Special Card for a Special Day!

Comments: 3

This card is unique and seems like a great one to showcase on the last day of Sale-a-bration, Stampin’ Up!’s biggest promotion of the year.

I made this card when I attended a card class hosted by Diana Buckingham.  She is phenomenal at figuring out how to make a project.  This card is neat because when you pull the tab/ribbon the car moves along the slot.  Car from Diana's class

Notice the placement of the car in the photo below and how we stamped in the slot – I put xxooxx’s because I plan to send this card to my daughter.  It’s a great birthday card, isn’t it?  To make it a more masculine card, you might want to change up the colors and leave off the butterflies.

Happy Birthday

This was one of the most popular cards at my March Card Classes.  You can use the sponge dauber technique with any embossing folder.

Stamping Tips:  Use the Sponge Dauber to pick up ink directly from stamp pad and daub ink onto embossed areas of cardstock.  The lighter color of Crushed Curry on the cake image was achieved by stamping off once.

Stamp Set – Party Wishes
Cardstock – Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay, Whisper White
Ink – Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo
Accessories – Confetti Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Crushed Curry and Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Write Markers (to color in candle image), Party Punch Pack, Sponge Daubers, Snail Adhesive, Stampin’ Dimensionals

Time is running out….Sale-a-bration ends March 31st and the following offers will expire:

Easter Bunny

This Easter Bunny is peeking out to wish you a Happy Easter!  Hope you are able to gather together with friends and family to enjoy the holiday.

Stamp Set – Friends & Flowers, Crazy About You
Cardstock – Pink Pirouette, Whisper White, Schoolhouse and Neutrals Collection Designer Series Paper
Ink – Basic Gray
Accessories – 1-3/8″ and 2″ Circle Punches, Festive Flower Builder Punch, Deco Label Framelits, Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Pool Party Glitter Ribbon, Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Write Marker, Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush, Snail Adhesive, Stampin Dimensionals

This is one of the cards we made at my March Card Classes last week.  Some people changed the sentiment to make it a “Welcome Baby” card instead of an Easter card.

The Friends & Flowers stamp set gives you options to create the cute bunny as shown above, along with flowers, fish, and baby in a peapod.

The Festive Flower Builder Punch is great so you don’t have to fussy cut each image.
