An Over-the-Top Happy Birthday

I participated in an Over-the-Top (WOW) Birthday swap at 2014 Convention and I never shared my creation.  

First of all, this is a little bit different fold.  On the cover, the flap tucks neatly and securely into the For You scallop, each layer is between dimensionals.  The Happy Birthday is embossed in Silver embossing powder.  The left panel is Crushed Curry co'renations cardstock, embossed and sanded for the perfect distressing.  I wheeled the Amazing Accent in Coastal Cabana ink on an angle on the Coastal Cabana piece.  Stretch trim and three basic rhinestone jewels top off the front of this masterpiece.    

Here's the card half-way open, so you can see the fold.  

Not much on this inside, but I did pierce the top and bottom panel.  

Making 16 of these was a little nutty :) But this is one of my favorite cards I've ever made.  I dropped the original in the mail today. I sent it to Denise, I hope she'll love it as much as I do. 

Do you think this was a WOW card?

Get Well

Using scraps again.....Look how simple this card is.  Use the scheme from the DSP to dictate the color pallet - that makes creating so easy!  And a bit of bling finishes the scrappy card.

Perfectly Penned is one of the SINGLE stamp sets you can purchase.  You don't need to purchase the entire set - you can pick the greeting(s) you want.

Have a great day!

Simple Summer Smooches

This is a cute card that I received as a swap that I HAD to recreate.  Swapping with friends and teammates is so much fun!  I had fun creating in April with Summer Smooches and now we can create all year long with these fun colors and the summer smooch product line!  A little snippet of DSP makes this card!  

I was invited to southern Virginia this weekend to stamp and snack and discuss social media!  Stamping has introduced me to some amazing friends.  I can't wait to see these ladies!  I've been working on my shoebox swap, and after the week and heat I've had...I'm looking forward to a couple days away!  I'll be sure to share our projects with you next week.

Raining Flowers

This card MADE ME buy this stamp set.  Friends are awesome that way!  Two weeks ago, I participated in a team swap and Jen had us create this card.  Wow; It was awesome.  I came home and put it on my must-have stamp list.  What do you think?

To get the oh-so-matchy matchy Midnight Muse, I stamped off two times for the inside flowers and left the outline in the original saturated midnight muse.
