Dominoe Swap

The pictures on these did not turn out very well. I signed up for a swap and they have to go in the mail tomorrow so I thought I would show you. I used Lumiere Pearl White, Pearl Turquoise and Pearl Blue. I think the blue is almost too dark but they are done. The stamp is from Stampin' Up! and I placed Class-A-Peel Stickers in the centers of the flowers. I then used Stampin' Up! Sticky Strip around the edges and added Black and Silver Micro Beads from Pennywisearts. Then brushed a coat of Crystal Effects over the whole piece. Hope my swap partners like them.

Thank You!

There is a lot going on here. I used the buttons so I followed the Challenge at: http://thecuttlebugspot.blogspot.com/2009/02/cute-as-button.html

1) Pale Plum base card

2) Retired Stampin' Up! Designer Paper next layer

3) reverse side of paper for next layer and I used the Stampin Up! Eyelet Border punch on it

4) a strip of Pale Plum also using Eyelet Border Punch.

5) Mello Moss strip run through the Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots border folder

6) Punched out various size flowers using designer paper, moss and plum then adhered a small moss button on those groups

7) Large flower and leaf place up towards the top - not sure about the color of the bottom flower as to how well it goes but it is there so it's staying.

8) Used my large Marvy Scallop punch on a piece of Pale Plum, inked with Pale Plum

9) Stamped Thank You from the new Stampin' Up! Elegant Thank You in VersaFine Black on Mellow Moss and used Stampin' Up!Scallop Square Punch , added Class A Peel Stickers

Cuttlebug Bling

Here is a card that I completed finally for the Cuttlebug Spot Bling Challenge. I just had to use my favorite Parisian Breeze Designer Paper from Stampin' Up!. The silver piece at the top is a tape that I have run through the Cuttlebug. The little flower accents are from Class A Peel stickers, Martha Stewart Butterfly Punch took care of the little ones at the top. The bigger butterfly was actually stamped then cut out. I topped them all with Crystal Effects and Dazzling Diamonds. The big butterfly is from the new Stampin' Up! set God's Beauty.

A Birthday card

My sister-in-laws birthday is coming up soon so I made this card for her. The birthday wishes will go on the inside. The only thing I did after this photo was taken was to add stickles to the hummingbird. Two new Stampin' Up! sets were used here Pretty Amazing and Wonderful Watercolors. I don't remember which set the happiness stamp came from. Cardstock is Baja Breeze, Sahara Sand, Whisper White and Designer Paper Parisian Breeze. Baja Breeze striped Ribbon is knotted and secured behind the stamped image. I used Class-A-Peal stickers on the flowers for some extra bling. I hope she likes it.

SNOW BURST

I finally had a chance to make a card for the November Challenge for Christmas Cards Year Round. You had to use 2 ribbons, 2 buttons and two snowflakes. I have a lot of snowflakes stamped on this one so I'm in hopes that will work. This uses the Stampin' Up! set Snow Burst but the let it snow is from a retired set. The cardstock is Pacific Point, Whisper White and Shimmery. Buttons are from my stash and Class A Peal Stickers were placed in the centers of the snowflakes.

Eastern Blooms

One card but placed two different ways. I happen to prefer it as an accordian but it is also a stair step. All most all Stampin' Up! products, Class A Peel Stickers used in centers of flowers.

Pacific Point, Shimmery and Baja Breeze cardstock used, Basic Brown and Pacific Point inks along with the Stampin' Up! set Eastern Blooms. I also used Stampin' Up! 1 inch circle punch and the trio flower punch.

Have a great weekend! I'm off to the fair today.

Another Tree Card

I am loving doing these! I did this one using some retired Stampin' Up! Designer paper that I had left over from last year. I also used the retired Star punch, I think this shape is perfect for these trees. The Seasons Greetings comes from Stampin' Up! Rub-ons Word Flurries and the bling happens to be Class A Peel Stickers by Stampendous! Red Grosgrain from Stampin' Up!
