Six new cards!

Hello again!  Just popped in to share a half-dozen new cards.  These were sent as part of a gift to my dad and stepmom.  I like to stock them with handmade cards (and they like to tease me that they won't be sending them back to me!) 

Thanks - I love being spoiled.

Supplies: All supplies by Stampin' Up.  Flower punch from the "Itty Bitty Punch Pack," stamp from "Afterthoughts."  

Happy Birthday! 

Supplies used:  Border punch from Fiskars.  Swiss Dot embossing folder from Cuttlebug.  All other supplies from Stampin' Up; flower stamp from "Button Buddies," sentiment stamp from "Something to Celebrate."  Isn't the Daffodil Delight/Baja Breeze combo amazing? 

S{ick}?

Supplies used:  All supplies from Stampin' Up; sentiment stamp from "Word Play." 

PARTY!  Happy Birthday:

All supplies from Stampin' Up.  Sentiment from Itty Bitty Banners (and matching framelit.)  All other stamps from "Owl Occasions."  A lot of work went in to this card (and my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig saw a lot of mileage!) but the result is well worth it!

Lollipop card:  Cardstock by Bazzil; embossing folder by Sizzix; ribbon by Stampin' Up; twine by The Twinery.  I used a Gluber from Cosmo Cricket to create the lollipop.  

Sweet Baby:  

Supplies used:  All supplies from Stampin' Up except microbeads, from Walmart.  Rattle stamp from "Button Buddies" and sentiment from "Itty Bitty Banners."

More CASEd cards!

A few more CASE'd cards to share with you!

The first is a flowerpot card, but my flowerpot when drastically wrong somewhere along the line.  It's supposed to be open at the top and the flowers are connected to the card and it slots into the pot.  Not so much.  Mine was a disaster (twice, if we're being honest) and I ended up giving up and just gluing the whole thing to a card base.  Still pretty cute, if I do say so!  Check out the tutorial here - maybe you can figure it out! 

This "Mr. & Mrs." wedding card is really simple and pretty - a pretty similar knock-off of the original with a different banner, embossing folder, and ribbon.  

These next two cards might be two of my favourites!  They're an adorable take on the classic baby ring stacker and made entirely with scraps.  There are FOUR babies due in our family in 2012, so I'll be going through a few of these!  The original was done by Lisa Lara but unfortunately, I'm unable to link to it - I found it on Pinterest but the source link doesn't work.  Hate it when that happens!

The last one is a CASE from an unknown source; again, I found it on Pinterest and the source link was broken.  I wish I could give credit where credit is due, because this card is GREAT!  

Supplies as follows:  

Flower pot:  Cardstock by Recollections (Grey, Black) and Stampin' Up (Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Lucky Limeade.)  Patterned Paper by October Afternoon.  Flower Die from Sizzix.  Embossing folder (on the leaves) from Sizzix.  Brads from Recollections.  Scallop border punch from Stampin' Up.

Mr. and Mrs.:  All supplies from Stampin' Up.  Colours used are Very Vanilla (Cardstock) and Crumb Cake (Ink and Ribbon.)

Ring Stackers:  Cardstock from Stampin' Up (Crumb Cake and Early Espresso.)  Patterned paper from various sources.  Woodgrain stamp from Hero Arts.  Bakers Twine from The Twinery.  Stamp, rub-on, and tag punch from Stampin' Up.

S(ick):  Patterned paper from unknown source.  Border punch by Fiskars.  All other supplies from Stampin' Up (colours used are Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, and Pool Party.)  

See you next time! 

More "Stash" Cards

A few more cards made using some of my stash. I have a LOT of patterned paper so it feels nice to start putting a dent into it.

The first two cards were made with stamps from the Kim Hughes Collection by Cornish Heritage Farms. I love the little germs! On the first card, the patterned paper is from "Backyard" by American Crafts. The ribbon on both cards is American Crafts. The dry embossing on the second card is the Candycane folder by Cuttlebug.

This card was made with my stash of "The Menagerie" from Dream Street Papers.  I put some diamond glaze on the heart to give it some depth and shine.

I love this card! Super cute for a little guy, I think.  The stamps are from Recollections and the patterned paper is from Scenic Route.  The image was coloured with RoseArt pencil crayons.

Happy Tuesday!
