Plumeria for Mother - Kitchen Sink Stamps
With Mother's Day just around the corner on May 8, I am sharing this card created for my mother as my Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design. I often mix lots of stamps together to create my KSS cards, but this design uses on two sets: Plumeria and Bold Holiday Greetings.
The background was blended with Squeezed Lemonade and Dried Marigold Distress Oxide by Ranger. I then splattered it with water, dried it, and then splattered it again with liquid gold.
This card has been entered in the following challenges this week:
Sunday Stamps - SSC281 - Sweet Pastels
Alphabet Challenge Blog - B is for Blooms
Cut It Up! Challenge Blog p #250 - April Showers Bring May Flowers
As You Like It Challenge - Favorite: Floral or Cute. I love florals! Flowers are my "thing!"
Thank you, As You Like It!

Bunny Basket - Kitchen Sink Stamps
This week's Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design features more of the gorgeous hydrangeas that I love so much! I used them on this card to fill this fun Easter basket along with a bunny and pretty bow!
The KSS stamp sets used to create this Easter card are Hydrangea, Honey Bunny, Basket, All Year Grapevine Wreath, Bold Holiday Greetings, and Coffee Mate Greetings.
All the images were stamped on the SVG cut files that coordinate with these sets. I then arranged the pieces and glued them together before popping them up on dimensionals over the embossed background panel. The embossing folder is from Crafter's Companion.

CCEE2213 - No Housework Day
Our April CCEE Challenge hostess, Liz Williams has asked the CCEE Stampers to celebrate “NO HOUSEWORK DAY” by spending the day in our stamp rooms designing a “Free for All” card with the theme of our choice. She said, "Have fun," and I sure did.
This card is going to a friend (not naming any names here) to give him a chuckle! This card shows him at his favorite place taking part in his favorite sport! This guy is from Art Impressions. I added a die cut beer bottle in his hand. The hilarious sentiment is from Picket Fence Studios.
Let's see what the rest of the crew chose to create this week:

Hydrangea Easter Cross - Kitchen Sink Stamps
For my Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design today, I am featuring an Easter card which uses images from KSS' Hydrangea and sentiments from Bold Holiday Greetings and Coffee Mate Greetings. I cut the hydrangeas out using the SVG cut files that match the set and glued them over the cross. The background was created with the SVG cut stencil Big Burst. The cross was cut using Cricut Design Space.
