Beautifully Happy Weekend!

We are ending this week with a colored in flower and split DSP. I used Pear Pizzazz base measuring 11 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches scored at 5 1/2 inches. The first layer is Pear Pizzazz measuring 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches with 2 Country Gingham DSP measuring 4 x 2 inches. I used the Loose Daisy embellishments on the corners, I adhered them with glue dots. I glued down and fussy cut the flower out and colored it in Old Olive, Polished Pink, Highland Heather, and Blackberry Bliss. The inside layers are Pear Pizzazz and Basic White measuring 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches and 4 x 5 1/4 inches respectively. It's inked in Momento to make it simple. 

 

Happy Flowers Wednesday!

Today was a little more involved. I used Pool Party for the base and Basic White. The DSP is from Country Gingham. Base is standard 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches scored at 4 1/4 inches. The first layer is Pool Party that is 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches and the Basic White layer is 4 x 5 1/4 inches. The DSP is 4 x 1 1/8 inches. I used Momento to stamp most of it then filled in the flowers with stamped off Garden Green and stamped off Daffodil Delight. Inside the layers are the same as on front, Pool Party and Basic White with DSP measuring 4 x 1/2 inch. 

Again my card came out simple but I think using the filler stamps gives the cards a little extra something. I also used a couple gem embellishments to make the card feel more fun. When crafting you don't have to make it complicated. When I try to make a super detailed card it still comes out looking simple. I think the card still had something. With the inside I just really liked the little bee. Come back on Friday for the end of the week cards and I am going to try and make a much more detailed card. 

 

Happy Flowers Monday!

This week is Beautifully Happy. Simple and elegant cards. I'm going to try and make them more involved as the week goes on. This card is in Real Red and Basic White with a piece of DSP from Country Gingham 6 x 6 inches. Standard measurements base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches scored at 4 1/4 inches. The DSP layer is 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches. The Basic White layer is only 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 inches. Everything is stamped in Momento and all the stamps are from the Beautifully Happy set you can get from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. I used embellishments and red ribbon from the Country Bouquet Suite in the mini catalog. All just simply glued together as even as possible and used glue dots to put on the bow and embellishments. The inside layers are Real Red measuring 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches and the Basic White layer is 4 x 5 1/4 inches. 

I can't wait to show you more of what you can do with this set this week and the color combos that you can use. This set can make such elegant cards with so many happy sentiments. Happy Monday! Contact me, I make cards as well for many occasions for prices and what I can do. Have a great week! 

 

Last 2 Sea Turtle Cards

 

This card is a base of Pear Pizzazz measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches scored at 4 1/4 inches. Layers of Pear Pizzazz measuring 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and a layer of Basic White measuring 4 x 5 1/4 inches. The back layer of the DSP is 1/8 inch larger than the DSP which is 1 5/8 x 3 inches. I popped it up on dimensionals. The "Thanks" is stamped in Momento from the Thanks a Bunch stamp set. The inside layers are the same measurements and colors as the ones on the front. I stamped the starfish in Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz on the reversible stamps. "a bunch" is from the Thanks a Bunch set and stamped in Momento. 

This card was fun to make. It's a card of Basic White in the standard measurements in landscape. The little squares are 1 x 1 inch and the Basic White squares on the back of the DSP are 1 1/8 x 1 1/8 inch. Then I popped the squares up on dimensionals. On the top layer that is 5 1/4 x 4 inches, I used the Loveliest Layers Decorative Masks to make the background. I brushed on Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz. The inside layers are the same as the front just like the other card and I stamped the reversible turtle for the inside. The "Love you" is from the Thanks a Bunch set and stamped in Momento.
