A note card to use for any occasion created using Stampin Up's Grateful Bunch stamp set and punched out with their Blossom Bunch punch.  The ferns are from their Butterfly basics stamp set. Sweet Sugarplum and Tranquil Tide inks and enamel shapes. 

This second version used Tempting Turquoise and Sweet Sugarplum inks.

Another birthday card using the Balloon Adventures stamps set and Balloon Pop-up dies from Stampin Up.  A fun and easy birthday card to make.

Another Christmas card, this time using a holiday colored bird and branch stamped with Stampin Up's Best Birds stamp set and die cut with their coordinating Birds and Blooms Thinlits Die.  The circles were cut with their Circle Stitched dies.  This sentiment is from Hero Arts stamp set CL722.

Made this Halloween card for a little friend for the upcoming holiday.  It was customized from a Cricut Design Space project and then cut on my Cricut Explore.  Simple but fun.

Three bright and fun cards. First I created a print and cut image with a bird nest and branch using my Cricut Explore.   The birds and sentiments were stamped using Stampin' Up's Best Birds stamp set and colored with Bermuda Bay, and Pacific Point and Daffodil Delight  Inks.  The various flowers are from the SU Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies.  These are A7 size cards.

Made several cards using the new Happy Birthday Thinlits die from Stampin Up with my sister-in-law this past week.  I used several combinations of ink and applied them to watercolor paper with my aqua brushes. 

Let them dry and then die cut them.  I love this technique. 
And then on this one we embossed the background mat using Stampin Up's Confetti die.  And lastly added some fun little sequins and die cut butterflies.


 Look at all the A7 size cards we made.

A simple Christmas card.  The background mat was embossed using Anna Griffin's Holly Berry Swirls.  The cute little snowgirl image was found on Google and a print and cut done using Cricut Explore and Cricut design space.  A couple of red rhinestones and some clear Wink of Stella and you're done.

This birthday card was created using Stampin Up's Falling Flowers stamp set and the coordinating May Flowers Framelits for the flowers and leaves, which were stamped with their Elegant Eggplant and Pear Pizzazz inks.  The butterfly was die cut with their Butterflies Thinlits dies. The sentiment is from their Best Birds stamp set.

This birthday card was created using flowers and leaves from Stampin Up's Falling Flowers stamp set and the coordinating May Flowers Framelits.  I used their Berry Burst and Whisper White inks. The sentiment is from their Butterfly Basics stamp set.

This birthday shaker card was created with the Balloon Pop-up Thinlits dies from Stampin Up.  

Here is another Birthday card cut using Stampin Up's Balloon Pop-up Thinlets Dies to cut the bows for these party packages.  The Sentiment was stamped and embossed using their Stylized Birthday stamp.

Worked this week on some Balloon Adventures Birthday Cards by Stampin Up.  Wanted something simple that could be used for anyone.  The background on this first card was stamped using the confetti stamp in the stamp set.  The balloons were die cut using their coordinating Balloon Pop-Up Thinlits dies. And the sentiment was cut with their Happy Birthday Thinlits die. 

Here are a few more examples using the same set:

The  outlined leaves on this card I designed, were stamped using Stampin Up's Colorful Seasons set using Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Tranquil Tide, Always Artichoke, Rose Red and Fresh Fig inks.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set. After stamping the leaves I used one of SU's Blender Pens to sort of water color the leaves. Then for some dimension added a few die cut leaves from the coordinating Seasonal Layers Thinlets.  

This Thank You card was created using Stampin Up's Daisy Delight stamp set (Daisies - Lemon Lime Twist, Tangerine Tango ink with Crushed Curry Centers)and Daisy punch and the leaves were stamped from their Falling Flowers stamp set (Garden Green ink)and then die cut with the coordinating May Flowers Framelits dies. The sentiment is also from the Daisy Delight set.  I water colored the background using Lemon Lime Twist ink.

Another Happy Birthday Card using Stampin Up's Flower Shop stamp set.  The flowers  and background were stamped using Daffodil Delight and Pacific Point inks.  I added some buttons to the center of the flowers and a few blue rhinestones. The sentiment is from the Best Birds stamp set and added to a die cut using one of the SU Stitched Shaped oval Framelits dies.   

This Birthday card was based on a PIP by Sandra from Violet vs Purple. The flowers were stamped using Stampin Up's Daisy Delight stamp set and Calypso Coral Ink.  An embossed panel was added to the side of the card.  The sentiment is from SU's Best Birds stamp set. 

This card was created using Stampin Up's Happy Birthday Thinlets die.  I water colored the flowers and leaves that I had stamped using SU Grateful Bunch stamp set with Memento Ink, then spattered the background using their Aqua Painters. I used SU Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, and Old Olive inks for the water colors.  

This card was CASEd from a card made by Jan B and posted on You Tube.  It was actually the first card I made from Stampin Up's Daisy Delight stamp set.  It is a layered stamp set - the flower stems are stamped and then the flowers and buds aligned and stamped separately.  I embellished the daisies with some pearls and added Bitty Butterflies stamped with the SU Papillion Potpourri stamp set. I used SU Sweet Sugarplum and Old Olive inks.  And then added a drop of ink to my SU spritzer to add some color to the background. The sentiment was a die cut created in Cricut design space.

The first card was stamped using Stampin Up's Flower Shop stamp set and Melon Mambo ink.  Then I cut out the "thank you" on my Cricut explore air. I love this effect and so I printed out another mat with one of my favorite pictures from my perennial gardens.  Cut out the letters same as before.  I am keeping this in mind for some other photo style cards as I have lots of great flower and scenic pictures.

This Cricut die cut card from their Create-A-Critter set was made for a special little girl who loves Monkeys and is soon to celebrate her 2nd birthday.
