Happy Birthday Card

Hello Stampers! (Don't I sound like Dawn Griffin?) LOL

Here's another card we recently did for my January class. I used the Textile embossing folder from Cuttlebug on the three white panels. The flowers are from Eastern Blooms and I colored the flowers with a Yoyo Yellow marker and the stem in Old Olive. I punched 3 flowers from the Trio Flower punch in Yoyo Yellow and adhered them with gold brads. The ribbon on the side is Old Olive Twill (okay, am I having a Senior Moment? I can't find it in the old catalog and I know it's from SU!). I popped the focal piece with dimensionals.

Thanks for taking a look. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think! Thanks!!!

Hi Everyone! Imagine two posts in one week!!! That's a miracle for me!!! LOL

Here's another card I recently did for my Denver class.

It's using the new Elegant Thank you stamp (I really want some more of those stamps on the last page -- what a deal!). The card also uses the square scallop punch. Punch four scallops in Riding Hood Red to make a mat for the thank you sentiment. The designer series paper is the yummy Raspberry Tart. I used Riding Hood Red cardstock and ink on this card, along with Kiwi Kiss. Really simple card.

Thanks for stopping by!

I am SUCH a Blog Slacker!!!

Hi Everyone!

I'm finally back and have to apologize for being such a blog slacker (I saw that somewhere and LOVED it!!!) :-D

Here is a card we made in one of my classes. I saw the quilt technique online and just had to do one.

It is so easy. Punch 12 pieces of designer series paper with the 1 1/4 inch square punch. Adhere the pieces to a 4 1/4 x 5 piece of Whisper White cardstock using two strips of snail per row, and then using the Top Note die for the Bigshot, putting the "quilt" face down on the die, cut out your die. The scallop behind the Thanks a Bunch is also a die from Sizzix. I popped the sentiment with dimensionals. Tie your ribbon before adhering to the card base.

Thanks for stopping by and I'm really planning on being better about blogging!!! :-D

Good Morning!

Hello Everyone! I'm FINALLY getting myself together (what a chore!) and my stamp room is coming together. Here's another card we did for my class. The image is from Morning Soft and is embossed in black on watercolor paper. I scribbled color from the Watercolor Crayons in Elegant Eggplant on the center of the flowers and Lavender Lace on the edges. I blended the colors, one at a time, with an aqua painter. The leaves are colored the same way with Certainly Celery for the leaf base and Always Artichoke as the highlights in the leaves. The sentiment is stamped in Elegant Eggplant. The focal piece is layered on Lavender Lace on an Elegant Eggplant card base. I added a Whisper White piece on the inside for ease of writing.

Thanks for stopping by!!
