Tank Birthday

For the next few months I will be taking the cards I have had saved in draft and putting them up on my Friday's posts.  Things got a bit overwhelming in my household and my good intentions of having posts lined up for when I was off to doctor appointments did not go as planned.  I know some of these sets will already be on my retired list or no longer available.  I hope you can get some inspiration from them for a color, layout  or just something you can use to create a card you can share.  I will do my best to remember all of the things that I used to create the cards, not a guarantee!!!!    ;-) 

This card was requested by my 12 year old son for his friend's birthday.  He wanted a punch art tank. 

No longer available- Cutter Kit

Stamps: None
Paper: Always Artichoke, Soft Suede, Confetti White, Sahara Sand

Serene Fancy Fan

Another one of my favorite sets is Serene Silhouettes.  This can be used for feminine and masculine cards, fancy or simple.  This one I colored with the markers and then spritzed with Shimmer paint and Rubbing alcohol spray. For the banner I stamped the words and then used the die twice to shorten the banner to fit the words better.  


The background was done by combining two of the impression folders.  I used the Delicate Designs edge folder first.  I found it easier to line up the Fancy Fan folder on the top and fill in what was left.  




Details:

Stamps: Serene Silhouettes, Kindness Matters
Paper: Early Espresso, Raspberry Ripple, Whisper White, Gumball Green

Hot Air Balloons


For the next few months I will be taking the cards I have had saved in draft and putting them up on my Friday's posts.  Things got a bit overwhelming in my household and my good intentions of having posts lined up for when I was off to doctor appointments did not go as planned.  I know some of these sets will already be on my retired list or no longer available.  I hope you can get some inspiration from them for a color, layout  or just something you can use to create a card you can share.  I will do my best to remember all of the things that I used to create the cards, not a guarantee!!!!    ;-) 

The only thing I can think of that is no longer available on this card would be the Early Espresso ribbon.

Dahilas Thank you


My daughter loves to look at the catalog too.  The one thing that went straight to the top of her "Wish" list is the new In Color Dahlias.  She kept double checking to make sure that they were on my first order and asking when they were going to come in.  When my order did come in and I had time to make a card, she insisted that the first card I made had the new Dahlias on it. 

$7.95 for a pack of 20 (5 of each color)


 If you have visited before you know that I love the punches and had to have the postage Stamp punch, but have not used it very often.  I think that it fits perfect with the Bright Blossoms set.  They are a great fit for the Postage Stamps layered with the 1" Square punch.






Details:

Stamps: Itty Bitty Banners, Bright Blossoms
Paper: Basic Gray, Primrose Petals, Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse, Whisper White, Gumball Green
Ink: Gumball Green, Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse, Primrose Petals-Sponged edge
Accessories: 1" Square Punch, Postage Stamp Punch, Big Shot, Bitty Banners Framelit Die, Argyle Impression Folder, Dahlias, Rhinestones, Bird Builder Punch, Corner Rounder Punch, Basic Gray 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon

Serene Father's Day



Sorry about the inconsistency of my posts.  I am still dealing with some health issues and spend more time at the doctor appointments then I get to in my stamp room. I was able to spend my birthday money to buy myself some new goodies out of the new catalog.  I am always looking for quick and easy guy cards and with only one hand that works to it's full extent the easier the better! I have been requesting every year for SU to come out with piercing templates and this year they out did themselves.  We now not only have the coolest Framlets and Edglits but many of them also have matching piercing templates.  It makes it soooo much more simple than turn, pierce, adjust, pierce.  Now all I have to do is line it up and I have two options; inside pierce or outside pierce.....or both-which is what I did here.  Sorry the image is stamped on Whisper White but my lighting would not co-operate.


If you have not seen or used the new ink pads it is a MUST!  I am trying to adjust my budget to be able to replace all of my old ones with the new.  I have only had them a few short weeks and I already find myself drawn towards only using the new one....and the black is WONDERFUL!!!  The image is so much easier to ink up and so much crisper.  I tended to stay away from the solid images since I hard issues getting a crisp image, that will not be a problem any longer.


This card will be going out to my father and father-in-law tomorrow.  Don't forget to mail those cards to those special men in your life!

Details:
Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Serene Silhouettes
Paper: Baja Breeze, Not Quite Navy, Regals DSP, Early Espresso, Whisper White
Ink: Early Espresso, Not Quite Navy
Accessories: Apothecary Accent Framelits, Bitty Banners Framelits, Early Espresso Baker's Twine
