Bliss

I made this card for a friend's birthday and I just love it.

The stamp set is a Sale-a-bration set I just got, called Bliss.

I used the Framed tulips textured impressions embossing folder for the big shot. "Bliss" is punched out with the curly label punch.

The colors are Elegant Eggplant and Daffodil Delight.

Spring is almost here!

I have a stamp set called Printed Petals that I got a while ago, but never used. It is so pretty so I decided to make some "springy" cards. One more week and spring is officially here.

Anyway, here is the stamp set. It has the clear mount stamps and I used the acrylic blocks with them.


For this card, I used Pumpkin Pie and Tangerine Tango. The ribbon is striped pumpkin pie. I punched out the small flowers with the 1/2" circle punch.
















For this card, I used some of the newer colors- Marina Mist and Daffodil Delight.

The flower is punched with the scallop punch and the stem/leaves were made using the little leaves die for the Big shot. The background was made with the perfect polka dots embossing folder.

Simple Birthday Cards

These are 2 elegant yet simple birthday cards made with embossing folders (for the Big Shot). For the first one, I used the "elegant bouquet" textured impressions embossing folder and colored in some of the flowers with the versamarker, just to give them some texture. The button is cut out using the buttons sizzlet die.

For the second card, I used the "perfect polka dots" embossing folder and the top note die.

The color is So Saffon and the sentiment is from "whimsical words", a sale-a-bration set from last year.
You can see the embossing better in the first picture, for the first card and in the second picture, for the second card.

New Baby cards

I made this boy card for a friend a few months ago.. yes, just getting around to posting it!

And over the weekend, my mother-in-law asked me if I had any girl baby cards. So I used the boy card as a sample and made her these 2 girl cards. They were quick and easy.

For the girl card on the left, I used the perfect polka dot impressions folder for the big shot to make the strip in the middle. For both cards, I used the Whisper White organza ribbon.
