Lovely As Can Be …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Hope you are having a good day so far … a bit chilly again! Cold never bothered my much before but I’m ready for some 50’s … 60’s …. anything!

Yesterday I share a quick -n- easy card that I created with the Lovely Inside & Out Bundle and I paired it with the Tutti-Frutti Cards -n- Envelopes packet from the Sale-a-bration Catalog! Comes with 16 cards (4 each of 4 colors) with coordinating envelopes!!

Well … I could not let the cut out from yesterday’s card go to waste, especially since I cut it out of the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper!  So I came up with this card …

The left over pieces were glued onto a heart that I cut out from the Tutti-Frutti paper … with that I cut out a few extra hearts (some in Basic Black cardstock).

I cut out a little banner and stamped it with one of the greetings from the stamp set included in the bundle.  The little heart comes from the Metallic Enamel Shapes (141678) and colored it with the Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blend!

Using the framelits to cut around the words is only one way to use these dies, but don’t throw away the left overs … you can always use them!

Thank you for stopping back today  … don’t forget to check back daily to see what else I’ve come up with using this bundle.

So my Two for Tuesday come from the same die cut!!

 

Have a great day ~

Lovely Inside & Out …

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! We had a very snowy one here in Wisconsin … about 6 inches were we live (actually I think it’s the most we had all season, pretty lucky so far).

I was hoping to make it through this winter without a snowblower, but yea … I ended up paying people to clear out my driveway! I have to protect my stampin’ hands! lol

Today I am going to share with you a card I created with the Lovely Inside & Out Bundle … in fact, for the next few days I will be showing you cute creations from this bundle … it will be like attending one of my classes!

You will learn how I made them and some great tips as well. I hope you stop back each day to see them all, and if you like them, please take a second to click the LIKE button on the bottom of my post.

Our “lovely” was cut from the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and you can purchase that either from it’s own pack (12 x 12) or in the Myths & Magic Glimmer paper (6 x 6).

When cutting the heart out the way I did here, you will need one of the hearts from the Sweet & Sassy Framelits Dies. You will notice throughout the week that the Lovely Words Framelits coordinate with the hearts, Ovals & Circle Framelits.

Using the framelits to cut around the words is only one way to use these dies, I will show you more in the upcoming days.

 

The stamped words come from the Lovely Inside & Out Stamp set. I created the little tag with the Triple Banner punch and by omitting the word “great” because I only needed the “For a” to go with my “lovely” and then I hand stamped the “friend”.

I added the little flower from the “Petal Passions” embellishments to balance out my card. The banner made  it a bit top heavy, so the addition of the flower added dimension and balance.

So … you must be wondering “What is that cardstock Linda’s using”??  Well, it’s the cute little Tutti-Frutti Cards -n- Envelopes packet from the Sale-a-bration Catalog! Comes with 16 cards (4 each of 4 colors) with coordinating envelopes… 32 pieces in all!!

Thanks so much for sharing you Monday with me … don’t forget to check back daily to see what else I’ve come up with using this bundle.

Have a wonderful week ~

Card Share & Personal Invite!!

Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Yes, I took the day off yesterday, that is one benefit of having your own business ❤ So I’m back today with a super cute -n- quick card to you!

This month my Stampin’ Clubs are working with the Petal Passion Product Suite and the coordination Designer Paper, so I used another pattern from it and sponged “turquoise”  on it giving it the “Ombre” look … I did mine from dark to light!

I couldn’t resist using those darling Pandas from the Sale-A-Bration stamp set “Party Pandas” ….

Aren’t they just the cutest little guys you’ve ever seen!? Love them … and speaking of love, the greeting is included with the stamp set and they can be yours for FREE!! With a $50 purchase (before s&h) you can choose this or other exclusive stamps & product from our Sale-A-Bration catalog.

I punched out the greeting with the new Scallop punches found on page 17 of the Occasions Catalog. The awesome glimmer paper on the greeting and balloon are from the Myths & Magic product suite … that is also where you will find the coordinating Washi Tape I used on the outside and inside of my card.

AND  … if you like to party like a Panda, I’ve got a fun video to share with you. Sit back and watch how our Stampin’ Family parties … this is one of our On Stage events. We see new product introductions, how to use it, celebrate each others accomplishments, stamping demonstrations and the beloved PRIZE PATROL!!! Enjoy …
