Nautical Thinking of You

I love this DSP!! It's called By The Shore & it is just WAAAAY cool!!

Here's the inside. I used the soft wavy side to look like...well ...water!!

Then I punched a 2 1/2" Circle for a window in the front of the card. To add a bit of "ocean-y depth, I stamped some coral from the By The Tide set so you can see it thru the window. I took the DSP with the little fish & cut out 7 little fish (really,it wasn't hard!) and put them hither & yon over & in the window. 

I then added some sequin "bubbles" to top it off! OH!! And the GREETING!? Isn't that layered look awesome?!? I used the Decorative Label, Curly Label & 2 1/4" circle punches. So cute!!

Hardwood Horse

Love these colors together! 

Soft Sky & Chocolate Chip make an amazing combo! 

I used the Hardwood background stamp on the Soft Sky to make a rustic back drop, then applied the ink "ink to paper" style to give dimension to the edges. A lovely masculine card!

Happy stamping!!

Bright Summer Salad

A great colorful healthy salad!!

Fruit Pizza!!

There's nothing like fruit pizza in the summer!! Here's what we had at card class...

A Dahlia Celebration

Dahlias are such lovely flowers & this one is no different! This is from the May Flowers framelit set. And this PAPER!!!

Oooohhh it's so so pretty! I'm not really a flowery paper person but I had to get this one!! 

I used Blushing Bride for the card base then Sweet Sugarplum for the front layer base.  

Layers make your card more attractive ...Plus you get to use more colors! 

Have fun changing this card up to make it your own!!

Congrats Lady Bug!!

Lady bugs, lady bugs everywhere!!!

Isn't this THE cutest ladybug card you've ever seen?!?

You need 3 (2 3/8") Scallop Circles creased in the SAME spot so the scallops match. Then adhere the sides together so they are 3D like in the pictures. I used a standard hole punch for antenna "knobs" & spots. And 1" circle for his head. Any photopolymer saying that's long will work. Just curve it on the block & stick it down well.
