Easter Cards with SU's Faith & Hope

Whipped up a few Easter cards over the weekend-I only have this one stamp set so I get bored pretty quick.

For this one I used Pretty in Pink, Blush Blossom & mellow Moss paper-ribbon is from PTI & the square buckle is something I bought from Oriental Trading at least 2 years ago-1st time I've used one! Colored image in with Copics.

I used PTI paper on this one and the little pearl bling I found at Michael's a couple weeks ago.  Sponged some Apricot Appeal in the sky area.

I finally used a Cuttlebug embossing folder set I have had forever-it came with 4 little folders & all 4 are flowers. I think it add's a nice touch here.  Little pearl bling from Michael's again.

Last one-Almost Amethyst is the background paper and the image is layered on Gable Green. The horizontal triangle is a scrap that seemed to coordinate well. And little green pearl bling from Michael's. I may have to run and get some more!

Childrens Birthday cards with Animal Stories

I used my free stamp set from Saleabration this past week-Animal Stories. Made some children birthday cards using the DCwV Animal Crackers background paper.

This first one has the middle Giraffe covered with stickles. Images were stamped with Dusty Durango & Crushed Curry-same colors for the paper.

This one is using the little elephant image-I think he is so cute!

He was stamped in Close to Cocoa-the layered papers are Garden Green & Close to Cocoa-used some scraps from the Animal Crackers paper & ran a strip of Garden Green through the cuttlebug with the distressed stripes folder.

I used mostly PTI paper on this one-the stripe is something I picked up awhile ago-can't remember what it is-it was a left over scrap.

and a really simple one for last-elephant stamped in gray & layered on Brilliant Blue scallop circle punch and 2 coordinating scraps from Animal Crackers-old square brads that matched the blue.

2 bottles of wine

I had an ugly black blemish on this card so I covered it with an empty bottle of wine! I colored in the dress with SU Dusty Durango & Cameo Coral-that's as close as I could get it to match the color in the background paper. I just love this Winobello stamp!

Happy Boost for a friend

One of my girlfriends is going through a tough divorce-she was down on Friday so I made this Bella card to cheer her up-hope she likes it. Notice how the groovy pants match the background paper?

Anne's 60th Birthday Card

A friend at work needed a special card for her friend Anne who is turning 60 later this month. A group of them get together once a month for GIRLS NIGHT OUT-GNO. So, here is what I came up with-used Winobello stamp, bright background paper & lots of orange peel stickles!

Loving Bella's

Don't you just love the Bella stamps??? These are from an image swap-tinkerbella will be a birthday card-the inside says : Here’s wishing you a fairy happy birthday!

Emmybella has been shopping again!

and this one is supposed to be be with my two furbabies (my hair is so not that long). I am holding Cocoa who is a sealpoint Himalyan and Sweetie is at my feet-she is a little buff colored tiger. I used one of the new Romance CB embossing folders on the Rich Razzleberry background paper & one of the little stip CB embossing folders for the strip that goes across. My wonderful sister Jewel gave me that one and I think this is the first time I used it!

SU 2 Step Bird Punch

I made my first card with this great punch from SU-pretty basic as I was just trying to see what it would look like. Silly me, I initially thought the larger leaves were just that-leaves. Then after looking at it & being a little disappointed in the bird it dawned on me that the leaf is the birds wing-a DUH moment for sure. I just used some sky background paper from a really old stack.
