Beautiful Friendship Birthday

Both of these cards use one of my current favorite stamp sets.  Beautiful Friendship has been a very versatile set.  I've made Birthday cards, Sympathy cards, Thank you cards - it just has so many possibilities!

I made this post to show the versatility of this stamp set.  I made two completely different birthday cards.  One features purples and Melon Mambo, and the second features blues, yellows, and Cinnamon Cider.  I used the same background stamps and came up with two completely different looks based on the colors.

Pretty Perennials

 This stamp set has so many possibilities!  Over time, you're going to see a lot of cards/projects made with it.  Today I just wanted to do some basic #simplestamping with it.

Stamps, ink, paper, a bit of ribbon, and enamel dots.

There are quite a few colors... and this shows off the Magenta Madness much better than the pictures I took of the zebra card from a few days ago!

I talk often about decorating envelopes.  Yes, I do stamp the back quite often, but I mean the front of the envelope!  I echoed the colors from the card so the stamping was easy while I made the card. 

You'll see this set again.  It has so many possibilities!

Happy Birthday Frame

YES!  I have been creating!  I promise.  I've posted on my Demonstrator Facebook page a little more often than here recently.  I don't watermark my things there - and can post more quickly.

I saw this frame from another demonstrator, and thought it would be PERFECT for a kid's birthday.  It's so colorful and bright. 

 The frame and background paper are scrapbook size - 12x12.  I used my "math teacher" skills to figure the sizes of the squares and rectangular pieces.

 Many of the pieces are cut from the Designer Series Paper that went along with the background papers.  It just looks so much like a party!

 There are many techniques here - die cutting (of course), fussy cutting, alcohol markers, heat embossing, ribbon, and bling!

 I had a lot of fun with my Enamel Glitter Dots after the frame pieces were finished!

I have another framed piece we made in my club, BUT I can't show it yet.  It's a gift.  I'll show the picture after it is presented.

Halloween Card

It's true, I don't normally send Halloween cards.   I CASEd this idea I saw on Pinterest.  The purple with the black was so perfect, I just had to make it!

 I added quite a few details to my card from the one I saw.  I used my Alcohol Markers for the hat, and watercolor pencils for the kitty and broom.  Unlike the treat packaging where I cut a bunch of the images out of the Designer Series paper, here I stamped and colored each of the images.

I also added quite a few of the glitter enamel dots.  In addition to the Wink of Stella, they had the perfect amount of sparkle.
