Vellum in Flight

Some of my best cards come to me while I try to shut down and sleep.  Sometimes I remember them and sometimes I don't!  Here is one I remembered, yet I think it may be similar to another I posted earlier.  SU has to offer this Vellum in the new catalog, or I will run out!  I love it!


I used 2 patterns of the Vellum stack on this card.  Colored the flowers with a Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso Coral and Pear Pizzazz.  I cut the Butterfly out of the Vellum with small dashes and then colored the back with Calypso Coral marker, but it needed more, so I cut another Butterfly from Calypso Coral and that make this Butterfly Pop off the card front!  The sentiment is from another SAB item, Best Day Ever.  Sadly the Butterfly Framelits and stamps are still not available.  Hopefully they will be in stock soon. 

Best Day Ever

Sale-a-brate Vellum

One more Vellum card with Best Year Ever Paper peeking thru and You Brighten My Day sentiment and Best Ever Accessory pack!  This really has been the BEST Sale-a-bration EVER!!  So inspiring and cards just roll out of my mind onto card fronts!  Coordinating colors and products are the key and You Brighten My Day coordinates with 5 punches!

My Vellum is tacked under the ribbon only so it wanted to float up and made the picture look weird, so sorry for the thumb in the corner.  That is NOT an embellishment!
I love this sentiment and it is so TRUE.  We all need to take time and be Thankful every day!  I am so Thankful for all my wonderful customers and the friendships I have be Blessed with!

Nature's Perfection

This is my first card using this Sale-a-bration set and I wanted to add some vellum pattern, but just could not make it work.  I stamped the line flowers in Perfect Plum and the Allium in Marina Mist.  I used markers to color the stems and add some Perfect Plum to the Allium.  The Butterflies were stamped on Whisper White and colored with Daffodil Delight.  This Butterfly fits the Butterfly punch!  Rhinestones and a sentiment from Simply Wonderful finish this simple card.

Vellum Stripes

This card uses a technique shown on one of the SU videos.  I changed up the colors and cut the vellum 2 X 5 1/2.  So I can make 3 cards out of each piece of vellum.  Wild Wasabi, Melon Mambo and Daffodil Delight colored the vellum.  I stamped a Flower in Melon Mambo and Wild Wasabi.  Flowers were punched and 2 petals were trimmed out as leaves.  Super Simple card and again color combos are endless!  A few candy dots are added to bring out the Daffodil Delight.

Crisp Cantaloupe Vellum

I wanted to try something different with vellum and have been seeing Designer paper placed behind vellum.  So I combined the IN Color Paper stack Crisp Cantaloupe polka dots behind this floral piece of vellum.  Cut them both out with the Oval Framelits and then a Larger Oval in Calypso Coral. 

I colored the flower centers with the Calypso Coral marker.  Stamped a bit of Smoky Slate grunge and added a Calypso Coral Sentiment on the Crisp Cantaloupe card base.  Love this look and OH the Colors and Occasions you could use this card for, the possibilities are endless.

Paper Pumpkin Alternate cards......


I love patterned paper so of course I cut this in half to use as a mat on a Regular size card.  One is embossed with the Large Polka Dots and the other with Hexagons.  Added some Designer paper as a Balloon.  Used the Yellow thread included in the kit as a streamer for the Balloon.  On the other alternate I added a punched Flower and cut out a Butterfly from the SAB Vellum.  Always scraps laying around that can find their place on the next card!

I faux sewed this one with a Calypso Coral Marker


There is something about the color combo of Hello Honey, Black and White that just exudes Happy!!

Paper Pumpkin Samples

Here are few takes of this month's PP cards.  9 note cards and Pool Party envelopes.  Todays samples do not stray far from the originals.  I added a bit of bling.  I sewed while watching Survivor and did 6 YOU's in about an hour......granted I was watching TV so I would estimate about 10-15 minutes of sewing for each card.  Reminded me of my Mom and Grandma who were always sewing on something.  Their hands were never idle!!

Sheltering Easter Tree


I have been looking for stamp sets that can be used for Easter in the Occasions catty and I found one!  This could also be a Spring, Mother's Day, Father's Day or ALL occasion card.  I love how the Blossoms look so stippled on the tree.  I used Daffodil Delight and Blushing Bride ink.  Mossy Meadow and Early Expresso inks finish out this Very Vanilla card base.
