Happy Birthday

While I am not really a horse person, I really like the images in the Let it Ride stamp set and know a few people that would like cards made with it so I added it to my wish list awhile ago.  

I paired it with the Crackle Paint background stamp and Itty bitty birthdays stamp for these cards. The horses were colored in with Stampin' Blends and I added some linen thread as an accent as well.

Supplies:

Crackle Paint, Let it Ride, Itty Bitty Birthdays

Mossy Meadow, Sahara Sand, Soft Suede, Memento Black ink

Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, Gray Granite, Night of Navy card stock

linen thread

Classic label punch

Beach Chair

I was asked to make a few retirement cards recently and I thought I would use the beach chair from the retired Colorful Seasons stamp set.  The branches and flowers to the side of the card are from the same stamp set...

My sentiment is from Well Said and I added a piece of Pressed Petals designer series paper to the side of the mat as well.

Well Said, Colorful Seasons

Bermuda Bay, Rococo Rose, Soft Suede, Pacific Point ink

July Stamp Club

This time around I chose to use several different designer and specialty papers for our projects - Noble Peacock specialty paper, Pressed Petals designer series paper and Mosaic Mood specialty paper.  

The first card uses the Noble Peacock specialty paper and the Tasteful Textures stamp set.

The second card has some Pressed Petals designer series paper and the background is embossed with the Brick and Mortal folder.  

Finally, the layout uses the Mosaic Mood specialty paper along with the Tasteful Textures stamp set and Tailored Tag punch.

Smile

I love the colors in the Noble Peacock specialty paper as well as the embossed patterns.  I chose to use one of the patterns for this cards featuring the Beauty Abounds stamp set and Layering squares framelits.

I die cut some Smoky Slate card stock with the Layering Squares framelits for the top layer on the card.  The sentiment is from the retired Colorful Seasons stamp set and I added a few basic rhinestones for accents as well.
