Flower Pot card

This card fits in a standard card envelope, We made them at club with flowers from the Big Shot, as well as the die cut ones that are in the catalog, we also punch some in about every color. They turned out great.

Flower Pot Card

Cut a sheet of Tangerine Tango or Pumpkin Pie in half at 4 ¼" x 11".
Fold sheet in half and with the fold at the bottom fold the top two sides down at 2".
From the bottom edge measure in at 3/8" cut diagonally from that point to the edge at the upper fold. Do this on both sides.
Punch the folded down edges with the scallop edge punch.
Sponge edges of pot with Really Rust, darker at the edges and under rim of pot (scallop edge).
Tightly tie a ribbon around the rim of the pot so that the pot forms a pocket.
The inside pull out piece is 3" x 3 ¼".
Select a variety of punched flowers. Starting on the rim attach flowers to the rim.
On the inside pull out piece continue to build a pyramid of flowers, make sure that from the bottom of the pull out to the top of the top flower it measures 5" high (when you put it back into the pot pocket it should be a finished size of 4 ¼" x 5 ½").
Place the insert in to the pot.
Stamp phrase on scrap paper and punch with the small oval punch, punch a large oval from a color of your choice. Attach to the tied ribbon with a piece linen thread.

Wonderful Father

The colors don't show well in this, the card base is Sahara Sand, the papers are from "To the Nines" The stamp set is Wonderful Favorites. The Always Artichoke paper is raised with dimentionals, as well as the Wonderful Father.

Pun Fun- hip-hippo-ray

Hip-hippo-ray, now if only Stampin'up would make a stamp that said "I was born today" how cool would that be! That's what I'd want stamped inside this card.
The card base is Whisper white, layered with Pretty in Pink, and pieces from Sweet Always. I watercolored the hippo on watercolor paper with Water color Wonder Crayons, Layered it on Pumpkin Pie, then Regal Rose. I used a brad from Flower Assortment. I hope you like it.

Party Hearty- Sweet Always

I used a Jumbo Eyelet in the middle of the "b" and the seed beeds on the cupcakes. The colors are taken straight from the Sweet Always paper, Chocolate Chip and Pumpkin Pie.

Boy and Girl Baby Cards

I thought these were a fun baby card. (One of my customers came and made 20 of these for a baby announcement) The bib is made using the Scallop Circle die and 1 1/4" circle punch. they are decorated with punch art animals, if you would like the instructions leave me a message and I'll get them out for you. Hope you like them!

Party Hearty- that just didn't quite work...

In my head this was going to be cute, finished it didn't make it. I think it needs a Pink Passion Ribbon, then it might have worked better. The base is a piece of Pink Passion CS cut at 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" I cut Green Galore at 5 1/4" x 8 1/2" and bi-folded it, I used the Curly Label punch so the Let's celebrate shows through to the front. So what would you do to make this card work?

Fresh cut - Thank you

Well I tried to be good, I cased this card by someone named Chat (My son figured out where I cased from it is: http://memystampsandi.blogspot.com) but the web sit is blurry and I can't read it to direct you to her site, I tried, I really did:(. She used different colors added ribbon and dew drops (?) Her designer paper layer was twice as wide, We did use the same stamp set. So my card. I used Chocolate Chip as my card base. Layer are Bordering Blue and Chocolate Chip. The designer paper is from Bella Birds. My inks are Bordering Blue and Chocolate Chip.

Rustic Rooster-Trivet

I used the brown Stazon that Stampin' UP used to carry to stamp the rooster and the border on this tile. I used the felt pads used for chair legs to keep them from scratching floors, to keep the tile from scratching the counter top. Really simple to make.

Fun & Fast Notes-Wedding

I used the Stampin' UP Simple Flower for the back ground of this card, I dabbed a little Pretty in Pink chalk on the center of each of the flowers. I stamped the image in Stazon on Whisper White CS and colored it with Going Grey, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, and Barely Banana Stampin' Write markers. I matted it with Pink Pirouette CS than centered it on the card front. I used the Organza Ribbon tied on the side.

A Beautiful Thing/One of a Kind

One of a Kind, Fresh Cuts, A Beautiful Thing, are all stamp sets I used for this card. I think I should have stamped 2/3 of the card and only left 1/3 blank. I done like the simple look of this card.

Friendly Words/Great Friend

A simple card to make! I ran the wheel over my Bordering Blue pad, then colored over one of the phrases with my Chocolate Chip Marker, rolled it on Whisper White. I used Chocolate Chip CS to mat the phrase and the piece of Designer paper from Bella Birds. The butterfly is fro Great friends I stamped it with Bordering Blue then cut it out attached it with Mini Glue Dots. The base is Pink Pirouette CS.

Thoughts of Father

Watercoloring is my favorite! I used ink pads this time it makes the watercoloring a little more vibrant. After folding the Very Vanilla in half I cut 1 3/4" off the front, from this scrap I used 1" for the band. I used the word window punch for the slot that the band goes into. I matted the image with Tangerine Tango as well as the yellow print of the designer paper. (I thought until recently that the image was a watering can, I laughed when I found out it was an oil can)

Oval All and Walk in the Park

These are a fun and easy card to make, Finished size is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". I used three sides of the Walk in the Park designer paper from the Occasions Mini. I love punches so it was funny that when I pre-ordered I didn't even notice the new punch until after I turned my order in, I now own it, but didn't when I made these cards. The base of the card was cut at 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" then folded to the 5 1/2" you can adapt the top piece to fit what ever you want to show.
