Party time

This birthday card is for my mom, but no one is supposed to know that she is having her birthday this week. Shhhhhh.

I love the Let's Polka paper collections from Lawn Fawn and thought it would be fun to use different patterns from Mon Amie in non-traditional ways. Pink grass and a cream sky look good to me. :)

Colorful chaos

Hi!

Using the My Favorite Things Party Patterns stamp set, I created an any-occasion card that highlights my two favorite colors—purple and green—in both the pattern and the matting. Regardless of the colorful chaos that I created as my card background, this is a simpler design for me. I didn't use markers or watercolor, only ink.


Word dies are so awesome. My favorites are from Mama Elephant and Lawn Fawn. :) I used MFT's Silver Shine card stock for "smile." It really looks like embossing powder, which is cool.


I used the flash on the last photo to really show sparkle on the shapes where I added clear Wink of Stella. I love it!

Day brightened

Hello!

On my card today, I used three of the new My Favorite Things paper packs, and I finally got around to using the Sunday Stroll stamps and dies from Mama Elephant. I am probably three or four releases behind on using new products. Yikes!


I wanted to focus all the dimension on my card on "you." This may be the first time I didn't use foam tape! So, I cut out the You die from Avery Elle several times using two My Favorite Things shades of pink card stock.


The dimension is really obvious in the next photo. It looks really cool!


I love the new Storybook 1 die from Pretty Pink Posh. There are so many possibilities! I may make a comic with some superhero stamps in the future. Can't wait to see the other dies in the upcoming Storybook series.
