Sophistication meets Simple equals Perfection!

Hey Guys!

I got this idea from Pinterest, but for the life of me I can’t find it again to give credit! If you know who made this first, please let me know.

I’m not sure if this would be as stunning if I had used White paper, but who cares!?  it is so pretty!  I love how the bird sits at the opening of the circle and is dimensional.  The pearls gave a great touch too, right?

Here are the particulars for this card:

Stamp Sets
Petal Palette Bundle* (not sold as a bundle)
Butterfly Gala (SNEAK Peek!)
Paper
Very Vanilla Thick 8 1/2″ x 51/2″,4″x 5 1/4″(x2)

Beautiful Promenade with Silver

Hey Guys!

Happy New Year!  Hope you had a great Christmas and New Year.  I’m excited to see what the New Year Brings, are you?

Here is another card that I saw on Pinterest that I HAD to copy! The idea came from Robyn Cardon, I added the ribbon/changed the color, but the rest of the idea came from her!

This is my first time using the New Lovely Lipstick in the In Colors. I really like it!  The picture makes it look more like Melon Mambo, but it has more red than pink to it.

I used Silver Embossing powder to make it pop, and added the ribbon.

Bees, don’t you just love bees?!

Hey Guys!

Today I am sharing with you a card that I saw on Pinterest by Monica Gale.  I only changed up the yellow behind the ‘HI’, so technically I CASE’d it (Copy and Share Everything).

I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it and HAD to make it!  LOVE when that happens, it really gets my creative juices flowing!

I used the Large Letter framelits to cut out the HI, then placed some of the Delightfully Detailed Laser cut behind the panel, added dimensionals and then had the Mango Melody behind.  Colored the Bee  using the Mango Melody  Blend!

Here are the particulars for this card:

Christmas Card #15 Black and White Farmhouse Christmas

Hey Guys!

I love when I design a card and it turns out great!  I get so worried when I am designing on my own, I ‘think’ it turns out good, but have to ask everyone I know what they think, just to be sure!

Here is the card:

I love how this looks like a photo with a tree on the side. I used the Colorful Seasons Die to get the scalloped edge, I cut both the white and the Silver Glimmer to go behind it.  In person, this is really pretty and shiny!  Basic Gray is on the inside to offset the Silver, it is a great look!  I love how stamping the house and tree in the ‘picture’ is an easy way to use this stamp set, and just cut out the tree and your card is just about ready!

Here are the specifics for this card:

Supplies:

Stamp set: Farmhouse Christmas, Star of Light, Winter Woods
Cardstock: Thick Whisper White 4” x 11”, Whisper White 3 ½” x 3 ¾”, 3” x 3 ½”, 3 ¼” x 3” (for black and white house),
Silver Glimmer 3 3/8” x 3 3/16”, 4” x1 ½”, Basic Gray 4” x 5 3/8”
Inks: Basic Gray, Shaded Spruce, Memento Black
Misc: Big Shot, Seasonal Layers thinlits, Dimensionals, Metallic Pearls, sponges, Wink of Stella

This is one of my favorites that I designed! I hope you like it too!!

Below are pictures of the supplies used for this card, click on any picture and you will be taken to my OnLine Store! I would love to be your Demonstrator if you live in the US.

Christmas Card #15 Farmhouse Christmas

Hey Guys!

This card was made after looking at two different cards using this set on Pinterest by two different people.  I loved the idea of having snow in the backyard and the truck in the front, plus using the die as a mailbox.  I added the ‘door’ on the mailbox, which made me so tickled with myself!  LOL

 

I uses a LOT of blends, which are listed below.  If you would like the dimensions and particulars for this card here they are:

Supplies
Stamp sets:
Farmhouse Christmas Bundle, Merry Christmas to all
Cardstock: Poppy Parade 5 ½” x 8 ½”, scraps for bows, Basic Black 5 3/8” x 4 1/8”, Whisper White 5 ¼” x 4 (x2),
5 ¼” x 2 ¾” (trimmed for snow), 1 ¾” x 4 ½”, 5 ¼” x 4 for stamping house, tree, truck, Wood Textures DSP 3” x 1 ½”
Inks: Memento Black, Versamark, Balmy Blue, Old Olive, Poppy Parade, Blends: Poppy Parade combo, Light Mango Melody, Old Olive combo, Soft Suede combo, Black Lt, Smoky Slate combo
Misc: White EP, Embossing Buddy, Dimensionals, Foam Adhesive strips, Fine tip Glue pen, Big Shot, Wink of Stella

This card is layered, the snow in the back only go on the bottom half of card, and if you look the fence is popped away from the base of the card.

I hope you like this card as much as I do!  We made this in my Christmas card class at the beginning of October!  Everyone loved making it, and I look forward to my other classes.
