In April, I was invited to teach a workshop at Taylored Expressions. The staff there is amazing and has a passion for cardmaking. The store is just beautiful and full of color.
This was one of the cards that we made in the workshop. The Graphic Greetings Birthday stamp is a block of sentiments. I did a masking technique for the different colors. I will post the other cards later in the month. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the video.

Oh, Hello with Ilina
Hi stampers!
Welcome to another Team Tuesday. Ilina here today with a card using the just released Concord and 9th new Oh Hello Turnaobut set that is made to work with the Original MISTI.
For my card I am using some Neenah white 80lb card stock and I stamped the image 3 times : A Muse Margarita pigment ink, then Mermaid pigment ink and the last one is using Versafine Onyx Black ink pad.
Next I stamped the sentiment on black card stock using Versamark ink and embossed in white and cut it with the just released Globe die set.
Next I adhered the panel onto black card base, adhered the sentiment and added some black Nuvo Crystal drops
Watch the video below, to see how this card came to be.

Happy Hello!!
Hello friends! Giovana here sharing a floral card with a Happy sentiment. This card has a story, first I messed up my own calendar and instead of write the 9th I wrote the 29th, oops!, so I am few days later, yes I should call this post "When Team Tuesday meets Forgot Friday" LOL. Then, I stamped the images the way I wanted them, colored them and the background didn't turn out the way I wanted it, so I cut out all the flowers and made a new card.
Here are the details:
Finally I added pearls and silver thread and the card was finished, this is a 6" x 6" card and I really love how turned out.
Hope you like it!
Have a fantastic day!
Here are the details:
- Stamp your images, this is how my card started ;) Here I am using Peony Scrolls by Altenew.
- Color the image, of course at this point I realized I didn't like how the background turned out, so I decided to fussy cut all the images.
- After cutting the images, I die-cut 3x "Happy" from "Happy Card Frame Dies" and stamped "Hello" from "Happy Words" set, these are from Concord & 9th. I used my MISTI to keep my panel in place and put all the pieces where I wanted them.
Finally I added pearls and silver thread and the card was finished, this is a 6" x 6" card and I really love how turned out.
Hope you like it!
Have a fantastic day!

I Love My Mama
If you haven't noticed my mom has a love for flowers and I love to make flower cards for her. This Mother's Day she received an early gift. Early, as in end of March. I called my mom one day and said that I was sending a package and that she needed to be home between 7 and 8pm. My mom took that to be 7 am to 8pm and spent all day at home waiting. Raise your hand if your mom misunderstands you.
I used my miles to buy my sister an airline ticket. We met up at O'Hare Airport. One of my friends, Michelle, pick us up at the airport. I had Michelle knock on the door. My mom recognized her and asked her in. Once we saw her enter, my sister and I jumped out of the car and let ourselves in.
We had a good time just having a girls weekend. We showered her with gifts. My sister and I are very protective since my father passed away. So this week I will send her this card.
I used Concord & 9th You Are Here stamp set. I stamped it with Distress Ink Antique Linen so that I could do no-line watercolor technique. For watercolors, I used the Mijello Mission Gold. I experimented and practiced this a couple of times. The sentiment is from Altenew Penned Rose.
Please be warned that the video is a little long. You can fast forward to the 14 minute mark if you get bored.
Thanks for stopping by today and have a great day!
