If you have followed me for a while you know we have spent the last year in remodeling our forever home on the lake and today was a busy one finishing up lots of unfinished little odds and ends. We are blessed with the best contractor in the area and I was excited to get all the items on our punch list completed. The most exciting of the little jobs left was our kitchen backsplash – we debated whether to do one at all so it was a last minute add in and not completed in the initial pass through – but today they finished it and it is gorgeous!
Here is a peak at that project and the quick card I made today in the midst of all that busyness! It’s a lovely glass subway tile in pearlescent whites, grays and beige- I LOVE IT!!!

The card is also set in a background of white, this time with 1/4″ scrap strips. I placed half of them consecutively in the 3D embossing folder Timeworn Type. Then I adhered alternating strips of embossed and plain strips down a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of Basic Thick White cardstock scored in half at 5 1/2″. I then stamped the larger floral image in Smoky Slate on a Stylish Shapes circle die and the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Memento ink (both from the Fitting Florets stamp set). I used a die from the same bundle Framed Florets in Silver Foil for the accent pieces and used the upcoming NEW embellishments – Opaque Adhesive-backed Gems (SNEAK PEAK) for the matching bling! I finished it off with the Gray Granite ribbon and there you have a quick and easy card for a busy day!
Hope you can sneak in a quick and easy card on your busy days because there is a great sense of accomplishment when you create your own art – one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
