Milestone Moments Birthday
My daughter recently had a birthday and I wanted a fun card for her. She always saves the cards I make her so I wanted to add lots of elements to it.
For stamp sets, I chose Milestone Moments, Better Together and Playful Backgrounds, pairing them with Cherry Cobbler and Soft suede ink.
On the inside I added a strip of the same pattern of designer series paper from the Be Merry collection as an accent after doing some more stamping.
The banners are created using the triple banner punch and I embossed my layer of Soft Suede card stock with the Perfect Polka Dots folder. Of course a 12 year old needs some bling too so I added some basic rhinestones and bakers twine.
Supplies:
Milestone Moments, Playful Backgrounds, Better Together
Cherry Cobbler, Soft suede ink
Cherry Cobbler, Soft Suede, Whisper White card stock
Cherry Cobbler bakers twine
Banner triple punch
Perfect Polka dots folder
Basic rhinestones

December Stamp Club Projects
In the spirit of the clearance rack and year end sale - this time around I chose to use some retired items for our stamp club projects. I used several patterns of retired designer series paper in both the layout and the stockings and also a few retired embellishments on the stockings.
Even though the layout uses some Christmas themed paper, it could be used for lots of different occasions.
I wanted to do something more than just cards this time so I put together a gift tag and a pillow box stocking using the Trim your stockings dies.
The card uses the Seasonal layers thinlits and Colorful Seasons stamp set along with some Wood textures designer series paper and the everyday label punch.

Half Full Birthday
This card just joined my Stamp A Stack rotation and it showcases the Half Full stamp set and the Stampin' Blends. I used Old Olive and Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends to color in the wine bottle and then cut it out with the paper snips. This is usually the step that most people don't enjoy - myself included - but it is just one piece to cut and I wanted the bottle to pop on the card.
The background is embossed with the Oh My Stars folder and I chose to use some retired designer series paper as an accent piece to break up the Tempting Turquoise embossed layer.
Supplies:
Half Full, Sunshine Wishes
Memento Black ink
Tempting Turquoise, Watermelon Wonder,
Whisper White card stock
Stampin' Blends
retired designer series paper
