Tropical Chic Happy Birthday!

Here is a birthday card that I have made with the Tropical Chic Bundle!  

The card base is Blushing Bride Cardstock.  I then added a layer of Granny Apple Green Cardstock.  I then added a layer of Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper.  I wrapped the Blushing Bride Ribbon around the Granny Apple Green and Tropical Escape Paper and made a bow!

I then cut a label from the Stitched Labels Framelits Dies out of Blushing Bride Cardstock.  I then stamped "Happy Birthday to You" in Blushing Bride and cut out an oval from the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies.  I adhered the two of those together and put the Blushing Bride Label on Dimensionals onto the Tropical Escape DSP.  I added a FABULOUS Petal Pink Rhinestone Gem!

I cut out Granny Apple Green palm branches from the Tropical Thinlits Dies. I cut out flowers from the white paper.  I saved one of the negatives from the cutouts and put into my Stamparatus.  I lined up the stamp with the negative and then stamped all the white flower cutouts with the Stamparatus.  This was great as I have trouble keeping the die lined up around the stamped image when cutting out with the Big Shot.  I stamped the flowers in Blushing Bride Ink on Whisper White Cardstock.  

Onto the inside of the card!  I stamped the words from Life is Grand Stamp Set in Blushing Bride Ink.  This is one of my favorite stamp sets! I then added a two inch strip of Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper onto the Whisper White.  I layered that onto Granny Apple Green Cardstock and a Blushing Bride card base.

Christmas Card?

Christmas Time?

Do you need to start working on your Christmas Cards to have them ready to send out in December?

Tomorrow is the new catalog launching.  Do you have yours yet?  If you need a catalog, please let me know.

This is a Sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #37. 

The card base is 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4.  Layered onto the card base is Gumball Green  - a new In Color!  This piece is 4 1/8 x 5 3/8.  Then I have added Be Good Cheer DSP that is 5 1/4 x 4.

The scallop border punch is used on the long side of 5 1/4 x 2.  The DSP is 5 1/4 x 1 1/2.  I used the 2 1/2" punch and then stamped the ornament inked in Gumball Green and punched out 1 3/4"punch.  I hand cut the middle and put it up on a dimensional with a Pearl.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks for stopping by,

The Paper Players Challenge

Here is my take of the challenge on The Paper Players.

I made this card for my parents to send to their close friends. They lost their son in a car accident.

I once again made another lace flower. I just love making them. Of course, the Antique Brads work well in the center as well!
