Snowman Birthday Card

After making my Glitter Snowman Birthday Card, I decided to come up with a similar design using the same image stamp and paper line. I ended up making 6 of these cards.

The patterned papers are from BoBunny's Snowfall 6 x 6 paper pad and the cardstock is Bazzill Avalanche & Truffle and Stampin' Up Not Quite Navy.

To embellish the card, I used American Craft Denim Embossing Powder, We R Memory Keepers Neutral Painted Brads, Bazzill Mini Brads, Stampin' Up Whisper White 1/4 inch Grosgrain Ribbon and Prima Marketing White Flowers.

I used the Zutter Distrezz-it-All to rough up the edges of my papers and the Deckled Edge Classic Oval Large & Labels Eighteen Nestabilities for my die-cuts.

The snowman image is from Kraftin' Kimmie - A Cup of Cozy Wishes!, the "Happy Birthday" is from CTMH's Happy Birthday stamp set and the inside sentiment is from CC Designs Best Birthday Wishes stamp set.

Copic Markers used: B95, B97, BG72, BG78, C00, E23, E57 & E59.

Glitter Snowman Birthday Card

I have to take a break from my personal challenge of using the SEI Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack. I need to get my Valentine's Day cards & Spring Workshops for the store designed by the end of this weekend. So, keep an eye out. I have at least two more card designs before my personal challenge is complete.

I had a lot of fun making this card. One, I used a stamp that is normally used for Christmas cards to make a Birthday card. Two, most of this card was made from the leftover pieces from my January Calendar Page. Three, it was made for a very good friend of mine who loves glitz. Four, I normally have a very difficult time with adding glitz to my projects, but this time it turned out quite well....if I do say so myself.

The patterned papers are from BoBunny Snowfall Cut Outs 12 x 12 paper, BoBunny Snowfall 6 x 6 paper pad and Basic Grey Little Black Dress 6 x 6 paper pad. The cardstock is Bazzill Truffle and the Sky Blue Glitter paper is from Best Creations Inc.

The tools I used are the Petite Scalloped Ovals Large, Petite Ovals Small & Petite Ovals Large Nestabilities and one of Bazzill's Stitchz Border Templates.

To embellish the card, I used Turquoise & Copper Stickles and We R Memory Keepers Mermaid Glitter Fancy Floss.

The snowman stamp is from Kraftin' Kimmie - A Cup of Cozy Wishes!, the sentiment on the front of the card is from CC Designs Best Birthday Wishes stamp set, the "Happy" on the inside of the card is from CC Designs Big Words stamp set and the "Birthday" is from CC Designs Handy Additions stamp set.

Copic Markers used: B95, B97, BG72, BG78, C00, E23, E57 & E59.

Happy Valentine's Day Again 2012!

Here is the other Valentine's Day card that I was able to make from the same paper pack as on my previous posts. I was able to make another 6 of these cards.

The patterned papers are from SEI's Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack and I used Bazzill Grenadine, Tropical & Avalanche cardstock.

The ribbon is from American Crafts and the brads are from Doodlebug.

The die-cut on the front of the card was done with CTMH's Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge. The sentiment on the front of the card is from CTMH's February Stamp of the Month - Thoughtful Tidings and stamped with Stampin' Up Cool Caribbean Ink. Due to the fact that I used the decorative layer, the die-cut was cut out at 1 1/4 inch instead of 1 inch like recommended on the stamp set.

The inside sentiment is from Kraftin' Kimmie's Holiday Sentiments stamp set.

Happy Valentine's Day 2012!

Well, I love this design so much that I have decided that it is going to be my design for this year's Valentine's Day & hopefully my Easter cards as well.

I showed you three card fronts to show the three different types of ribbons I used and two card insides to show you how the different scraps of patterned papers from the front of the card look on the inside of the card. I was able to make a total of 6 of these cards.

I used SEI's Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack with Bazzill Berrylicious & Bluff cardstock.

To embellish the card, I used Die Cuts with a View brads and Stampin' Up 3/8" Red Taffeta Ribbon, 3/8" Calypso Coral Ruffled Ribbon and their stitched ribbon from an old line. The red taffeta ribbon is from Stampin' Up's 2010-2011 catalogue. I don't have a copy of that catalogue any more, so I don't know the exact name of this ribbon.

The die-cut on the front of the card was done with CTMH's Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge. The sentiment on the front of the card is from CTMH's February Stamp of the Month - Thoughtful Tidings and stamped with Stampin' Up Melon Mambo Ink. Due to the fact that I used the decorative layer, the die-cut was cut out at 1 1/4 inch instead of 1 inch like recommended on the stamp set.

The inside sentiment is from Kraftin' Kimmie's Holiday Sentiments stamp set.

Anniversary Card

My personal challenge continues. I was able to make 4 of these Anniversary Cards for my stash from the same paper pack used on the cards in the previous two posts.

The patterned papers are from SEI's Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack and I used Bazzill's Mud Pie & Malted Milk cardstock with Worldin Silver Ore Petallics Paper.

To embellish the card, I used Stampendous Silver Flower Chain Stickers, Stampendous Pearlustre Moonstone Embossing Powder & Miscellaneous Square Pearlized brads.

The front sentiment stamp came from CC Designs Get Well Sentiments stamp set and the stamps on the inside of the card came from CTMH's Party Pennant stamp set.

Birthday Wishes Again

Good old stand by!

With the leftover pieces of patterned paper from my card on my previous post, I was able to make one of these Birthday Wishes cards to add to my stash.

I used SEI's Corinne 6 x 6 paper pad with Bazzill Lily Pond & Sea Salt cardstock.

To embellish the card I used We R Memory Keepers Sew Ribbon Aqua - Misty Morn ribbon and brads from my stash.

The stamps are from CC Designs Great Greetings stamp set.

Here I begin my new challenge. Use one whole 6 x 6 patterned paper pack to make a variety of cards. I am almost done. So, far I have made Birthday cards, Valentine's Day cards, Anniversary cards and I have an idea for some Thinking of You cards to finish off the pack of paper. I was able to make a total of 4 of these cards for my stash.

I used SEI's Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack with Bazzill Lily Pond & Sea Salt cardstock.

To embellish the card, I used We R Memory Keepers Sew Ribbon Aqua - Misty Morn ribbon and Kaiser Craft Ice Green Pearls. I also used EK Success' Medium Corner Rounder and Labels 17 Nestability.

The cat image stamp is Mavis has a Daisy from Stamping Bella. The sentiment stamps are from CC Designs Critter Sentiments stamp set and stamped with Stampin' Up Old Olive Ink.
