Thinking of you Global Design Project!

Hey there stampers,

I have a quick and simple card for you that I created and want to submit to the challenge over at Global Design Project.  They have a fun challenge this week where the theme is nature!

 

Now, if you haven't been to their blog to see all of the wonderful cards using this inspiration - you HAVE to get on over the and take a look!   Just click right here.

 But first, the card I wanted to share...

I wanted the focus of this card to be the beautiful patterned paper.  I love the colours and the beautiful flowers. 

The colours are Night of Navy and Crumb Cake - perfect together.  I added a flower using the Flower Medallion punch and 7/8" Scalloped Circle punch.  My greeting is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.  

So, if you would like to make a really quick card, just let your favourite patterned paper steal the show!

Thanks for stopping by!  

Happy Stampin'

Spring Birthday with Global Design Project!

Hey there,

I have a birthday card to share with you today.  I made it using CASE the Designer challenge over at Global Design Project.  They have a really fun card from Michelle Last to CASE.  Here is her adorable card!

 

 Super cute, eh?  The colours, the darling little butterfly and did you notice the shaker? I decided to CASE the layout.  But also tried for super cute!  :)  I hope you can see the resemblance...

I started with the DSP and picked the other colours based on it.  I love lots of layers on a card so layered some yellow cardstock between the cardbase and the DSP.   I love using the tag topper punch to create a tag for the front of a card - it can be used as a bookmark afterwards.   

LOVE this little greeting.  It is from the Sale-a-bration stampset Hello.

Be sure to stop on over to Global Design Project to see all of the great creations CASEing Michelle's card.

Happy Stampin'

Work of Art

Hello my stampin' friends!

Glad you stopped by today!  The card I have to show you today is one I have been wanting to try for a while now - do you have a card like that on your list?

I have seen different versions of it online in many places and I just loved it!  So it is a CASE (create and share everything), but I am not sure who to give the credit to for the original creation.  

I have been waiting - not sure why - for the opportunity to use this new set from the Annual Catalogue.....Work of Art!  I have seen SO many great uses for these wonderful images!  I think it has to be one of my favourite stampsets!

  

The tip I have to offer for this card, is to start with the bottom colour first.  For some reason, I was able to fit all the colours on the card when I started at the bottom and not the top - yep this was my second try.  ;)

I chose the colours from the brights collection so there wasn't any stress to match colours - I love that about our colour collections!

I hope you like my version of the card.

Black and White Birthday

Hello there!  Glad you stopped by!

I have a black and white card inspired by the sketch over at Create with Connie and Mary!  Make sure you hop on over to see all of the cards they have created!

For my card I stated with a black card base and layered with some newsprint DSP.  I used my ovals framelits to create a layered oval using black and Very Vanilla. 

My sentiment is from Bring on the Cake!  I just love this set - perfect for any birthday!  I used one of the flowers from the stampset Flower Shop and stamped a little flower half on and half off in yellow.  I used the coordinating Pansy punch and punched a So Saffron flower and used my 7/8" Scalloped Circle punch to give me a center.  I wanted my flower to resemble a sunflower.  I added three little strips of black cardstock to the corner to follow the sketch - I liked how this card turned out. 

I hope you enjoyed my version of the sketch.

Happy Stampin'
