Poppy Moments

 Hi Everyone--hope you've had a good weekend.  We still have high humidity and rumbling skies here in Henderson!  Truly a monsoon season for us and our first.  Positive---temps only in the 90's, not 100's; Negative---my hair curls :)

Last week, I co-taught my monthly class at the community center here where I live.  We had 16 stampers and were packed.  The card I did I "case'd" from a card one of our team members, Ann Huebner-Stampin' Annies.  She designed it last year, so I had to improvise a bit.  The biggest "oh no" was the vellum paper.  Last catalog, we had colored vellum paper (I needed it in yellow), so like a good Marine, I had to adapt.  Did know you can add color to Vellum paper?  Well, you can and simply, too.  Just choose the color you want (So Saffron for me) and grab you Blending Brush.  Start rubbing the color in circles and there it is---all colored.  Needs to dry a bit.  I didn't have the exact embossing folder or ribbon (her's were retired), but I made it work.  Use your Tombow Glue for flowers, leaves, and ribbon. You may end up with sticky fingers, but adhesive will show through the vellum.  Hope you will give this a try.  Let me know what you think---

Supplies Used:  Peaceful Moments Stamps; Poppy Moments Dies, Scalloped Contours Dies; Gingham Embossing Folder; So Saffron, Basic White, Crumb Cake, Vellum Cardstock; Crumb Cake Ink; Early Espresso Trim; Tombow Glue, Mini Dimensionals, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Have a wonderful week----
