Paint Chip Inspiration #4: Blue Butterfly

Today's Paint Chip inspiration is a simple birthday card using a light blue paint chip from Home Depot.  This card could work with any paint chip color combination.   I added Night of Navy border trim and stamped the butterfly in Night of Navy.  I used Black Stazon ink for the greeting so it wouldn't smear on the paint chip since it has a slight sheen.  Love the crisp, clean lines and the simplicity of this card.





Stampin with Scraps: Stampin' Up! Stacked With Love

This is yet another card I put together using scraps from my Stampin' Up! Stacked With Love Designer Series Paper pack in the new Occasion Catalog.  

Punched little squares with my 1" Square Punch and then I rounded only 2 of the opposing corners. Just like that, it looks like a flower.  Hope this inspires you!








Stampin' Up! Happy Heart Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

This was another one of my cards from my January stamping class.  I cased this card from Pinterest... I thought, what a great use of scraps.  These banners were made using the Banner Punch and scraps from Stampin' Up! Stacked With Love DSP Pack from the new Occasions Catalog.  For the background I used the new Stampin' Up! Happy Heart Textured Impressions Embossing Folder also from the Occasions Catalog.

I made several projects using the new Stampin' Up!

Technique Tuesday: Reverse Applique Technique

I thought this was an appropriate technique to share this month since Valentine's Day is approaching. This would work great with any Stampin' Up! DSP packs.
