"Mother's Day"

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to use some colors that I do not normally use.  Sometimes I just get stuck on the same ones!

This is the card I made for my Mom, she loved it :-)  Base of the card is Barely Banana with Baroque Motifs stamped in Barely Banana.  I used Whisper White and Vellum and ran it through the Big Shot.  Did the masking technique on the flowers.  I used Basic Gray instead of Black, I did not like the harshness of the black when I tried it. 

Stamps:  Well Scripted, Greenhouse Garden, Baroque Motifs

Paper:  Whisper White, Barely Banana, Vellum

Ink:  Barely Banana, Yo Yo Yellow, Pixie Pink, Rose Red, Basic Gray

Accessories:  Silver Brads, Top Note Die, Scallop Circle Punch, Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by, hope everyone is having a great weekend :-)

~Quick Birthday Card~

Hello Everyone!

Needed a quick Birthday card and this is what I came up with.  I had some Memory Box paper from their "Gossamer" collection and trimmed the patterned paper to fit.  I added some brown gingham ribbon and decided it needed something so I added the scallop border.  A card would not be a card without some bling so I applied some "Fruit Punch" Stickles to the flowers.  Sentiment is SU from the "Well Scripted" Set.

Stamps:  SU Well Scripted
Paper:  Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, Memory Box - Gossamer
Ink:  Chocolate Chip
Accessories:  Martha Stewart Scallop Punch, Brown Gingham Ribbon, Fruit Punch Stickles

Groovy Guava Birthday

Here is yet another birthday card using up some old "In Colors" and DSP!  The Stamp set is retired SU "Live Your Dream".  Sometimes there are just some sets that you just can't part with and this is one of my favorites!  I also used Teeny Tiny Words stamp set for the Happy Birthday.  I used several punches on this card, Ticket Corner, Word Window, Modern Label and a non SU Scallop Border.  Inks used are Groovy Guava, Close to Cocoa, Certainly Celery and Old Olive.  I added some stickers for a little bling!

Hope everyone has a great week and thanks for stopping by :-)

Masculine Birthday

Masculine cards are always a challenge.  I had some left over design paper (unknown) and went with those colors.  I also have been trying to use up some old "In Color" paper and ink.  The card base is Blue Bayou and for added interest I added some Sahara Sand cardstock for layering.  The b is for birthday (SU Party Hearty Stamp Set)  is stamped in Blue Bayou, stamped again onto Sahara Sand with Versamark and used Clear embossing powder and used a circle punch to cut it out and then used a dimensional to pop it up.  This creation went to my father-in-law for his birthday last week!

Have a great weekend everyone and thanks for stopping by :-)
