Odds and Ends

These cards were made using a bunch of pieces in the scrap box - the sentiment layer I had already stamped and not used previously.  These pieces were from the retired Cupcakes and carousels embellishment kit.  

Next I added random pieces of designer series paper that I had - Wood Textures, Share what you love and Frosted florals.  On each one I also used a Stitched shape framelit as an accent layer and place some candy dots on a couple of them as well.

Supplies:

Special Celebrations

Early Espresso ink

Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Blackberry Bliss card stock

candy dots

Wood Textures dsp

Share what you love specialty paper

Frosted florals specialty paper

Stitched Shapes framelits

Ovals framelits

Gluten Free

One more sample with the Birthday Wit stamp set!  This is the last sentiment in the set (along with a plain Happy Birthday) and I added a few Sale-a-bration items to go along with it.

The designer series paper is called Bubbles and Fizz and the ribbon is a pack called the Shimmer ribbon pack - both of which are Sale-a-bration free items that you can earn in just a few days!

I also added a little bow from the retired Cupcakes and Carousels embellishment kit with a Glitter enamel dot in the center.

Balloon Congratulations

I have a couple more graduation cards to share with you today using the Balloon Celebrations stamp set and the Cupcakes and Carousels embellishment kit.  There is just a slight variation between the two cards - the ink color and images that are not balloons. I used stars and Perfect Plum ink on the one on the left and the swirls and Wisteria Wonder ink on the right.

The cards could be used for any sort of occasion by changing the sentiment or another reason to congratulate as well.  I added a little bow from the Cupcakes and Carousels embellishment kit and a glitter enamel dot as accents.

Supplies:

Balloon Celebration

So Saffron, Pool Party, Soft Sky, Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum ink

You're So Sweet

There are always some designer series paper collections that I wish would stick around for a little longer and the Tasty Treats specialty paper is one of them.  Unfortunately, it will be gone soon so I wanted to share another project idea using it.

I started with a jar stamped and die cut on Whisper White card stock, then I stamped the same jar on the specialty paper and used my paper snips to cut out only the inside and added it to the first jar.  A little Peekaboo Peach ruched ribbon, a bow from the Cupcakes and Carousels embellishment kit and a retired rhinestone completed the jar.

The sentiment is from the You're So Sweet stamp set, I just used part of one of the images instead of all of it.
