Birthday Card...

2nd Post for the day, using same Sketch Layout but with a different look! 

I've used the Faux Tiles Technique, except I've used Clear Embossing Powder,

instead of Glossy Cardstock.

Want to learn this technique, why not contact me for details when a class is available

All the Embossing Powders from Stampin’ Up!® would have to the best on the market - you can't beat them.  Check them out - Page 154 of the current Idea Book & Catalogue

Another...

G'day Stampers,

I've been playing with Abode & think I am finally getting somewhere with the program.  I suppose it helps to have the book, but hey, who reads those things!  I still have a litte way to go, but....

I've used "Wagon Full of Fun" - Mini-Catalogue - again.  I may have said it previously, but this set has so much potential..... 

A great little set if you are new to Stampin’ Up!® and not sure what set to begin with.

I didn't start out making a baby card, but am happy with the end result.  You decide for yourselves!

Card - Closed

Card - Open

Supplies -

Stamp Set - Wagon Full of Fun, Whimsical Words

Ink - So Saffron, Basic Black, VersaMark

Card Stock - Whisper White, So Saffron, Brocade Blue - Textured

DSP - Baja Breeze

Punches - Photo Corners, Large Oval, Scallop Oval

Accessories - Snail Adhesive, 2-Way Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds,

Hope you enjoy.  Until tmw

Pink, Pink & More Pink...

I am trying very hard to get back into the swing of things, but it is not working that great.  Please bear with me for the next couple of months or so............

I received a couple of little stamp sets today & so of course I had to have a little play & did a very simple easy 5 minute card to show you this lovely lovely SU greeting!  Best of all, it is FREE from SU when you spend over $100! Not hard to do.
Get in and earn your FREE stamp sets while Sale-a-Bration is on!

Supplies -

Stamp Set - Whimiscal Words

Card Stock - Whisper White, Pink Pirouette

Stamp Pads - Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette

DSP - Pink Pirouette

Accessories - Anywhere Glue, SU Pastels, SU Sponges

Non-SU - Embossing Folder

Have I told you lately how much I love the new SU Series Designer Series Paper, Page 135.  Just in case you missed it, I love working with this paper!  No matter what you make, this DSP always comes up looking so fresh & pretty!

I've stamped the Greeting in "Riding Hood Red", torn "Whisper White", ensuring that I leave a small edge.  I then sponged "Pretty-in-Pink" from the "SU Pastels" to add a bit of hightlight to the torn edge.

Enjoy!
