Priceless Birthday Card

I told you I had quite a few birthdays this month. I made this card for my sister-in-law. I have to say Priceless is my favorite stamp set. The swirls are great for backgrounds. It easily makes very nice cards/papercrafts.

This is the recipe for the card and all items were Stampin' Up!.

Cardstock: Ruby Red, Cameo Coral, Creamy Caramel, Chocolate Chip, and Handsome Hunter

Stamp Set: Priceless

Stamp Pads: Handsome Hunter and Ruby Red

Accessories: Circle Scallop Punch, 1 3/8 Circle Punch, and 1 1/4 Circle Punch, Straight Scallop Punch

Not Stampin" Up! Stickles Frosted Lace

I love this card!!

Lovely as a Tree Masculine Card Class

These are the cards I have come up with for my masculine card class. Almost all of the cards we tend to make they are more for the feminine side. That is the reason I wanted to have this class. I am sure we all have men or boys in our lives that we need to send cards to.

I used Stampin' Up! materials, of course. I used designer paper (Windsor Knot and Prestwick) that looked more masculine in color. I picked the Lovely as a Tree stamp set because it is so versatile. The cardstock I used (Night of Navy, Brocade Blue, Garden Green, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, So Saffron, Sage Shadow,and Basic Gray)matches the designer paper.

Now I need to get this class scheduled and figure out how much to charge. I can honestly say trying to figure out how much to charge can be very difficult for me.

Thanks for taking the time to look.

Cutie Pie Backpack

Different people were making this cute little backback and I wanted to make one also. I downloaded the template for it and unfortunately I can't remember where I got it at. If any of you know whose blog this was from please let me know and I will give them the credit. I made this for my neice that is going to be 13. I put Reeses peanut butter cups in the main section and money will be put in the little front pocket. I hope you are inspired from seeing this. I was thrilled with how this turned out in the end.

I used Stampin' Up! products to make this. Here is what I used:

Cardstock: Rose Red and Cutie Pie DSP (retired)

Accessories: Scallop Punch, Sizzix Buttons Die, and Rhinestone Brad Circle Ice and Fire

Once again please take the time to leave a comment. I really enjoy knowing what you think.

Brayered and Sponged Card

Hello everyone. I had to make another birthday card. This one is for my cousin that is turning 50! I figure a lot of people will be getting her cards with the number 50 on it. Well I didn't do that. I tried something similar to yesterday's card, but a little different effect. I put a scallop mask over the center to get the scalloped edge. I hope you enjoy this card. If you ever have any questions on how I made something I have on this blog just comment and ask or email me. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Here is the recipe for this card. All materials are Stampin' Up! unless noted.
