Casual Relaxing in the Sun

The good news is we got a reprieve from the weather for one day.  The bad news is I just wanted to spend it outside relaxing in the sun.  :)  That is not what ultimately happened, but it got me thinking  I want to set up a place where I can relax in the sun, enjoying the blooming trees, flowers, and green grass while still being about to engage my mind and creativity and get some crafting done simultaneously  Looks like I'll need to figure out a way to create a stamping station outside.  Or a portable station I can take anywhere including outdoors.  Got any great ideas?  I hope to be able to share my new stamping space with you here on the blog very soon.




Today's card was inspired by one I had done earlier this month while I was dreaming of sunny days.  I would classify that card #simplestamping since it only used stamps, ink, and paper.  And, it only use a Whisper White cardbase with a scene stamped directly on it with no layers.

Today's card was inspired both by that card and by the sketch for CTS #322.  I feel this is a card for the casual stamper  The cardstock is Blueberry Bushel with the sponged and stamped images on smaller pieces of Whisper White.  The flowering branch was stamped while the longer strip of cardstock was laying on the other Whisper White rectangle and then the smaller strip was elevated with dimensionals.  The lemonade was stamped on a separate piece of white and then cut out before being added to the scene and the sentiment was punched out with the Classic Label Punch before being added to the card.

I hope you get a chance to relax in the sun soon and I hope we both find ways to enjoy our crafting and nature at the same time.
