Thankful For Fall!

Hello Fall!  

Yes, it's definitely here... at least here in the Fraser Valley!  I love the rain... it's so cozy!  And so, because it's fall, and because I love that... I am showing you a card that honours this thankful season!  

I made it using a retired stamp set, Always Thankful.  I love it and hope to use it some more in this season!  Have a great Monday!  I'll be back tomorrow hopefully with some cards that I made last week using my scraps of DSP!  Love them!

Birthday Cupcake!

Here's another post for Tuesday... what can I say?  I am feeling generous!

I CASEd this card from someone but honestly cannot remember who.  If you recognize it, please give me a shout so I can give credit where credit is due.  This is a pretty self explanatory card.  The most difficult part was getting the flag banner centered!

Supplies:

Paper:  Pool Party CS, Whisper White CS, Soft Suede CS, Calypso Coral CS, Pool Party DSP

Ink:  Soft Suede, Pool Party, Calypso Coral

Stamps:  Create A Cupcake

Tools:  Scallop Edge Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Cupcake Builder Punch, Circle Punch

Thanks for looking!

Welcome, Little One

Love this little card I have for you today!  It's another baby card, and I actually made this one a long time ago.  There's a little contraband on this one... my ribbon and brads are non SU!  

It turned out so adorable didn't it?  The colour combo could be for a baby boy or girl, but if you wanted to go really girly girl, it would be so easy to substitute pink colours for the blue and yellow!

Thanks for looking!  Seeyou tomorrow!

Celebrate The Little One!

Good morning!  I have another baby card for you today!  This one uses a variety of different stamp sets and has alot of little details.  Sponging, paper piercing and distressed edges all combined with the colour combo to create a sweet card to welcome a new baby!  I stamped the greeting  and punched it out with my oval punch and layered it on a stamp from a totally un-baby related stamp set!  Cool, huh?

My colours for this card are Sahara Sand, Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue and So Saffron.  I love them together, although the Blue and Celery are now retired!

Stop by tomorrow for another card!

Hello!

I got the inspiration for this card off of the Stampin' Up! website.  It uses the adorable Funky Four stamp set.  I loved using the thin strip of cardstock instead of the ribbon... it was just that little something different.  (As well as the fact that at the time I had no Daffodil Delight ribbon!)  Anyway... cute, no?

From Me To You

 This is a really fun card to make.  I used the (VERY old) So Many Sayings stamp set, which I had carefully cut all the sayings apart on, and had my husband cut the wood blocks into separate strips as well, and, the Good Neighbour stamp set from Sale-a-bration a few years ago!  A little sponging for the grass and the sky and you're good to go!
