Birthday Card for Sis'

I created a Birthday card for my little sister using a card I got from my BFF Tina as an idea starting point.  (Thanks Tina)


 
The stamp set I used was Perfect Pennants stamped in Black and then stamped again in Strawberry Slush and the "a" cut out with the 1/2" circle punch.  The front was embossed with a retired embossing folder (sorry)!  I used Candy Dots on the centers of the flowers and one on the inside.  I lined the emvelope with Sweet Taffy DSP cut with the Envelope Liner Framelits.  I used the Oval Framelits to cut the front and the inside sentiment and border.

Perpetual Desk Calendar

This idea came from PaperCraft Button YouTube Video.  It was fun to create and a bit challenging, well, maybe not for some people, but for me....yep!  I was bound and determined to get it made, so here it is!


The base is Daffodil Delight CS, the DSP is Sweet Taffy and the Stamp Set is Memorable Moments.  You can also go to her Blog for additional instructions and measurements.

Friend's Birthday



Here is the card and box/gift I created for a good friend of mine.  The Faux Silk with Filter Paper instructions came from Stamping School.  I used different stamps than Linda Heller did but the idea is the same.



The card base is Lost Lagoon and I ran it through the Big Shot using the Filigree Frame Embossing Folder.  I love how deep it embosses.  The Flower is from Bloom With Hope and the leaves For All Things Stamp Sets.  The inside and circle are from the Amazing Birthday Stamp Set.  The circle top on the box was sent to me by Angie Juda when I ordered her Chic Stand.  It was there on my desk and I sponged around the edges and added an eye...viola!  Colored the Rhinestones with Daffodil Delight Blendabilities pen.   A little ribbon and mounted on Blackberry Bliss CS.

Sherri's Get Well Card

I saw a card similar to this on Pinterest, sorry but didn't get a name to associate with it.  If it's yours' that I CASEd, let me know and I'll add your credit.




I used Crumb Cake CS for the base of the card.  the next layer was Blushing Bride and the Band-Aids I did in Pistachio Pudding CS.  The little heart is more Blushing Bride and Red Glimmer Paper.  The better get better is from A Dozen Thoughts Stamp Set.  The inside of the envelope was lined with Gold Soiree Specialty DSP and cut with the Envelope Liner Framelit.  I used the punch on the Envelope Maker to round the corners on the Band-Aids and ran them through the Textured Impressions and Perfect Polka Dots EFs.  The inside was computer generated.  My friend took a fall and had to have surgery on her wrist, hope she heals quickly!  Love you Sherri~

Another Baby Card

I created another Baby Card for a co-worker but this time it was in "Pink" for a "Girl"!


 
The Stamp Set is Baby, We've Grown for the sentiment and Something for Baby to create the baby buggy and the little flower.  I used Strawberry Slush CS and ran it through the Large Polka Dot EF.  The base of the card is Crumb Cake and behind the Gold Soiree Specialty DSP (also use the Gold Soiree to line the inside of the envelope flap).  Rhinestones for some bling and the new Natural and Old Olive Two-Tone Trim to tie a bow and go around the card.  I used the large oval punch and Decorative Label Punch for the sentiment.  The inside was computer generated.  I rounded all the corners using the Envelope Maker!

Make-a-Wish

My Daughter found a card at her local boutique that was created by Julie at Stamp Your Dream Designs.  This is my CASE using a little different CS/Stamps.


 
I used Blackberry Bliss for the Base.  The DSP is from the Sweet Taffy DSP.  I used the Banners Framelits.  Make a Wish is from Perfect Pennants Stamp Set.  Happy Birthday sentiment is from Playful Pennants Stamp Set.  The flowers are from Petite Petals and punched with the coordinating punch.  The inside of the card is Daffodil Delight.  I used the Candy Dots inside the little flowers.  Rounded the edges with the Envelope Maker.   Thanks for a great sample Julie, love your work!
