Happy Birthday To You To You!

DSC_0749 Balloons

Let someone know that you want to say happy birthday, but don’t stop there.  This card repeats “to you” with Melon Mambo.  You know I had to use It’s My Party Paper and of course the Balloon Bouquet Punch.  You  can’t just punch Melon Mambo and black, you need something to make them stand out. So just simply add a silver glimmer paper to do the job.    The balloons need to be anchored down with the Baker’s Twine Combo Pack.  I used the Black/Mambo. I think Stampin’ Up! did awesome job pairing Black and Melon Mambo.  What do you think? Remember to share  your comments in the comment section below. So I followed it thorough with the black cardstock. Then I chose to dig out my Endless Birthday Wishes.  This stamp is in the annual catalog has a wonderful variety of words to celebrate that special occasion.

What Is Your Top Five……?

DSC_0747 Curvy Trio Card

 

My question is what is your top five favorite Stampin’ Up! punches?  This is our tool of the week.  What do you turn to most often?  Is it one of the flower punches or the versatile cupcake builder punch?  I am going to start with a simple punch that just adds something to your cards. It is the Curvy Trio Punch that is part of the weekly deals which ends tonight at midnight.  The butterflies are not punches, but rather the Butterfly Thinlit Die.  The inside white piece is stamped with the What I Love stamp which is one you can choose for FREE with a $50 purchase. You stamp off and then stamp with Smoky Slate using only of the layers of the stamp.  I think this makes a beautiful birthday or Mother’s Day card. What do you think?

You don’t want to miss this.  I will be having a Virtual Facebook Party starting on Tuesday at 12:00 pm.  So hop on over to https://www.facebook.com/events/upcoming and click on invite. Then join me with your lunch and let us have some fun. You will want to check in over the next three days to see what is happening.  There will be great information and prizes.

Window into Spring – Are You Ready?

DSC_0744 Window into Spring

This is Card Fold Friday Video and we are doing a window, but just not any window card.  You will notice it folds differently.  So don’t think of just cutting a hole.  Watch the video and see what I mean.  Notice how it opens totally differently which will make your card unique.

 

 

I want you to think what could you stamp in place of Sheltering Tree.  Maybe the Balloon Celebration or Birthday Blooms stamp set. Stampin’ Up! has many great stamps that would work.  What is nice about this style card is that it works for every occasion.  Naturally, you could use a different embossing folder.  Check out the great selection in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. I invite you create your own post it my Facebook page.
