Pretty In Pink Celebrate

          More birthday......told you I did alot of birthday, and there's still more!!

This one again is SU stamp, ink and paper.  Some coloring with the markers, paper flowers, bling and some distressing around blue was what I did/added.  I really like the colors - it would be good for baby cards too!!!

Thanks for visiting.  Your comments are very much appreciated.

Elegant Eggplant Something For You

I love using SUs micro beads.  They are so simple to use and they add so much.  I've used them here to punch up the flowers.  As you can see, a few gold ones got in among my clear ones.  I cut out the center flower and popped it  up to add dimension.

This stamp set is one of SU's two step stamping.  I love doing that and I don't do it enough.  The colors in this one is similar to my earlier post, but I like this one best. 

Thanks for visiting.

Pretty In Pink Happy

Love the butterfly in the flower.  Love the sparkly happy.  I just love how feminine this whole card looks.  Super simple to do and look how great it turned out.

Thanks for visiting.

Elegant Eggplant Celebrate

I got a borders stamp set and I had to use it on this one.  It made it fun looking, hopefully suitable for my girls to use.  I love the EE and the Old olive together, it works for me.   Used SU markers to color the balloons and a bit of Stickles and it's ready to go!!

Thanks for visiting.

Close to Cocoa Celebration

Pink and brown is one of my fav color combos.  This SU DP has a splash of blue thrown in; not sure what it's called.  Love the rick rack velvet ribbon and the celebrate banner - gold ribbon with clear acetate over it and popped up.

Thanks for visiting.

Barely Banana Birthday

The holidays are done and what a whirlwind. I may not have posted anything, but I was not idle. My card stash was low on birthday cards, so I created a few, which I will be showing you over the days to come.

Here is the first. It's very easy to make.

Joy Ornament

My mojo is working tonight!!!

I did the ornament a couple days ago and put the rest of the card together tonight in about a half an hour - that's the quickest I've ever put a card together!!

I saw this ornament done this way on Dreaming About Rubber Stamps by Darlene McCallum (click here to view) and knew I had to make one. I stamped the ornament three times. The one in green I added sparkles; punched them out with their very own ornament punch; scored and folded them down the middle and glued them together. The DP is from last year - can't find the name of it. I added some bling and a sentiment and Voila!!

Silver and Blue

Here's Dasher heat embossed in silver, matted with Brilliant Blue and again in a textured silver paper I had. The front of the card is embossed with my handy dandy Cuttlebug Dots. I then took a piece of the new Bride DP and edged it with Martha Stewart's snowflake punch, put a bow on it (from Michaels, I think) and then layered Brocade Blue CS behind the snowflakes.

Holiday Trees

With the last card being so finiky, I thought I would do simple one.

Stamped ands cut out the trees, then heat embossed with chunky clear embossing powder. Popped them up on a green mulberry paper, which is on creamy caramel CS on really rust CS. Using cc ink, I stamped and stamped off snowflakes, as I did with the star. The sentiment is in cc ink as well, with some chocolate around it. Add some red bling and voila, it's done!!

Happy Holidays

I saw a white card the other day and thought I must try that. And here it is.






White and silver ribbon around embossed white CS layered on silver CS.





The sentiment is painstakingly cut out - both layers!! It was pretty finiky cutting around all those swirls. Under that I used a spellbinders shape (not sure what it's called but I'm sure you recognize it). I really like how it came out.
