March Blog Waddle - Annual Catalog Revisit

 Hi All,

Welcome to another Stamping Stray Duckling Blog Waddle.  This month, we want to give the 2022 -2023 Annual catalog some love!  And we get to premier our new Stray Duckling Logo!  (Thank you Kim B!

This month, we are showcasing the 2022-2023 annual catalog. The catalog expires on April 30th, so if you see something you like, you better order it now!  Especially the retiring In-Colors will be in demand.  

For my card, I decided to use some one of the stamp sets I bought because I loved it, but never used it!

The stamp set I used is called Simply Fabulous - it has such happy flowers and leaves!  I added to the happiness by using the 2022 - 2024 In-Colors - my favorites!  I also used the fabulous masking paper available in the annual catalog to make this card.  Here it is:  

Isn't this just so cheerful?  I love the colors.  I used Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet, Granny Apple Green and Crushed Curry.  My card base is Parakeet Party, and the layer is Basic Black.  On other cards, I also used the card base in Tahitian Tide.  

 I used the masking paper in the middle then stamped my greenery and flowers.   I removed the masking paper and stamped the sentiment in the middle, using my stamparatus and Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Just one layer!  And of course I had to bling it up a bit using the Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins. 

Easy peasy! 

Hope you enjoyed today's inspiration.  

Blessings,  Sheryl

March 2023 Card Class is now in Session!

 Hi all!

I finally got the cards designed for March and I think you will like them!  They are bright and cheery, in contrast to today, which is gray and dark.  Oh well, it's March - April and Easter is right around the corner.

This months cards feature Easter (2 cards are Easter cards and sorry, one of them I'm using retired product almost exclusively) and the other  two have pretty flowers and designer series paper, so that will cheer up whomever you send these to.  Here are the cards:

The cute little bunny punch is on backorder, but this little guy is not too hard to fussy cut out.  I'm featuring the two toned flower stamp set also - beautiful flowers made easy with two steps - no coloring!
