thanks die cut).   I colored the sunflowers with copics and added Wink of Stella to them for a bit of shine.  The ribbon(Frosting) and sequins(Gold) are from Paper Sweeties, also.  

There are several wonderful sentiments to the new stamp set Thanks, so I'd like to share how I stamped the inside of the card...



This card and the second card on my post yesterday was made for my friend, Kathy, to give to a couple of her friends.  I have to admit I love how this card turned out and it's my favorite card made for the September release!:-)

Please follow the list below to see what my teammies came up with...have fun!

Hi Friends!

Welcome to Paper Sweeties September Release Sneak Peeks!  Debbie has designed wonderful *new* stamp sets/dies this month! Thankful(new), which is the stamp set with the large pumpkin and sentiment was used to make  a lovely table decoration.  The pumpkin was die cut using Sweet Cuts-Thankful.  Sweet Cuts-Sweet Borders was used to make the scalloped table cloth.The sunflowers surrounding the pumpkin are from the Planner Series: Fall Sentiments to be released and available to purchase tomorrow! These sets are great for making fall projects!   

I have another card to share with you!  A two for one day for I just love these sentiment stamps!  They are perfect for thank you or Thanksgiving cards...so fun!  And, here is my next card...


I used the gratitude sentiment for the background.  I stamped it below the lovely sunflower, too!  The sunflower and sentiment is from the same new stamp set Thankful.  The sunflower was colored with copics and die cut using the coordinating die Sweet Cuts-Thankful.  Wink of Stella was applied to the flower and pretty gold sequins to finish the card.

Please hop along to see what my teammates have created!

Happy Birthday!


Hi, Friends!

Hope you had a wonderful Labor Day weekend!  We had a very busy one here with a wedding celebration on Saturday!  On Sunday, we saw the play...Wicked...so fun!

My mother-in-law's birthday is on Saturday, so I made her this card...


Many gorgeous flowers in the inspiration photo!  I was very inspired to get out some flower stamps and start stamping away!   Just a simple card, but the flowers do take center stage.  I'm entering this card over at City Crafter!


I'd like to share with you some photos of my nephew's wedding!  It was such a glorious day to have a wedding!  And, so pretty in Schedel Gardens.  Here are some photos....

Kristen and Matthew

Some of the wedding party with three darling
flower girls!

Mother of the groom, my sister, Lucretia. and
her husband, John.


We took a few photos of the garden before
the wedding.

My husband, Randy


Beautiful swan in the pond.



Gorgeous outdoor reception at Kristen's
parent's house with French country theme.

Father of the groom, Steve, and his wife, Karen.

My sister with her two sons...Jason and Matthew.  They
are both tall handsome guys!:-)


All my beautiful sisters...Christina, Cecilia, me, Lucretia and Donna.


Did we have fun??  Oh, yesss...lol!



Thanks so much for viewing my card and photos of Matthew's and Kristen's wedding celebration!

Take care!

Hugs,
Maria
