Fabulous Florets - CPC8

I made this card for the monthly challenge  Creating Pretty Cards Challenge at Craft Projects Central.

I used Whisper White cardstock for my base and embossed it using the Final Press embossing folder.  The pattern paper is another sheet from the Welcome Neighbor paper pack.  I punched the edge with the scallop border punch then scored along the edge so that it would stand up just a little. 

For the inside I used a whisper white mat cut to 5 1/4 x 4, punched the edge and added a 1/2" strip of the pattern paper behind the scallop.

I stamped the butterfly from the Clearly for You set and punched it out.   The ribbon is tucked behind the pattern.

Thanks for stopping by.

I am entering this card in the Creating Pretty Cards 8 challenge.

Happy Birthday - Creating Pretty Cards 7

I have another card using the sketch from Craft Project Central.    My brother's birthday is in a couple of weeks and I need a card.

I stamped the ship on whisper white cardstock then centered it on the square Designer Frame, embossed it and  cut the center out.  I embossed another frame, cut around it and centered this on my card front.  The ship is on foam dots. Instead of using circles I used the Decorative Label punch to the ledger paper that I stamped with Basic Gray.

I used the light blue DSP after cutting off the trees and Clouds for the inside of my card.  I used the clouds as a border on the top of the card.  The anchor is stamped with basic gray and punched out using the Designer Label Punch.

To make my ribbon match my card I used Very Vanilla Seam Binding and colored it with my Bermuda Bay ink pad, then used a heat gun to dry it.

Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks So Much - Creating Pretty Cards 7

I needed a thank you card and decided to use the sketch from Craft Project Central and based it on my {Love} Card.

I added a few extra pearls to the ribbon on the left hand side and one on each side of the bow. 

I also added the little flower stamp in the inside of the card from the Tiny Tags stamp set.

Once again I stamped then embossed the envelope.  It's a little thing but it really adds a lot when you send the card. 

Thanks for stopping by.

{Love} - Creating Pretty Cards 7

I created this card for this month's challenge at Craft Project Central.  The challenge runs all month long and you can enter as may times as you wish, but you must use Stampin' Up supplies only.  In the past I have started out with great intentions and somewhere along the line I've used something that wasn't Stampin' Up so I haven't entered.  Today however I got it right!!!

I stamped the medium sized doily onto whisper white card stock and punched it out with the 1 3/4" Circle punch.  The card base is Basic Gray and the pattern papers are from the Welcome Neighbor paper pack. 

For the inside I cut the Whisper White at 5 1/4" x 4 " and a border using the Welcome Neighbor DSP.

I stamped with the other three stamps from the Delicate Doilies set on the  envelope and then embossed using Melon Mambo Embossing powder.  I believe that it's a nice touch to finish off your card. 

Thanks for stopping by.
