Card Color Change

The first card for today is a redo of yesterday's card.  Something was bothering me about the color combination so I took it apart and used Basic Gray instead of Island Indigo. I like this combination so much better. Sometimes I take a card apart many times before I am satisfied. I am so glad Stampin Up is coming out with another gray. It is lighter and will make some beautiful color combinations. I can't wait to use it!

Two Elements of Style Cards

Today's cards both use the Stampin Up! set Elements of Style. The background is a stamp called Paisley Print. Cardstock is Island Indigo and Pretty in Pink. I used VersaMark ink for the background and image. The sentiment is computer generated and sponged with Island Indigo ink. The butterfly was made with Embosslits Beautiful Wings and the flowers with Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack. Both are embellished with SU Pearls. Pink tulle was added. This was my first time to work with it but it glued down easily.
 

The next card is made with Elements of Style, also. I used Pool Party and Soft Suede cardstock. Background is Belle Toile. The embellishments and ink are the same as the other card. Ribbon is Pool Party satin.

Summer Snowflake Birthday Card

Today's card was made using the Flourishes set Summer Botanicals. Cardstock is Very Vanilla and Basic Black. Designer paper is called Beau Chateau. I used Basic Black ink for the image and embellished it with blue crystals. Die cuts are Spellbinders Lattice and Ribbon Tags.

Blooming with Kindness Birthday Blessings

Today's card was made using the SU set Blooming with Kindness. Cardstock is Basic Gray and Blushing Bride. Designer paper is Beau Chateau. Sentiment is computer generated. Dies are by Spellbinders and are Parisian Motifs and Fancy Framed Tags 2. I used Basic Gray ink for the images and sponged with Blushing Bride. Brads were added for embellishment. Finally, no pearls. I had to keep myself from using them this time!!!

Blooming with Kindness Birthday Card

Today's card was made with the StampIn Up! set Blooming with Kindness. I used Island Indigo, Very Vanilla and Red Ridinghood ink along with Island Indigo paper. The patterned paper is called Fan Fair.  some SU peals finished it off.

Happy Birthday Lace Card

Today's card is made with the Stampin Up! stamp called Beautiful Birthday and the set Reason to Smile. The designer paper from Stampin Up! is called Fan Fair. I love it because it has several lace prints that really can made your cards look vintage. The paper has been put through an embossing folder and pearls were added. The flowers were colored with Copic markers and popped up with dimensionals.

Kindness and Blossoms Card

Today's card was made using the Stampin Up! sets Blooming with Kindness and Betsy's Blossoms. Cardstock is Crumb Cake, Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo and Pear Pizzazz. Designer paper is by Stampin Up! I added pearls and dimensionals to make the flowers pop!
