Thank You cards....

 Nothing makes me happier than making cards and seeing the JOY in the recipients of those that receive them or my Customers who purchase and Give to their Loved ones!  Several Online orders have come in thru my website and Thank You's are going in the mail.  I like to make simple cards that are easy to recreate.  I hope the samples I send in the Thank you cards inspire you to create!



Fresh Freesia card base featuring Toadstool Gardens Designer paper.  I love embossing White card stock, it lends a Crisp Clean background.  And this To the Point Label punch with all the Borders and Sentiments is very versatile.


Granny Apple Green card base with Fruit Salad designer paper and 3D Plaid embossing.  Stampin' Up designer paper never disappoints!  And this card uses 1/2 a sheet cut 3X5 1/2.

Alternative Kit cards......

 I finally had some decent inspiration and created this Seagull card using the BACK of the Rainbow Kit card base.  Embossed with the Soft Waves embossing folder and adhered to a White card base.  This Seagull is "Sitting by the Dock of  the Bay......I wish I was!!"  Country Woods Designer paper was used for the Pier, a piece of Twine for an accent.  I fussy cut the Seagull and colored with Blends.


I turned the Clouds into SAND!  Using the Shell and Sand stamps.  Colored the Shells and used a Blending Brush to tone down the white with some Crumb Cake ink.  I love how this card turned out, the Seagulls really are adorable!


Then I took the Rainbow half and added the Mushrooms!  Magical and so on Trend!  The matching punch takes care of the Tops and Small stem.  I fussy cut the large stem.


I hope you are inspired to venture out and Mix & Match kit components!  It's going to be prime crafting weather these next couple of weeks.  A bit of grass is peeking thru the scooped paths, but this snow is sticking around way longer than we are used to!  SO get Crafty!!

Rainbow Celebration Kit

 This is a really cute kit and you can make it as directed or go rogue!  I made 3 cards as directed and 2 alternatives with the Friendly Seagulls stamp set. The Cloud adorned envelopes are so cute.  



The Confetti Rainbow arch can be popped up, but I chose to glue this element down and Pop up the Clouds and Sentiments.


These Sentiments are pre-printed and Mix and Match.  Or you can add your own Sentiments.
Below is an Open card.  I plan to cut my last card base in half and post that example in Monday.


Here are the cards I added Friendly Seagulls to as the focal point.  So cute and they fit right in with the Rainbow Background.  I used a Spotlight on Nature Die Circle to highlight the Seagull.  This Sentiment is pre-printed from the kit.


Finally I stamped the Seagull directly to the card front.  Colored with Blends(note the Blends did Bleed thru), so I suggest coloring on a Die cut.  I stamped the flock of Birds on the Rainbow and Clouds.  Sentiment from Friendly Seagulls stamped on the Cloud also.  This kit makes 6 cards with envelopes.  Or cut card bases in half, use your own envelopes and make 12 cards!
