Fortunate To Know You

This card, and the stamp set I used to make it, are so fun and would be perfect for my husband!!  He would eat Chinese food every day I think.  If you have anyone like that in your family/friends group then this is a must have stamp set.

I made this in a more feminine colors than I would if it were for my husband, but isn’t this just perfect for a Chinese food lover?  I stamped everything on the Whisper White layer using the Memento Tuxedo Ink and colored with the Stampin’ Blends.  Yes, I know I am addicted to these blends, so please forgive me using them all the time.  I stamped and colored the fortune, and then stamped and colored it on a scrap piece and cut it out.  It is made a little wavy by bending with my bone folder and then raising it with stampin’ dimensionals.

The card stock I used is a base of Rich Razzleberry and then the Foil Frenzy Designer Series Paper as more of a second focal point.  I finished by wrapping some Linen Thread around a few times.  And the bow is made using two strands of thread and secured with a glue dot.

Be Happy

One of the fabulous Sale-A-Bration sets is the Happy Wishes stamp set.  With a qualifying order of either $40.00 or $100.00 these items are FREE.  Yes, this set is with a $100.00 order, but it is so very worth it.  This set has almost any sentiment you would want and they are done in beautiful fonts.  I went with the simple “Be Happy” sentiments.  This is my new mantra. Don’t sweat the little stuff, just be happy!

Do you recognize the card stock beneath the sentiment?  That is really a trick question!!  Sorry about that 🙂  I used the Sweet Soiree Memories & More Card Pack.  This pack is also a Sale-A-Bration item that you can get at no cost with a qualifying order.  These cards are for way more than just the memory pages.  The cards are double sided with great quotes/sentiments, super DSP type designs and partial cards like the one I chose to use.  And they come in two different sizes.

For the card I chose to use, it already has the flower design and thin green stripe below the white open area.  The Happy Wishes sentiment fit perfectly in the open area.  I stamped it in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the flowers with the Stampin’ Blends.  And that is it.  A little layering and complete.  I really love a super quick card.

Thank you so much for visiting today!  I hope you will take a second look at a both this stamp set and the Memories and More Card Pack.  They are both a win/win.  I have listed the measurements for my card and the supplies are at the bottom of the page.

For My Friend

I love cards with different folds!  Today’s card sort of qualifies in that catagory.  It is a scalloped circle card.  You can make these with any die cut shape.  This one is a cute little gift card.

This little gift card, or it could be a little Random Act of Kindness card, is made using the Layering Circles Framelits.  You fold your card stock, lay the die off the fold end (so that it isn’t cutting there), and VOILA!  You have a circle card. How easy is that??  I then simple used the next two smaller scalloped circles to finish the card.

I hope you will give this technique a try!  Let me know if you do please.  I used Stampin’ Write Markers in Old Olive, Always Artichoke, Crushed Curry, and Soft Suede to color the pineapple and give it some depth.

Thank you for visiting today.  I appreciate your visits and comments very much.  I hope you have an awesome weekend! The supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.

You Inspire Me

Today I have a card that ended up pretty darn cute.  But Oh My!  It was ugly in between !  I was trying the Brusho powder and started out okay, made a mess, regrouped, and ended up back in the pretty cute category.  I will let you decide if it is okay now 🙂

Yay You, 145946

 

What do you think?  My original plan was an embossed butterfly with the surrounding area having the flecks of Brusho. That turned into a quick mess.  Thankfully I had already embossed the butterfly.  So I just began coloring it in.  It is a little darker than intended, but it works.  And after being cut out, it looks totally better than before.  I definitely need more time with the Brusho powders.

This sentiment is the star of the card.  I love that statement and feel I should send it to several people on a regular basis who inspire me everyday!!  It is from the Occasions Catalog Host set, which is usually overlooked.  Now I would place a qualifying order, or have a party, specifically to get that sentiment!  If you feel the same way, please give me a call and lets plan something!

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I very  much appreciate you visiting and love to read your comments.  I hope you have an awesome day!

The supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.

Pals Blog Hop – CASE the Catty

 

Welcome to the Pals Feburary 2018 Blog Hop. Our theme this month is “Case the Catty”. The Stampin’ Pretty Pals will copy or remake projects from any of the current Stampin’ Up! catalogs and brochures. After all, who doesn’t CASE (Copy and Share Everything) once in a while. You may be just starting or hopped over from another Pal. In either case you’ll find the line-up toward the end of my post to help you move along.

I have CASED the Flying Home card from page 41 of the Occasions Catalog.  Here is my version.

Flying Home, 145929

 

I utilized the layout of the catalog card, but changed the colors, and the sentiment.  The catalog has the center house cut out and raised with dimensionals, I chose to do the same but with the left side house.  I also added the little bee flying by at the bottom.

I had a hard time choosing my designer series paper.  From the Stampin’ Blends colors I used for my bird house colors, I had too many choices of DSP!!  That is definitely a good problem to have.  In the end I narrowed down to these two pages from the Tutti-Fruitti DSP pack.  My sentiment came from the Bird Banter stamp set.  I thought it was very appropriate for my card!

Thank you so much for hopping with the Stampin’ Pretty Pals today. Please take a minute to mark your calendar for our next hop on March 14, 2018. Now hop along using the Blog Hop Line-up below. Don’t forget to leave us a comment. We really like that.
