Sent with Love

Hello, Fresh Squeezed fans and happy Saturday! Katie here today. It's funny how once the tree is down and the calendar turns the page, our thoughts turn to Valentine's Day. I have a card to share today that (closer to the big day) will be sent with love.

I stamped the envelope from String Me Along onto a scrap of cream cardstock.  To make the open flap, I simply rotated the stamp 180 degrees and stamped the envelope again. I trimmed away the excess of the top envelope image and was left with an open envelope. I scored and creased the flap to give it a bit more dimension.

The hearts are also from String Me Along.  Using a craft knife, I separated the heart from the envelope.  The end result gives me a lot of flexibility and a cute little heart stamp!  I stamped the airplane, sentiment and trail from The Envelope, Please, then added the twine and a few sequins.  I would say love is definitely in the air!

Well, that's all for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by!  -Katie

Hi Fresh Squeezed fans!  Tracey here with a baby blue card for a baby boy!  I used the baby sentiment from Subway Series: Occasions as the focal point of my card.  I clear embossed it and topped it with a baby blue onesie from String Me Along and a cute happy face from The Envelope, Please.

Happy Monday, Fresh Squeezed friends!  It's Virginia here!  I know it's only Monday, but don't you think EVERY DAY should be a SPA DAY?? Well, we are celebrating today with a Spa Day card!

With the chalkboard effect, this card is pretty self-explanatory.  I embossed the sentiment from Subway Series: Occasions in white and used chalk ink for the rest of the stamping and edging. To add a celebratory feel to this card, I added the die cut vellum banner with pink pearls on top!  And oh... the little swirls you see?  It's from The Envelope, Please set.

Now I hope this Spa Day card kicks off your week to a great start!  Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Fresh Squeezed friends!  It's Virginia here with your Monday post!  I'm absolutely delighted to share this card with you today!

With some planning ahead, you can create a fun city scene!  First, I did some masking with the Polaroid frame. Then I stamped the skyscrapers with a piece of thin paper to mask off part of the image.  It was fun to stamp the circles from On Trend 2013!

 

The Envelope, Please                      On Trend 2013

What do you think?  The 'across the miles' sentiment seems to fit perfectly, right?  Now go and stare at your stash of stamps and maybe you will see something there that you didn't see before?  :) Thanks so much for stopping by!

Congrats

Hi Fresh Squeezed Stamps fans!  Tracey here sharing a personal congratulations card. By using sentiments and images from You Said It, Sister and The Envelope, Please, I created a faux subway art card using the chalkboard technique on chocolate.  This is a fantastic way to combine sentiments from several sets to create a completely customized card.

 

Come back tomorrow for some more Fresh Squeezed fun with Erin! Have a great day.

Across The Miles!

Happy Monday, dear Fresh Squeezed friends! It's Virginia here! Today I am sharing a simple card with you.

Sometimes the stamped images can speak volumes, you hardly need to do any fancy techniques or tricks to showcase them! I simply mixed and matched the two stamp sets and had a ton of fun creating a happy scene! This almost one layer card is perfect for mailing!

    String Me Along                                     The Envelope, Please

Can you tell which stamps I used? I used 9 stamps in total from String Me Along and The Envelope, Please! Be sure to come back for more inspiration from our DT! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Handle With Care

Hi Fresh Squeezed friends! Tracey here to share a new baby card using that adorable onesie from String Me Along with some supporting sentiments and an image from The Envelope, Please.  The happy face was stamped with a darker shade of pink on the front of the onesie.

 

I have a new great niece, born last weekend, so this card already has a destination! Check back in tomorrow for some more Fresh Squeezed inspiration.  Have a great day!

Sent With Love!

Happy Monday, Fresh Squeezed friends! It's Virginia here!  I'm sharing a sweet card with lots of sentiments!  Sometimes, one sentiment doesn't seem to be enough to convey your thoughts and feelings.  Well, never fear!

This set The Envelope Please can easily do that for you!  It comes with multiple sentiments (13 exactly)!  You can stamp your chosen sentiment as the background! I topped it off with big red lips and a little pink heart pearl!  Voila!

The Envelope, Please

I hope this gives you some ideas as to what you can do with small sentiment stamps! Have yourself a lovely day! 

Save the Date, Please

Val here with your weekly Thursday post!  Today's card uses Breath of Fresh Flair and The Envelope, Please to create a fun, graphic (with a little lace doily die cut twist) "Save the Date" card.

I was inspired by the Fusion Card Challenge (that unfortunately ended yesterday). 

Thank you so much for dropping by today, please return tomorrow and see what inspiration is waiting for you!

You Rock!

Hello Fresh Squeezed Stamp friends! Amy K here to share a fun and trendy card that would be perfect for a teen! 

I used the arrow stamp from The Envelope, Please to stamp a border in a fun color combination.  Pairing my favorite saying "you rock" from You Said It, Sister is the perfect touch!  (my family doesn't claim me when I say "you rock"....hehe....it's fun to say though!)

Have a fabulous Wednesday!!!

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.

The Sweet Life 

String Me Along

The Envelope, Please

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!!

 

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!

Release Week Day 2: The Envelope, Please

So glad you could make it to our May Release Week Day 2!!  We're thinking outside the box (or envelope) with this set!

The Envelope, Please helps give that very important envelope a little love, too!  We thought it would be fun to create lots of images to dress up more than just your card, and the jazzy sentiments follow suit.   Mix and match 'em -- then sit back and enjoy knowing your card's recipient is smiling ear to ear!

The Envelope, Please

Mail's in!  Here's a sweet card by Val Stangle using the airplane image and pretty little sentiments sure to make someone happy.  Love how she popped up the word "love" onto the red heart...so cute!

Val Stangle

These stamps aren't just for envelopes, so give that card a kiss!  Amy Tsuruta sealed this one with lots of fun images from the set...guaranteed to give someone a thrill when they open some very happy mail!

Amy Tsuruta

All signs point to HAPPY MAIL for Amy Kolling!  So many cool little elements are available in this set!!  That smiley face alters an envelope from the String Me Along set -- another must-have!

Amy Kolling

Love the old fashioned string and button closure image paired with some fun sentiments! Maureen Merritt added awesome dimension with embossed clouds that work great with the airplane image, too!
