The fun Curved Occasions stamp set is a unique mix of images and sentiments. I have used it today to create a birthday card with Vintage items. That sounds so much better than Old!!!
Stamp Set
The Curved Occasions set has this cute little VW Bug convertible. Anyone of my age group loved those cars. So it had to be the star of this card. And the disco ball, that’s just a given! LOL!!! I wanted to use the roller skate because I actually roller skated competitively in my early days. It would have been a great pairing of transportation from the time. 🙂 But the person the card is for did not skate, so the disco ball gets to be the second piece of nostalgia.
The little bug is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored with a variety of Stampin’ Blends. And the disco ball is stamped with Smoky Slate. It is a littler duller than the flashy original balls but that was the best I could do. And again, this is a one stamp set card!
Papers
The papers used were blues to go along with the color of the bug. I found this perfect DSP in the Stargazing Designer Series Papers. It is the reverse side of one of the galaxy looking sheets. The brightness of the Azure Afternoon stars was a perfect match. And pairing it with the Azure Afternoon card base tied everything together. Of course I had to add just the thin layer of Basic White to separate the blues as well as help the focal White layer blend in.

The title for this card is very appropriate. It is my version of a Classic Christmas card. And is easy to create with the Christmas Classics Bundle.
Stamp Bundle
The Christmas Classics Bundle is the star of this card. I have been starting my post with paper, but this time the stamp set was the primary starting point. There are several sentiments and a few different greenery pieces in the stamp set. I love the simplicity and old fashioned feel to the Peace on Earth.
The dies in this bundle are fabulous. There are three large sentiment layers as well as smaller ones and greenery too. This large one is my favorite. And the White with the sentiment is a die as well. Of course it fits perfectly into the center. I will say I was pleasantly surprised at how well all of the small pieces came out of this die cut. But I used a piece of variegated DSP to cut so that probably helped.
Papers
The DSP is usually my beginning for a card. This time I had the stamp set and looked for paper that would compliment it. The Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper fit the old fashioned look perfectly! I love the watercolor look of this piece. And the other colors came from this one of course. I only used a 2″ tall piece of the DSP because this card was for my card club and it is a large club. But I do like how the two pieces highlight the focal area.
The second of the front layers is a piece of Real Red the same size as the DSP layer. If you can see the texture on it, I used the crosshatch folder in the 3 Basics Embossing Folders that are in the Online Exclusives. This one is by far my go to for a bit of texture! The extra texture are a trio of Iridescent Rhinestones that I colored with the Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends.
Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulous weekend.

Todays card is a break from Christmas cards and back to birthdays. This one has a mix of products that I hope you will like. Most are from the Modern Garden Suite.
Papers
The paper is where the color choices were chosen from so starting there is a good point. The two pieces you see of DSP, the left side and the area behind the sentiment, are from the Garden Walk Designer Series Paper. Actually they are opposite sides of one piece of the paper. And did you notice the torn edge? That is something I have not done in forever. Another old technique that is always in style!
The card base is pulled form the DSP and is Poppy Parade. And even though I know that blue flowers are very rare, I had to pull the Boho Blue from the paper for the thin layer as well as a few flowers. The boughs behind the sentiment are punched from Pretty Peacock card stock. **The Bough Punch is back in stock as of yesterday!!!!
Stamp Bundle
This stamp set is a Punch Bundle and I love it. There are several different sentiments and flowers, even a poinsettia. It is the Modern Garden Bundle. And the Punch is the Modern Oval Punch. It is a great size for medium to larger sentiments. All of the floral stamps I used, and I used several, are in the stamp set. I could have gone a bit overboard, but just loved trying the different ones and adding colors from the DSP piece. The flowers on the sentiment layer are probably supposed to be definitions for the larger flowers. But I thought they were cute enough to be their own flower.
Finishes
To complete the card I need bling of course. But first I added some loops of the White Iridescent Ribbon under the sentiment layer. It does not show up well in the photo but does add texture in person. And the final touch is the addition of the Adhesive Backed Sequin Trio. There are more than my normal three here. I added one to the center of each stamped flower! This is a happy birthday card after all.

The card I have to share today is a beautiful Flip Front Fun Fold that is a sympathy card. I hate making these, but they are necessary. And with the All About Autumn DSP it gives you a warm feeling.
Papers
The intention of this card was to focus on the stamp / punch bundle. But the paper really stole the show. This piece of the All About Autumn Designer Series Paper is a fabulous one. The walking through the woods is beautiful and perfect for a sympathy card. For the side panel I used the reverse of the front piece of paper. And the Wild Wheat really highlights the gold of the scene.
Stamps and Punches
The Heartfelt Hexagon is a new Online Exclusive bundle that I really like. It has stamps for a few different occasions which is great. The punch is the hexagon with the sentiment stamped on it. It reminds me of the Tailored Tag Punch, just a bit taller and fatter. The size is perfect for larger sentiments!
The hexagon is layered on the 2 3/8″ Circle. It needed something else and that circle seemed to do the trick. To give it a touch of bling, I added two of the Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems. And for the inside sentiment I went to another stamp set. This one is the So Sincere from the Mini Catalog. It also is a multi-purpose sentiment set. Here is a view of the open card.
Fun Fold
This Fun Fold is a twist to what I call a “shortened” card. The card base is 7 1/2, instead of 8 1/2 wide with the height of 5 1/2. Score at 1″ and 4 1/4″ on the long side. As you can see from the inside view, the 1″ side is on the right and folds backwards to allow the card to open. The real trick is placing your sentiment layer with Stampin’ Dimensionals only on that 1″ panel. But I love how this keeps the card closed.
The layers are Very Vanilla cut to 3 X 5 1/4 and 3/4 X 5 1/4. Then the DSP is 2 7/8 X 5 1/8 and 5/8 X 5 1/8. I almost did only DSP instead of adding the Very Vanilla layer, but I like the lightness it adds. And it is aligned with the inside layer when open.
