You Made My Day

You Made My Day!  This is another card using the Golden Honey Designer Series Paper.

Who doesn't like a receiving a card -- especially if it is to let you know how much you are appreciated?  This says "You Made My Day" from the Here's A Card stamp set.  

This is a black and white design, so I was able to use whatever I wanted.  I used Petal Pink for the card base and coloring in the flowers.  I put a layer of Basic Black between the card base and paper. I used one of my stitched framelits for the outline and popped this up with a dimensional.  

I'll be selling all of these cards in my store, so if you want one, be sure to let me know!

Golden Honey Hello

Second day of Golden Honey!  Today's share is a variation of cards I found on Pinterest using the Golden Honey Designer Series Papers.

I will be alternating phrases so you don't get bored!  

Who doesn't like a "just because" card?  This says "Hello there" from the Here's A Card stamp set.  Again, you see the bees and hives are colored in.  I added another piece of Golden Honey and layered on the Gold Foil-Edged card.  I used one of my stitched framelits for the outline and popped this up with a dimensional.  

I'll be selling all of these cards in my store, so if you want one, be sure to let me know!  Don't worry, I'll be making more since I still have another full sheet of this paper!

Bumble Bee Birthday

Today's share is a card I made after I was inspired by all the beautiful designs on Pinterest using the Golden Honey Designer Series Papers I received from Sale-A-Bration.  I just now was able to do a little research and creativity.

I will be featuring a variety of cards and will consolidate those that are similar so as not to flood you with my designs!

First up is the Happy Birthday using the Golden Honey DSP.  I colored in the white of the hives and bumble bees and then added a strip of glimmer paper over black cardstock for a contrast.  The DSP is mounted onto Stampin' Up! retired Gold Foil Edged Cards & Envelopes.   I only made one of these so far.

I'll be selling these so if you want one, be sure to let me know!  Don't worry, I'll be making more since I still have another full sheet of this paper!

Fun Fold Card Using Forever Greenery

Today's share is a fun fold card I made using the Forever Greenery DSP.  I was inspired by both Jackie B. and Melissa K. searching through Pinterest for card ideas.  

I think I'm going to add leaves to the left side to help hold the panel down, what do you think?

I like how this turned out and was creating from my scribbled notes.  We'll be making this card in our next 3-card class on July 21st at 6 PM and again on July 28th at 2 PM!

I've seen this card made so many different ways.  On this one, we're slipping a little piece of cardstock under the white layer on the inside.  I also used two pieces of Forever Greenery from my paper share to create this card.

Hope to see you in class soon!

Last A Lifetime

Here are two Triangle Fold cards I created using the stamp set, Last A Lifetime.  The papers are from the Ornate Garden Specialty Papers, and I used the Coordinating Ornate dies and framelits (two different sets).  

This is the card partially open -- and then the inside:

The colors I used are two new In Colors Bumble Bee and Just Jade.  If you would like to have a class on the Triangle Fold, please let  me know -- I'll be glad to make a card for card class!  

Happy Crafting!

Completed Two Tea Bag Holder

This is the Two Tea Bag holder from the All My Love paper share -- by adding more cardstock and designer series papers, I was able to complete this project.. The initial 4 X 6 in the paper shares is what I used to cover the fronts.  And I even got the hearts in the same direction!!

Here's the middle piece -- another piece of coordinating All My Love dsp.  

And finally, the inside words. 

If you took my class for the Two Tea Bag and Kleenex holders, let me know if you want any more kits.  I still have a few left over from our class!  If you would like to schedule a class with me to learn how to make these, leave me a comment!

Two More Cards with All My Love DSP

Today's share is another set of two cards created by using one piece of 4 X 6 All My Love Designer Series Papers.  We used this layout in one of our Birthday Card classes last year.

I cut the DSP to 4 X 5-1/4 and then cut it diagonally.  I layered this on a Soft Seafoam base.  I worked a little on this yesterday to get it finished. 

I wasn't crazy about the side piece so here's what I did.  I turned it, added a piece of Flirty Flamingo cardstock.  This reminds me of when my sisters and I get together--we laugh so hard we cannot see straight.  Note the Laughing sentiment is a little off?  Well, enough said!

The next card is the one I was playing with.  I added a piece of cardstock embossed with the Tufted embossing folder and then ribbon diagonally.  

I hope you enjoy today's cards.  If you've made cards using your paper share, be sure to post some photos!

Update on All My Love Cards

Today's share are three of the cards that I finished with words and embellishments from the All My Love Designer Series Papers.  

These are just to give you ideas on how to use up your DSP.  These are simple and easy to mail.  

On the above card, I added a piece of glitter ribbon and stamped words from a retired stamp set.  I used the Everyday Label punch on the edges.  

On the below card, I just added my sentiment.

On this card, I thought it needed a little more so I added a piece of Petal Pink and embossed it with the Tufted embossing folder.  Again, I added a piece of glimmer ribbon and then popped my sentiment up on dimensionals.  

I hope you are enjoying these updates!  More to come hopefully tomorrow!
