Sweet Centers Birthday Card


I absolutely loved creating this card using the Sweet Centers Stamp Set and sweet treat cups! I've been dying to create a flower with it, and the Raspberry Suite Color Inspiration Challenge was the perfect motivation to get to work!
I filled the cup with green glitter and put an acetate back on it so the recipient can see through to the sentiment on the inside of the card.
Before cutting out and applying the petals, I stamped a set of petals in Close to Cocoa on the card base and the leaves in between in Glorious Green. I added little loops of hemp twine and used dimensionals to "lift" the top petals up (In Melon Mambo).
Overall, I just LOVE how this card turned out... and I think I'll be making a few more in some different color combos!
Stamp Sets Used: Sweet Centers, On Your Birthday


Bird on a Branch Birthday Card

My favorite color scheme... blues and browns!

Butterfly Card

I Love this card I made using the Butterfly Punch and some retired DSP and in-colors!


Thanksgiving Double Slider Card

Just a fun little Thanksgiving card I did a while back using this Double Slider Card tutorial from SCS. :o)
For the leaves, I stamped the leaf image in Chocolate Chip then colored in the leaves with the Versamark pen and used my Stampin' Pastels to add various shades of color.
Supplies Used: (Stamps) Autumn Splendor, Grateful Greetings (holiday mini); Autumn Splendor DSP (Holiday mini); Versamark Pen; Stampin Pastels


October Club Projects

Here are the Thanksgiving projects we made this month in my clubs!
This Thanksgiving Card uses 3 of this year's in-colors which I feel are perfect for fall-themed projects: Crushed Curry, Dusty Durango and Soft Suede.
This card is so easy to make, yet so versatile! I grabbed the idea from SCS - you can view the tutorial here and a whole gallery of cards made like this here. I used the "Rock N Roll" technique for the two images on the front.
Stamps used: Falling Leaves, Wandering Words (from holiday mini)

This cute little place card was tons of fun, and the Turkey guy is made completely out of Stampin' Up! punches!

Stamps Used: Falling Leaves, Just Perfect Alphabet

And here's a pic of the guide I provided at the tables to make assembling this dude a lot easier!


A few more Halloween goodies...

Here's a couple more GREAT Halloween goody ideas!
This first one is not mine! One of my club members, Michelle, brought these for each one of the ladies in the group! I just LOVE them!!! It really hurt to open mine and eat those delicious oreos inside, too! My son, however, had no problem with that part. :o)
Primary Supplies used: Stamps: Eat Drink and be Scary, Batty for You; Big Shot Top Note Die; 1-1/4" Basic Black striped Grosgrain Ribbon; Cast-a-Spell DSP.
For this next one, I just HAD to find another way to use the Sweet Treat Cups and came up for this idea for the "Thank You's" that will be going in the club orders this month. (Oops... sorry for ruining the surprise!) :o)
I stamped the spider on top of the cup and on the cello bag in staz-on ink, and also wrapped some black twine around the outside of the cup for an added touch.
The topper is made out a lengthwise folded top note die (with a strip of Cast-a-Spell DSP on it). To make the sweet treat cup fit, I had to trim a bit off the top and bottom lip.
Primary Supplies used: Stamps: Eat Drink and be Scary, From the Crypt; Big Shot Top Note Die; Black Twine; Cast-a-Spell DSP; Sweet Treat Cup
