PPA178 Happy Big Day!

I do like these colors together.  I first thought of the different DSP that comes in these colors and then remembered I needed a birthday card coming up for one of my 9th grade girls that I teach in Sunday School. So I knew I would do birthday but did I want come up with my own layout or find one?  I decide to make my own and started grabbing stamps sets and this was what came together.

Have an awesome Thursday and thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Card Boxes

I made these boxes for the ladies that come to my card classes to carry home their Christmas cards this week.  Easy box design with vanilla bottom and Lucky Limeade card stock on top.  Great way to use up old retired card stock.  For the bow I used retired DSP.  Love using the SU! bow die.  But what I am most proud of is printing some tags from MDS (My Digital Studio).  Mostly because I do not use this resource like I should.  I layered on a die and put ribbon on top to make a tag.  I attached to box with small glue dot some the recipient could take off and use on another gift box or bag.
Have a wonderful Wednesday and thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Card by Patti

Awesome Christmas card by my friend Patti Carbonell.  She first stamped the card using Coastal Cabana for the sentiment and the tree but decided too light so stamped over with black for sentiment and emboss in sliver on the tree.  It gave an awesome effect which can see so much better in person.  I also love the layout and bling at top!
Hope you have a wonderful Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!

Hello Lovely File Folder Card

I made this file folder card to hold a gift card for my college girl!  I will see her this Friday..Yay!  I made is one with a front "pocket" by making the front panel lower and taping the sides to form a pocket or pouch.  Great idea for a gift card or a photo or just a message.  

Have a lovely Monday and thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Cheer File Folder Card

I saw these on Patty Bennett's blog at pattystamps.typepad.com.  She has a how-to-make video and many different samples.  My stamp club met a week ago and made some really awesome ones for birthday, Halloween and Christmas.  I used the Envelope Punch Board to make the tabs like on a file folder.  I plan to place a gift card inside.

FMS110 Warmth and Wonder

This was an interesting sketch this week.  I knew I would do Christmas card and my Warmth and Wonder was laying near by.  It had three elements for three squares.  I then thought about my star punch and glimmer paper!  It came together easy after that.  

Hope you have a wonderful Saturday and thanks for stopping by!

Just Because

This is card I made at my friend Patti's house.  We cased from the annual SU! catalog on page 203.  It really is a nice layout that I plan to use again.  I do not have this stamp set but it will work with the many flower sets I do have. What I love about this card is it is colorful but only using Whisper White card stock.
Hope you have a fabulous Friday and Happy first day of November!
