Tag: handmade birthday card

Today’s card was inspire by the challenge this week at Freshly Made Sketches.

My card starts off with Thick Whisper White cardstock.  I adhered a pattern from the Naturally Eclectic to the front of the card.

Next I cut a panel of Berry Burst cardstock.  I stamped the two flowers from the Oh So Eclectic stamp set in Versamark ink on the cardstock, sprinkled it with white embossing powder, and heat embossed it.

The sentiment comes from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set which I stamped in Versamark ink, sprinkled with white embossing powder, and heat embossed.  I added a bow around the Berry Burst cardstock using Thick Whisper White Baker’s Twine.

Enjoy!

PRODUCT LIST: 

My card today was inspired by this weeks TGIF Challenge.

My card today starts off with Soft Sky cardstock.  I took a strip of Tear & Tape adhesive and placed it down the middle of the card.  I then took the Pacific Point Stitched Edge Ribbon and sort of folded it onto itself over the adhesive.  I layered it  a panel of Pacific Point cardstock which I adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Next I took the Birthday Memories DSP and fussy cut out two cakes and a bunch of presents.  I arranged them over another pattern from the Birthday Memories DSP.

I layered the cake and presents with the sentiment which comes from the Birthday Delivery stamp set and was stamped in Real Red ink.  I added a few enamel dots to finish off the card.

Enjoy!

PRODUCT LIST:

Today’s card starts off with Old Olive cardstock.  I took a pattern from the Delightful Daisy DSP and matted it on Whisper White cardstock and adhered it to the card.

I then took another pattern, cut it at 2′, and used the Triple Banner Punch to cut the end.  I took a 1-1/2″ strip of Whisper White cardstock and cut the end of that.  Lastly I cut a 1″ strip of Daffodil Delight cardstock and cut the end of that.  On the Whisper White banner I stamped the sentiment from the Sunshine Sayings stamp set in Old Olive ink.

I wound around some Old Olive Chevron Ribbon and then tied a Linen Thread bow around it and around a piece of Burlap Ribbon.

Enjoy!

Today’s card was inspired by this week’s challenge at Global Design Project.

PRODUCT LIST: 

Today’s card was inspired by the tic-tac-toe challenge at The Paper Players this week.  I went straight across the top.

My card today starts off with Pear Pizzazz cardstock.  I then took a pattern from the A Whole Lot of Lovely DSP and matted it on Basic Black cardstock.  I took another pattern and cut a 2′ strip and the end in a banner.

I used the Stitched Framelits to create a background to the diecut Happy Birthday.  I cut circles out in Whisper White, Powder Pink, Pool Party, and Basic Black.  I used the Balloon Adventures stamp set to create the stamped sentiments on two of the circles.  I used the washi tape technique so as to be able to break up the sentiment.  I stamped the first part in Memento Black ink and the second one in Versamark ink which I sprinkled with White Embossing Powder and heat embossed.

I cut out two birthdays, one in Whisper White and one in Pear Pizzazz.  I cut off the “happy” part of it and layered one over the other.  I wrapped around some Pool Party Baker’s Twine to finish it off.

Enjoy!

PRODUCT LIST:

This month’s Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop theme is “Celebrate Summer”. 

I went back and forth with what to create, but in the end couldn’t let go of the fact that summer means ice cream – soft ice cream that is!  They go hand-in-hand.  You know, like Sonny & Cher, peanut butter & jelly, buttons & collars.

Here in Upstate New York, the soft ice cream shops open from March to October so one must frequent them often in order to get through winter.  😉

My go-to order: Chocolate vanilla twist with rainbow sprinkles.  Really the sprinkles are the show stopper.  In a perfect world, there’d be sprinkles in the ice cream itself.

Anyways, back to why you’re here…

My card starts off with Daffodil Delight cardstock although you can’t see it in the picture.  I took a pattern from the Birthday Memories DSP and layered over the card front.  I then took a panel of Daffodil Delight cardstock and stamped sprinkles on it in Daffodil Delight ink using the Cool Treats stamp set.  I matted it on some Pool Party cardstock.

I created the ice creams using Crumb Cake, Lemon Lime Twist, and Calypso Coral cardstock and the Frozen Treats framelits.

I stamped the sentiment in Lemon Lime Twist from the Cool Treats stamp set.

Enjoy!!
