Cards - Great Friend

Just been playing (instead of cooking dinner....oops) and came up with this design. I used the new Great Friend stamp set in the Spring Mini Catalogue. The butterflies are stamped on vellum card, thus giving the effect of flying.



Card - A Rose is a Rose

Made this one up for todays workshop. I used the Linen effect then the two step stamps, A Rose is a Rose. The colours are Regal Rose, Rose Red and Mellow Moss.

Cards - Crazy for Cupcakes

I used the Stampin Up Colour Wheel to co-ordinate these colours together, Taken with Teal, Tempting Turquiose, Blossom Blush, Apricot Appeal and Certainly Celery.
After colouring in the cupcakes with crayons, I applied Crystal Effects over the cherry and icing to add appeal.


Tri-Shutter Card

My eldest daughter just turned 16, this is the card I made for her.

I used DSP-Tea Party and matched the card stock to it and covered numbers with DSP for the feature on the front. The butterfly is from the "For a friend" set and also stamped the flower from Organic Grace on the inside panels.

Step Card - Friend

Just fininshed this one. The main feature is a beautiful "Friends" verse I found on the internet. Colour scheme is pretty in pink and sage shadow.

Cards - Crazy for Cupcakes

Made this one for a good friend, Fran.
Jenny my upline showed me a card in using this layout, like steps or stairs. I couldn't find any instructions on the web, so I made up my own measurements and used Crazy for Cupcakes and Baroque wheel for my design.
