Cards - For Everything



Cards - Animal Stories

The next three cards are all using the Animal Stories stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalogue.














Saw this design on another Stampin Up Demonstrators site. I loved the effect of just using one colour, graduating in strength. Thank you to the original designer.

I saw a similar designed card, but it had 3 hills, not the 2 as you see here on the right hand side. So I made up my own card design and layout using the new Animal Stories set from the Summer Mini Catalogue.

Gift Card Holder

Thanks Stampin Up for this great Gift Card Holder pattern. It is very simple and easy to make, and you can make it for any occasion.

Cards - Just Beachy

My hostess for Saturdays workshop asked for a Gel Card, so I came up with this one. I used 1 3/8' punch to make the circles, and the fish from Just Beachy set worked perfectly. The girls were all very pleased with their creations they took home. I hope they keep this set for us in next years catalogue.



Japanese Paper

My Mum gave me a selection of beautiful Japanese paper she bought on a recent holiday to Japan, so it was only fitting that I should design her birthday card using some of it. It co-ordinated beautifuly with Pretty In Pink, Rose Red and So Saffron card stock. She loved it.

Cards - Acetate

Now that we have White Stazon Ink, it is perfect to use on Acetate to create a great christmas card. I used elegant eggplant and lovely lilac markers to give a two colour effect on the stamp, to match the cardstock I chose. I was really pleased with the final result.

Cards - Just Beachy

Just Beachy is a very versatile stamp set. Here I have only used the Thongs/Flip Flops, combining it with a lovely verse I found on the internet and printed on Vellum Card stock. The colours I have used are Kiwi Kiss and Baja Breeze.
