New Stamp Release Day ~ Riley and Company Stamps!

Hi friends!

I have TWO posts each day to share with you

from TWO different stamp companies!

I hope you are able to scroll up - and down - and see both

Riley and Company Stamps and Prickley Pear Stamps ♥

It's new stamp release day at Riley and Company Stamps!

 I've been away from the blog but busy, busy, busy

 working on A LOT of cards behind the scenes :)

I can finally show you them in trickling blog posts in the next few days ~

woot, woot!

First up, I had some fun watercoloring this card using the Pineapple stamp,

added to this sunburst of blues and greens.

Such a sweet sentiment :)

I added a bit of twine behind the image and some green sequins to for a little pop.

 Here's some even more wonderful news!

Let's Travel!

 Hi friends!

It's time for another exciting challenge at The Ink Spot

and this week's theme is: Travel!

For my card today, I'm channeling my little guy who just left for

an 8 day Boy Scout adventure camp in Georgia :)

He's only 11, and it was a BIG STEP for us to let him go,

but he was going out of his mind with excitement for this trip!

Mommy needed to be a little brave, LOL :)

We've gotten word that he is having the time of his life,

as we knew he would ♥

From the merit badges and classes he's taking,

and the fun 'down time' with hiking, swimming, boating, etc - he's in his glory!

 

I had him in mind as I made this two part traveling card, 

starting on the front outside and finishing on the inside ♥

There is a total of 4 Riley and Company stamps on this card!

 The front of the card uses Hiking Riley
and the "I am" from the Inspirations sentiment - which is a wonderful way to mix and match your FunnyBones and Inspirations stamps!

Tbe inside features the brave sentiment stamp ~

along with Campfire Riley stamped and colored :)

To see what the rest of the DT created this week with the travel theme,

stop by The Ink Spot blog!

And don't forget to check out the monthly club kits! 
But wait - there's more!
Each Wednesday is a "Wacky Wednesday" flash sale -
and Friday Favorites!
So many ways to save, stamp and get inky!! :)
 

I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to their summer!

I'll be home stamping - all week! :)

Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!

Riley and Company - New Stamp Release! :)

Good Morning, friends!!  

First, thank you SO MUCH for the sweet words on my son's card! 

He was super embarrassed, turned a few shades of red, but said "thank you to all the nice people!"

So, thank you Nice People! :)

I can't believe it's already Monday!!

This weekend was action packed and over so quickly

We spent the weekend camping in the Everglades

 with our little guy and his Boy Scout troop :)

Now, I am so not a camper!  

But seeing these young men growing and learning,

gaining such incredible life experience through these outings is truly priceless ♥

I did manage to make some cards last week ~

including two you'll see posted today since it's the 9th (the day the 3M's post)

and a brand new Riley and Company week of releases!

Stay tuned, as this new release has 17 new Funny Bones satmps

and 9 Inspiration stamps.

And funny they are!  As I was creating my cards,

I was home alone just laughing (out loud!) by myself ..

These stamps are available to purchase in the Riley and Company Store Friday, Nov. 13th!

For today's card, since it's Monday, and we've been camping allllllllll weekend

and well, I love my coffee!!!!, I thought I'd show you one of my favorites of the new release:

Without my Coffee ...

 I hope you can stop back to see my 3M card, too - 

AND, all week, the Riley and Company Inspiration Team 
will be showcasing all the wonderful new stamps!  Stay tuned! :)

And here it is :)
This image was sent to us by Jeanette this month, her turn to host!
It's a gorgeous leaf image which is a beautiful reflection of Fall!
I didn't really know how to incorporate such a striking image into a card,
and can't say I'm happy with my end result, 
but I decided to stop messing with it and "leaf" it alone :)
Thank you, Jeanette and Barb, for your friendship!

  Big hugs, Bigger Blessings!
