Look for that Rainbow!!

Do you have a friend that's going through a particularly difficult time right now? What a perfect card this is for that very person!
To me, rainbows are just delightful! They still stand as an icon of Gods promises to the human race. I love rainbows & my boys know that if I see one I can hardly resist taking a picture AND calling the whole family outside to see it!! So THIS card is just perfect! 
I used Rich Razzelberry for the base & on the "W". I used the new black Archival pad to stamp "RAINBOW" with then the little "smudge" stamps in the "Over the Rainbow" set to color the letters. I cut the "RAINBOW" out by hand but honestly it wasn't hard...at all!! The other rainbow colors are: 
Real Red 
Pumpkin Pie
Daffodil Delight 
Garden Green
Tempting Turquoise
Pacific Point
I added a few sharpie colored rhinestones for raindrops.  

Mustache Day!!

If you have a mustache wearer in your home here's the card for him!!
Plaid, bold & all masculine! I think the mustache framelit is hilarious so couldn't resist pulling it out again. Always Artichoke, Whisper White & some "non SU!" DSP made just a really cool combo!
I think the ladies in card class will love it!!

Rose Garden Wedding

Ok...Time for a confession.... I've had this Framelit set for several months now. I am finally getting up the courage to use it for class!! Can you believe that? Well, it's true. First of all there's lots of pieces for everyone to punch out & second, the part you DO keep is super fine & can tear easily! 
But LOOK!! Here it is on the class "menu"!  And no its not that hard. Basic Grey and Silver. Great for a wedding!

Peek-a-boo Birthday

Stars & stripes... Only a little different than the usual. This is the beauty of DSP!!
I love to see what the other side is! A lot of times I may not like both patterns of the double sided paper but if I like one side I'll purchase it anyway. 
But this is a really fun way to show off both sides!! Just choose your colors & card base but before you adhere the front DSP to your card, cut a1 1/2" slit right into the side of your DSP & fold! How easy is THAT?!? Great for edges of scrapbook pages too. 

Cheery Anything Card

This card can be used for anything... Thus the title "Anything Card"! 
Beautiful colors & a simple design... How much better can it get?!?
Island Indigo, Daffodil Delight and some discontinued DSP makes for a lovely card. I love the slant cut on this design, don't you? Very easy & fast!
Have fun!

A Watermelon Smile

A true summertime card to make you smile!! Watermelon Wonder, Whisper White & Cucumber Crush all put together in one place to make a scrumptious piece of juicy watermelon!!   
I used the Oval Framelits for the melon & the little heart punch cut in 1/2 & trimmed just a hair for the seeds. Isn't it just adorable?

Just Because I Care

Calypso Coral....
Such a lovely color & since this card is monochromatic you can really focus on just how beautiful it is!
I used the New! Seaside embossing folder for the background.  Then I used the New! DSP called "By the Shore". I love the new nautical stuff!!
Happy stamping!!
