Too Kind Card

Here is another take on this stamp set. Just can't get enough of this set and the Gingham Gardens dsp, or and also the Deco Framelits.

I used the Scallop Trim Border on the right edge of the dsp. for this one.

5 Way Flower

Here is another stamp you will be seeing a lot of......

For the flower you stamp it 5 times and punch out with these Scalloped Circle Punches:

 2 3/8", #118874
1 3/4", #119854
1 1/4", #127811
7/8", #129404
and the flower from Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, #118309
Use dimensionals in between each layer.

You can see the dimension on this view. I used Soft Sky and Daffodil Delight.

This one I used Strawberry Slush and Crisp Cantaloupe.

This one is Daffodil Delight and Soft Sky.

Too Kind

I love this stamp set, and you will be seeing a lot of cards made with it too. This is one of the cards we did today in My quick & Cute Card Class.

You could just about any sentiment for this card. I used several new items. Deco Labels Framelits, Washi Tape, Clay buttons, Gingham Wheel and the Too Kind Stamp Set.

Here is a side view. I got my inspiration from Mary Brown. I love her work.
I tried to post pictures of the stamp set and framelits and Blogger kept moving my photos where I didn't want them. So I will give you just the order numbers.

Happy Birthday Jen!

Today my daughter turns 32 years old today! I feel so old......This is the card I made for her. So mad I didn't take any photos last night.....

I love this stamp set, Cycle Celebrations. Do you see where I used the Washi Tape? I took a piece of Whisper White cardstock and laid the Washi Tape at a diagonal, then punched with the Decorative Label Punch. Did the same thing with the butterfly.

I am loving the Deco Labels Framelits too!

Washi Tape! Have You Tried It?

I totally cased this card from Barb Mulikin. I am finding cards I like and putting them in my Card Board on Pinterest. Sure does make it easier to find it later. Thank you to Patty Bennett for that FABULOUS idea!
Ok, so here is my card.

How fun is this card with the Washi Tape and the Flags. I haven't purchased any of the new buttons......yet so I made mine with the Simply Pressed Clay and the Button Mold. To color the Button, I used a Aqua Pen and my Melon Mambo Ink pad. Then added the bow with White Baker's Twine.

Joy Fold Card

I learned how to make this card fold from Kim Wong. We did one in our Shoe Box Swap a couple of weeks ago. 

This was a hard card to photograph. Its like two cards in one.

Here is the card "opened" up. Let me give you instructions.

Here are the dimensions:

Daffodil Delight, 8 1/2" x 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"
Stripped dsp (Gingham Garden), 2 3/4" x 4"
Flower dsp (Gingham Garden), 4" x 5 1/4"
Island Indigo, 8" x 3" score at 4"
Whisper White, you need 2 of these, 2 3/4" x 3 3/4"

You will also need:

Boutique Blossom (single stamp, available until 7-31-13)
A Round Array stamp set (Love this stamp set)
Island Indigo, Daffodil Delight & Pear Pizzazz markers (for the flower)
7/8" & 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punches
1" Circle Punch
Dimensionals
 Once you have everything all cut it goes together really fast. For the flower I stamped once on the 2 3/4" x 3 3/4" Whisper White and then again on a scrap. Cut out just the center and popped up with a dimensional.
 Don't forget to sponge around the edges of both the Whisper White pieces.

Mosaic Madness Meets Label Love!

I think I love every piece of the Gingham Garden dsp. Here is a simple card we did in my Stamp Club.

See how I added some Washi Tape down the center....love it!

After punching out the Mosaic pieces I popped them up with dimensionals.

It's a Wrap! Thank You Card

I know a lot of kids are graduating and thought this would be a fun card to give a teacher. I hadn't used It's a Wrap in a long time and I love how Stampin' Up! made the wrap into a banner on page 31 of the new Catalog.  I also LOVE the new Banner Greetings (Hostess set) in the new Catalog. 

I'm so glad that this dsp, (Polka Dot Parade) wasn't discontinued. Its perfect for this card.

You can see I cut each of wraps out and attached them with  dimensionals.
