TGIF, FSS fans!  Chunyuan here to share a non-card project and a card today. I made this picture frame for my husband.  The sentiment is from the newly released Father Knows Best set.  

Of course, I have to make a card to go with it!  I stamped the reverse side of the speech bubble in white and outlined it with a fine point marker.

Father Knows Best

Have a great weekend!

You're the Bomb!

Happy Thursday, Val here with today's post. I used Father Knows Best to create this bombalicious card. Pink, rhinestones and glitter plus the bomb image/greeting make me think of a friend I've know for years.  One of her favorites sayings is "You're Da Bomb, Baby!" so I was thinking of her when I made this card.

Father Knows Best

Thanks for popping by today, come back tomorrow and see what Chunyuan has in store for you!

Hi Fresh Squeezed Friends!  Amy K. here with a thank you card using Subway Series: Basics.  These stamps can be used in so many ways but I chose to use it as my focal point today and highlight THANKS in a different ink color and accent it with matching flowers.

It's Maureen here on the Fresh Squeezed Stamps Blog.  I've been making a lot of cards lately and I mean A LOT.  However, I haven't been putting anything away.  This is very unlike me.  I'm usually pretty good about putting my scraps away.  Lately though, it's all gotten away from me.  I decided that if I'm not cleaning them up, I better start using them.

Everything on this card had been cut for and never used on another project.  Funny how my unused pieces could come together and make such a fun and trendy card.  Challenge yourself do the same and see what you come up with!

You Said It, Sister

Words to Live By

Stop by again tomorrow for more Fresh Squeezed inspiration.

You're The Bomb

TGIF, FSS fans!  Chunyuan here to share a one layer card today. I used the bomb and sentiment from the newly released Father Knows Best set.  I die cut a the shape out of printer paper and used it as a mask to ink the "blast" background.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!

Hi everyone!  Amy K. here with a sweet card that uses several Fresh Squeezed Stamp sets!

The Sweet Life

String Me Along

The Envelope, Please

It's so fun to mix and match sets to make your idea come alive!  I love the 2 bee images that are included in The Sweet Life and I paired them with the little heart that I "removed" from the envelope stamp from String Me Along.

That's it for me today but stay tuned this week as it's almost time for this month's Squeeze-A-Palooza Challenge.........get out those stamp sets and get inky!!

 

Happy Memories

Hello!  It's Amy T here with a CAS sympathy card:

I combined 2 sets:

Words to Live By

and

Tickle My Fancy

I was inspired by the latest CAS(E) this Sketch:

Thanks so much for stopping by!

A Little Red Bike

It's no secret that I love the Breath of Fresh Flair set! Hi! This is Jennifer here to share a super fun card I've created simply by repeating the same image multiple times.


I stamped the bike repeatedly and then made the very last one pop in red! I love doing that!  It is so simple, yet it has such a great impact on the design!

Breath of Fresh Flair

You could do this with just about any of the images in this stamp set and I totally love that about it! It really is such a versatile set. I love it! Thanks so much for stopping by today!


Have a Happy!

Comfort, Strength & Peace

Just a little how-do-you-do here.  I thought I'd share another card using the Words To Live By set:

Sympathy cards are never easy to make or send, but I like the sentiment here, and the design is really simple, yet not bland.  All the images/sentiments in the Words To Live By set are perfect for every occasion.

Words to Live By

We'd love to see what you make with this set (it's one of my favorites).  Stop by tomorrow -- enjoy your day!

Comfort, Strength & Peace

It's Maureen here today.   I hope you enjoyed the new release festivities this week and added some fun new sets to your cart :)

My card is one no one likes to have to make.  Sympathy cards are by far the hardest to make.  I find it best to keep some on hand so that I don't have to make one when one is needed.

Butterflies and soft colors are my go-to for sympathy cards.  They are soothing and evoke healing.  I used a beautiful sentiment from the Words to Live By set and paired it with a little scrolly flourish I found hiding in the newly released, The Envelope, Please.  It works perfectly as a butterfly trail, don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by today.  Come back tomorrow for more Fresh Squeezed inspiration!

Happy Friday

We know you like getting stuff for free, so we think you might want to head over to Paper Crafts Connection and check out their Freebie Friday!
