Canadian Birthday - KSS

Today's Let's Make a Scene Design sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps is going in the mail to a friend who just returned from a Canadian vacation. Hope it brings back wonderful memories of that fabulous trip! It's still a hundred degrees here in Texas!!

To create this design I started with the Norway Pines across the bottom of the card and then added the lake working my way up from there.

The die cut Happy Birthday sentiment is by Darice.

The following Kitchen Sink Stamp sets were used to create this tall card which measures 3.75 inches by 9.25 inches.

Scenes from Junkie Fest and Yellow Daisies - KSS

Being the second Monday of July, this is one of the days that I usually post a Let's Make a Scene design sponsored by Kitchen Sink Stamps. Well, today I am sharing a couple of scenes that I created for Maria to share at Junkie Fest that mix in some of the new sets she used there that have now been released for all to enjoy.

These are the KSS sets I used to create the card above with the July releases listed first:

Mallard Ducks Multi Step Clear Stamps

Cattails Multi Step Clear Stamps

  

Isle of Big Bay Lake Multi Step Clear Stamps

Minnesota Norway Pine Tree Multi Step Clear Stamps

Shoreline Rocks

And I paired these with images from the KSS June Release as well as older sets:

Birch Bark Canoe Multi Step Clear Stamps along with grasses from Honey Bunny Multi Step Clear Stamps and Birch Trees Multi Step Clear Stamps

This second card uses the following sets from the new July release:

Minnesota Norway Pine Tree Multi Step Clear Stamps and Isle of Big Bay Lake Multi Step Clear Stamps shown above.

I paired these with images from Cabin by the Lake Multi Step Clear Stamps, Fishing 4 Bass Multi Step Clear Stamps, Tree Friends Multi Step Clear Stamps and grass from Honey Bunny Multi Step Clear Stamps.

I certainly hope the participants at Junkie Fest enjoyed these cards as much as I enjoyed creating them! My heart just seems to belong to masculine scenes!! They are my absolute favorite type of card to create.

Also released this month is Fresh as a Daisy Multi Step Clear Stamps. The card below was created for the Thank You, Thank You Very Much Challenge hosted by my blogging friend, Jeanette Cloyd, on Virtual Stamp Night over at Splitcoaststampers. The sentiment is from Make a Big Statement Clear Stamps by KSS.

The color recipe I am sharing today is for stamping the daisies in yellow.
