Grandson Birthday Card

I made a Birthday Card for my step-Grandson.  Hope he likes it?  I saw a barrell made with the Hardwood Stamp, thought I'd try and create one.  Couldn't find it again to CASE!

I used Soft Suede CS for the base and Baja Breeze run through the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  The Hardwood Stamp Set on Crumb Cake for the barrel.  The flowers were punched with the Petite Petals Punch and I stamped some of the flowers using the matching Petite Petals Stamp Set.  I also punched some using Watercolor Wonder DSP along with some other scraps of floral DSP I found in my drawer. A little sponging and some Candy Dots for the centers.  I used the Envelope Liner Framelit to cut some of the Watercolor Wonder DSP for the inside flap of the envelope.

Jeri's Frame

My friend at work said good-bye on Friday.  She's a retiree that came back for a 6 month job to help another department 5 years ago....now that's a long 6 months!  She's an awesome lady and has been a very close friend for many years ~ Best wishes Jeri!  This is the frame I made for her as a going-away gift:

The background paper is Pistachio Pudding CS from the In-Color Paper Stack 2013-2015.  I used the Labels Collection Framelits to cut out the saying and sponged the edges in Chocolate Chip.  The vases are from the Vivid Vases single stamp set, I fussy-cut them and stamped on them and used dimensionals to add them over the top of the stamped vases.  I added some flowers stamped out of the Watercolor Wonder DSP and added little pearls to the centers of the flowers.

Here are some of the products I used:

I gave it to her yesterday and she told me she has a perfect spot in her home to hang it!  Will miss you Jeri~

Cindee's Card (I CASED it!)

I CASED Cindee's Card from Just Sponge It, I changed the sentiment because I needed a thank you card, the Thank You is from  the Sassy Salutations Stamp Set, everything else is pretty much the same!  Thanks Cindee, that card is awesome.  As soon as I saw it I knew I had to try and make one!

I used the Hexagon Hive Thinlits Die and the Banners Framelits Dies.  Cindee was right about the Hive Thinlit, use waxed paper and the paper comes out of the die so much easier.  The background is Watercolor Wonder DSP and the base is Pacific Point CS. The little flowers were punched with the Petite Petals Punch  from the same DSP and sponged.  I also sponged around the banner.  Small Pearls for the centers of the flowers and viola....almost as good as Cindee's....tee hee!!!  Thanks again Cindee for sharing, love your site Just Sponge It!

Hugs, Julia
