Flowery Thank You & Stampin' Up! Deals of the Week

This card is for this week's sketch challenge over at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.



It took me a couple days looking at the sketch to get an idea. I like the black and pink together and all the different textures. I used all the 2013-2015 in colors too.

It wasn't on purpose, but the ribbon kinda looks like the stem on the flower :)

Recipe: 

Stamps: Flower Shop, Petite Petals, Regarding Dahlias

Ink: Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana

Paper: Basic Black, Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Crisp Cantaloupe, Baked Brown Sugar, Pistachio Pudding

Misc: Fancy Fan embossing folder, Scallops embossing folder, Arrows embossing folder, Decorative Dots embossing folder, Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, Pansy punch, Petite Petals punch, rhinestones, silver ribbon.

Happy Birthday J!

It's my favorite 8 year old's birthday today, and this is the card I made him.


He loves Lego and Batman, so I wanted to try some fun punch art.

I used oval framelits for the cape and punched out some chunks with an oval punch. The head is another oval and I used the word window punch a few times at the top, and the ticket punch for the mouth.

Thanks for looking!

Stanley Cup Punch Art Birthday Card

I made this card for a friend whose birthday was this past week. She loves the Habs, and she's a card maker too, so I wanted to make her a unique card.


I rounded and sponged all the strips of paper, and the top was half of a punched circle. I traced the Montreal Canadiens logo on vellum paper with markers.

Have a good Saturday!!

Zoo Babies! PPA188

This week's sketch over at Pals Paper Arts is a pretty simple sketch. I'm not sure I like keeping things simple, but I tried... :)



I like the Zoo Babies set a lot, it's great for baby cards, but for some reason I mostly use the elephant... Maybe because he's a good size to use alone and a good shape? 

Anyway, since it was such an easy card, I made a couple more in different colors. :)



Recipe:

Stamps: Zoo Babies, Bannières Bitty

Ink: Smoky Slate, Pistachio Pudding

Paper: 2012-2015 In Color DSP, Whisper White, Pistachio Pudding card stock

Misc: Pistachio Pudding Ruffle Stretch Trim, In Color Boutique Details, Circle Framelits, Bitty Banners Framelits, Decorative Dots embossing folder, glue dots, dimensionals
