Today the DT is showcasing stamp sets “The Good Life” & “Assorted Greetings”

This fun card was created with the new Gina K set “The Good Life” and what a fun set it is to use…filled with so many great images to create scenes.  My hubby & I are “RV dreamers”…meaning we hope to get an RV once kids are in college and start traveling around when we can.  We go to all the RV shows and know what we want but we know at this point in our lives we have NO TIME to use it LOL so we keep dreaming until that day comes!  So I HAD to use this fun RV camper image for my card and these papers from Authentique's "Carefree" totally inspired the color theme and feel (luv it when paper does that for me).  The foliage is a Spellbinders die that I cut out of dk cream cs and then inked up for a fall-like feel and added Stickles for sparkle.  The sentiment I stamped onto the woodgrain paper and then tied it on with twine for a rustic feeling.

Remember all these stamp sets come in a choice of either clear stamps or rubber!!!!

I had to paper-piece the image a bit (the center panel and those curtains for fun) since it brings more of a whimsical feel to it all!  I added stickles to the windows and crystal lacquer to the wheels.  The image was colored with Copics: R08,R05,R02/E44 thru E40.

The second card uses TWO of the newest sets “Assorted Greetings” (which is the Free with 3 set---buy any 3 sets and get this one for free) and “Pretty Patterns”.  I decided to go a bit CAS and graphic with this one for fun!  I stamped the border pattern at the bottom of the card and on the bottom of the sentiment circle.  I just made a simple mat with some pattern papers and then a belly-band to pull it all together.

That’s it for me today, see you back here on Friday!  Make sure to hop along to see the designers fab projects & leave comments for a chance to WIN!!
