Love gives us a Fairytale

This card has a base of Whisper White CS, with Basic Black and Regal Rose Layers, my daughter needed a card for a wedding and I thought this did the job, it was simple and fast. I inked the stamp with Regal Rose but darkened Love with a Rose Red marker.

Wow!!!

1-So swine flu hit my family, I sent my youngest to scout camp and he came home ill.

3- I found some time today to stamp so tomorrow I'll post.

Spring Song

The bird was stamped on watercolor paper and colored with watercolor wonder crayons and an aqua painter. The colors are Kiwi Kiss, Cameo Coral, and Rose Red. The designer paper is Raspberry tart.

Loads of Love- candles

I love Loads of Love and watercoloring! I used the candle from Party Hearty and masked and stamped. The paper and card stock are retiring.

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?
