Sesame Street Card




I am so excited about this Sesame Street Card. I found many like this on the splitcoaststampers.com gallery and I just had to make one for my Niece's 2nd birthday! After I made this card I remembered I have 2 more nieces turning 2 this year so I made a couple more to have on hand for them as well. Now I just feel so ahead of myself. I hope you love this little card as much as I do!

Supplies:

Paper: YoYo Yellow, Basic Black, Real Red, Brilliant Blue, Old Olive, Only Orange, Cameo Coral

Ink: Basic Black

Stamps: Birthday Whimsy

Accessories: Self Adhesive Eyes, Raffia Ribbon, Punches

Get Well Soon - Old School


All about the stamps:

I needed to make a get well card for my monthly card swap. The only Get Well sentiment stamp I have is from the retired Stampin Up set Bold and Basic Greetings. Since I was going old school with the sentiment I thought I'd keep with the theme and used the retired Stampin Up Sketch an Event set. Interestingly these are the stamp sets that I ordered after going to my first Stampin Up demonstration. These sets inspired me to want to make cards.

Here are the materials I used:

Paper: Barely Banana, Whisper White, Close to Cocoa
Ink: Barely Banana, Certainly Celery, Positively Pink, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Cream Grosgrain ribbon, Large Tag Punch, Small Tag Punch, Ticket Corner Punch, Clear Stickles

Masculine Birthday Card



Let's hope my husband doesn't stop by my blog before his birthday! Here is the card I made for his birthday. I used Stampin Up Sahara Sand, Basic Black, and Really Rust paper. I got the twine at the local Home Depot. The sentiment is from the Birthday Whimsy Stampin Up set.
