Print Greetings

 

I saw this card on Pinterest (sorry there is no name attached to this photo... would love to give credit to the person who made this card! It's lovely! I changed a few things on my own card to make it my own, but wanted to show where I got my inspiration from!

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Mario Mushroom

 

This card was designed for my Godson who loves Mario Brothers. I saw a similar card on Pinterest and wanted to create one for my nephew. The Mario Mushroom is a free clip art from ClipArtMax website.

The font is 'Minecraft'.

I added the Designer Series Paper 'Petal Passion' to the top and bottom. (The only thing that's SU!).

Blossoms Abound

 

I just love the simplicity in Julia's card. Just one stamp set and you have everything to create a lovely card. Although I do love the pastel colors (and I may need to create one using the pastel colors for my own), I chose to use Poppy Parade, Azure Afternoon, and Wild Wheat together for this card. My Aunt (who the card is for), is an All-American woman. I felt these colors reflected her patriotism better than a pastel card would.

I added a 'Wink of Stella' to all the petals.

Thanks for taking a look!

Fathers Day Rollercoaster

 

I wanted to create a card for my Grand Niece, Mia, to give to her Dad. He loves rollercoaster... and I know he will encourage her to love his rollercoasters too. I traced her handprint and cut them out. I found a scene online of the 'Blue Streak' (probably not one of Aaron's favorite rides, but hey.... it's a rollercoaster!).

I attached the scene into the inside opening of the card and placed the hands on the outer portion of the card so... when opened it kinda looks like you're riding down the rollercoaster! Cool!

Happy Jars

 

Nikki Spencer's card was just so lovely, I knew I had to create one of my own. I used colors that were current... Bubble Bath, Lost Lagoon and Moody Mauve.

The sentiment is from the 'Beautifully Happy' stamp set (Sale-A-Bration).

I added a 'Wink of Stella' to the blooms and the jar to make them shine.

Irresistible Camellia

 

WOW! Let me just tell you... this card took a while to do, yet is too adorably cute! I decided to try my hand at the 'Pop-up Vase card. There are several tutorials on YouTube out there, so I won't go into detail here. (The Pop-up part is inside the card.)

It took a bit of time to do, as the scoring of the Designer Series Paper kept ripping on me, so I added a reinforced piece on the other side of the 'Vase' part. Also, you definitely need to use heavy-duty double-sided sticky tape (or tear n tape) to attach to the card base. I didn't have any, so tried just Stampin' Seal+ first... only to have to utilize the Tombow liquid glue instead.

I added a Wink of Stella to all the blooms that you see here!

Happy Minnie

 

My sister-in-law LOVES Disney, so I knew I had to create a card around Disney. Within my scrapbook supplies I found 3D stickers (EK Success) and I paired it with the sentiment in the 'Happiness Abounds'  stamp set.

The Real Red DSP with the dots really went well with the Minnie sticker too! Bonus!

Turtle Buddies

 

I saw these two cute cards in Pinterest and wanted to incorporate both in one card.

I stamped the hearts the same way that Barbara did, and drew a line with my Stampin' Write marker around the edge to create a border.

Greeting Nature

 

I really liked the look and feel of Su Mohr's card. I changed mine up a bit to make it my own, but wanted to give credit to Su! Thanks Su!

I chose the colors Misty Moonlight, Old Olive and Early Espresso. I stamped the stump on Crumb Cake and made that my base card too.

Happiness Scored

 

I love bright spring flowers! Yellows and Pinks make for a stunning card (in my opinion).

I chose Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo and paired it with Granny Apple Green.

I used 'Wink of Stella' for the flower petals to make them shine.

Celebrating Fern

 

For my niece and her husband on their 4th wedding anniversary. Congratulations! May you be blessed with many more years together!

I love the 'Forever Fern' stamp set and its coordinating dies 'Forever Flourishing'.

The color combo I used was Moody Mauve, Misty Moonlight and Smoky Slate.

I used a stylus to run it on the back of the dies (while the paper was still in the dies), to make them more defined. I also added 'A Wink of Stella' to the buds to make them shine.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Geek Birthday

 

I have a few gamers in our family, so purchasing the Geektacular Kit from MagsGfx was a must for me! The kit has many elements to it, so it's very versatile. I used the kit within My Memories Suite digital software.

The font was purchased (free) from Dafont.com. (font was used on all the words seen in the photo.)

Oceanfront Home

Such a great card that Heidi Baks created using the 'Oceanfront' stamp set. I paired mine with the sentiment from 'Paradise Palms' and the birds from 'Sailing Home' stamp sets. I added a 'Wink of Stella' to the ocean to make it sparkle.

Aubreys Dog

Mother's Day Hugs

 

I saw this cute card on Pinterest and felt this would be a cute card for my Grand niece, Mia, to give to her Mom, Tori (my niece). I traced Mia's hand and then cut the hands out for the card.

I printed the inside words with My Memories Suite software and printed it out on Basic White cardstock. Oh... the sentiment 'I Love You' is a stamp from the 'Happy Birthday Gorgeous' set. The heart shaped die is from the 'Be Mine' die set.

Irresistible You

 

For cards that I want to make several of, I try to create the same layout but with differing color schemes. This is true for my Mother's Day cards for this year... for all the mother's in my life!

I chose to use the new 'Irresistible Blooms' stamp set. Now, I wasn't able to get the coordinating dies as they ran out of them, but will hopefully get some when they come in. With that said... YES... I did fussy cut the flowers out.

I chose the color combos of Rich Razzleberry/Fresh Freesia; Night of Navy/Balmy Blue; and Pumpkin Pie/Pale Papaya. I paired them all with Old Olive. I added a Wink of Stella to the blooms to make them shine.

Thanks for taking a peek!
