4 x 4 Happy Birthday Card

I used a mix of Night of Navy, Lovely Lipstick and Pear Pizzazz on this 4 x 4 Birthday Card.  The Navy Gingham ribbon reminds me of a picnic table.

Incredible Like You in Balmy Blue

A little Incredible Like You birthday card in Balmy Blue.  The butterfly is punched out from Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper using the Butterfly Duet Punch.  The flowers are stamped in Balmy Blue and stamped off for the lighter color and the same for the leaves in Old Olive.

 

Grapefruit Grove Floral Country Embossed Thank You Card

I'm loving the new Floral Country Textured Embossing Folder, which is part of the second release of Sale-A-Bration items.  I embossed a piece of Grapefruit Grove cardstock and stamped the greeting in the same ink.  The butterfly is punched out from the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper using the Butterfly Duet Punch

Black & White Monday #9 - Petal Palette

I haven't used the Petal Palette stamp set in a while.  It's perfect for my Black & White Monday series.  The leaves would make a great background...  looks like designer series paper.

Stampin' Up! Sweet Cup for Spring

How sweet are the Stampin' Up! Sweet Cups.  I decorated this cup using Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper and Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I punched out the butterflies from the DSP paper using the Butterfly Duet Punch.

Here's a tip for punching out the butterflies from the Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper.  Cut out the butterfly you want from the DSP, adhere the butterfly to a small piece of scrap paper.  The scrap paper makes it easier to slide the butterfly into the Butterfly Duet Punch to line up the butterfly and the punch.

 

Healing Hugs Birthday Belt Card

I'm calling this a Belt Card.  The belt is held down by the butterfly wings from Botanical Butterfly Designer Series Paper.  I stamped the roses from the Healing Hugs stamp set in Lovely Lipstick and Flirty Flamingo inks.

Dimensions:  Cut a piece of Lovely Lipstick cardstock measuring 4-1/4" x 11" and score at 5-1/2".  Now cut off 1-1/4" off one of the ends and keep the piece.  This piece will be your belt.  Score the piece at one end at 1".  You will adhere that piece to the back of your card.

White cardstock stamped with Healing Hugs:  3-3/4" x 3-3/4", Flirty Flamingo cardstock layer 4" x 4".
