Springtime Foils

Here's a fun card I made for all the top performers on my team, the Nacho Average Stampers!  I used the Springtime Foils Specialty Paper and brayer it with Berry Burst classic ink.  I was so happy with the results!

Here are all the things I used to make this card:


Hold on to Hope

Club0305

This is such a pretty set!  I love the crosses you can make with the framelits!  I added tiny pearls to this one for some added interest!  The designer paper is from the Bubbles & Fizz package--only two more days to get it!!

 


Bubble Over!

This is such a fun set!  I need to pull it out more often and play with it!  I love that it coordinates with the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Paper -- makes it even easier to create fun cards!  But, remember -- you can only get the designer paper until March 31st!  So, don't delay and miss out!

This was one of the six cards we made for my club meeting in March!  Our next one is April 15th -- if you'd like to join us, contact me today!  We love guests!!

Here are all the fun toys I used to make this card (I made an oops! and used a retired stamp for the stars--I'm sorry!)

 


Eclectic Expressions

This is one of the new Sale-a-bration items that was added this month!  It's a fun set--love the backgrounds you can make with it!  I paired it with the Myths & Magic Specialty Washi Tape!  Imagine--glitter tape!!  :-)

The measurements for the card base:  4 1/4" x 11".  Score at 2 1/2" and 5 1/2".  Then, just fold in half, then fold at the 2 1/2" mark to create the pocket for the gift card!  Super easy, but super cute!  For the rhinestones on the front, I just colored them with the Stampin' Blends!  You can have rhinestones in lots of colors now!

Oops! A day late!!

Freshly Made Sketches is one of my favorite challenge sites!  They have great sketches and the design team is amazing!  So, I worked on playing along with their current sketch this weekend.  I had the card made, but didn't get a chance to take pictures until yesterday -- and when I went to post, I realized the challenge had ended! haha!  Oh well -- here's a cute card anyway:

Isn't that panda cute!!  And, yes, I did "fussy-cut" the panda!  It wasn't too bad, although I did make several of these!  Do you have a birthday coming up?  Leave me a comment--I'll send you one!

Some Sketch Fun!

It's been awhile since I played along with any challenges!  I saw this sketch on Fab Friday, and decided to give it a go!

I came up with a super simple card, but I love it!  I really like the glimmer paper words!
