A Very Merry Everything

As a Premium Member of Angie Juda's Chic n Clique I also have access to her Stamp Club Online creations.  She is so awesome!  This is the box she posted, her's was in different colors and DSP but the directions are all the same!  So fun....thanks Angie!

I used Marina Mist CS and Ink Pad.  The stamp and punch to cut it out are from the Merry Everything Bundle.  I used Santa & Co. DSP, Whisper White Organza Ribbon tied with a piece of Silver Bakers Twine.  Some Rhinestones for "bling" on the tag~

Happy Stamping!

Sister Birthday Card

Yep, another Sister having a Birthday ~ there are a lot of us!!  LOL!!!

I used Wisteria Wonder as my card, layered with Regal Rose and more Wisteria Wonder ran through the Polka Dot Embossing Folder and the other diagonal half is Cheerful Treat DSP.  The ribbon across the center is Whisper White Organza.  I used a circle of  Regal Rose and ran it through the Square Lattice Embossing Folder, distressed the edges and sponged some Early Espresso and layered on my Cupcake from the Easy Events Stamp Set on Water Color Paper and colored with a Blender Pen and Water Color Crayons and a Water Color Pencil.  I sponged around the cupcake with Early Espresso. Then added some Rhinestone Jewels.

 The inside was computer generated but I stamped the flowers on the sides with a stamp from Just Believe Stamp Set in Wisteria Wonder, just to tie it all together.  Hope my Sis' has a great Birthday and enjoys our good wishes.

bring on the CAKE!

My hubby asked me to create a Birthday Card for his new found Granddaughter Melinda.  Thanks to the help of Dawn's Stamping Thoughts, I came up with this card.

I added lots of "bling" with the Rhinestones.  The card base is Regal Rose CS and Old Olive CS.  I used the Cupcake Punch for the little cupcake, the Modern Label Punch and Word Window Punch.  A little White Organza Ribbon and the stamp sets Bring On The Cake and Water Color Trio.   Now to get Bob to put it into the mail on time!!!  LOL!!!

Another Elements of Style Purse and Card

Here's another project I lifted from CardScraps. The first one I did in black/white, this one is Not Quite Navy. Go down a ways and you can see it and the information on how I made it. The only difference is I used Not Quite Navy CS and Classic Ink. Also, I used White Tafetta Ribbon and died it with my Not Quite Navy Classic Ink for the handle on the purse. I also added a little white pearl and a flower from the Pretties Kit for the closure on the purse using a little Not Quite Navy ink sponged on the flower to help it match. Hope you like it!

Tulip Card

I saw this card on Dawn's site (wow is she awesome) .... then my Sister Judy made one and told me how quick and easy they were to make so I tried my hand....her 'tis~

I used Melon Mambo CS and Whisper White ran through the Big Shot with the Perfect Polka Dots Impression Folder. The tulip is cut using the XL Two-Step Bird Punch (Dawn explains it all on her tutorial ~ go check it out by clicking on her name in the first sentence of this post) .. I used Old Olive CS for the green and the Tiny Tags Stamp Set punched with the Medium Jewelry Tag Punch. The top is punched with the Slit Punch with White Organza Ribbon and Tiny Silver Brads. Sponged the Whisper White center piece with Melon Mambo Ink and stamped the sentiment with the same ink. I sponged the tiny tag with Old Olive Ink. Hope you like it and thanks for looking. :o)

Blue Rose Birthday Card

I tried making one of the paper roses like Julie Williams at Simi Stamper shared. Those are NOT easy...but they sure come out cute, don't you think?

I used the Bride Specialty Paper and sponged it with Brocade Blue Ink Pad. The rose was Bashful Blue CS sponged with the Brocade Blue. The Happy Birthday is from the Well Scripted Stamp Set on Whisper White punched with the Wide Oval Punch. I used Old Olive for the leaves that were punched with the Extra Large Two-Step Bird punch. The card base is Bashful Blue CS and I rounded the corners with the Corner Rounder Punch. I also used Whisper White Organza Ribbon and behind the sentiment I added a Wide Oval Punched piece of Old Olive CS.
