Happy Birthday Cupcake

A simple little card using one of the stamps from the January release of Stampin' UP!'s 25 year anniversary stamp set "Best of Birthdays"

• The card base is Very Vanilla, I ran the front of it through the Big Shot in the Chevron Embossing Folder.
• I stamped the cupcake image on a scrap of Watercolor paper, colored it with markers and punched it with the Wide Oval Punch.
• With the Labels Framelit I cut 2 Pacific Point CS and 1 Primrose Petal CS, I reran the Primrose one through using one of the Designer Frame Embossing Folder. I cut both the Pacific Point Labels in half each one in a different direction and attached them behind the Primrose Label to give it a narrow mat.
• The image was added to the center of the Labels and added to the card.

Fast and easy!

One in a Million

So I decided to play with the new butterfly punch- I like it so much more then the one that it replaced.

• The card base is Naturals White I used the Designer Frames Folder to emboss a frame for the phrase.
• The phrase is from One in a Million I inked it with Midnight Muse.
• I used the Elegant Butterfly Punch to punch butterflies from Midnight Muse, Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight and Pumpkin Pie. I folded their wings away from their bodies slightly and attached them in a row down the left side.

A simple card, but I am just warming back up ;)

Happy Easter

Here is another card from my Card Buffet, one that uses a well loved retired set called Well Scripted.

• The card base is Whisper White,
• The front is two pieces from the Hostess DSP Cheerful Treat with two strips of Taffeta Ribbon where the paper meets.
• A piece of Old Olive was ran through the Big Shot in the Designer Frames embossing folder and then trimmed it around the oval.  
• I stamped Happy Easter in Melon Mamba onto a scrap Whisper White and then punched it out with the Wide Oval punch. This was added to the center of the frame.
• The bunny ears are from the die Blossom Party and a mini pom pom is the tail. (here is the card that I made last year http://kath-allthatscrap.blogspot.com/2010/03/well-scripted-happy-easter.html) 

Thanks for stopping by please let me know what you think of the card.
