Stampin' With Scraps: Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper

 

This card is a great example of how paper scraps can turn into a perfect card.  I used Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper scraps to create this adorable birthday card.  The "Happy Birthday You Sweet Thing" sentiment is from the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set.  If you like the Ice Cream Corner DSP, order it now.  This DSP is part of the Spring Mini Catalog and will only be available until the end of June or while supplies last.

Feel Better Friend Card with Fresh Freesia

A little "pretty in pink" or should I say pretty in Fresh Freesia.  This card should make anyone feel better.  This beautiful flower is from the new Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set. I stamped the flower in Black Memento Ink and used the Light Smoky Slate Blend to outline the flower.  I then used Light Daffodil Delight in the center and Dark Soft Sea Foam on the leaves.  Cut out the flower using Stitched So Sweetly Dies.

Details:

• Fresh Freesia Cardstock card base:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4
• True Love DSP strip:  1 1/4" x 5"
• The "feel better friend" greeting is from the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set - which I cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies
