Tandem Bike Anniversary Card

Hello Friends,

Last week, I shared a picture tutorial on how to use the Bike Ride stamp set and Build a Bike dies.  When I was making the tutorial, I wondered about making a tandem bike with this set.  Was it possible?  Answer: Yes, you can make a tandem bike with the Bike Ride stamp set and Build a Bike dies.  Simply, snip off a bit of the back of one bike.

The tandem bike works fabulously for Anniversary cards.  I borrowed the sentiment and the dots stamp from the Petal Palette stamp set that is on sale for World Card Making Day.

 

Here's the rest of the sentiment.  I was able to stamp just one word from the stamp by inking the word with a marker and stamping.  The stack of books is also from the Bike Ride stamp set.

I really wanted to use my tandem bike on an anniversary card for my Son and Daughter-In-Law who are celebrating their 10th anniversary this year.  This Week's Freshly Made Sketches Card Sketch gave me the boost that I needed to complete my card.

 

 

World Card Making Day is just the kind of Day for us crafty types.  And while World Card Making Day is just one day, Stampin' Up! is offering 10% off select crafting projects for a whole week beginning today!  See what's on sale here.

 

  

Have a fabulous day,

A Wedding Card to Make in Minutes

Hello Friends,

Happy Monday!  Today's wedding or engagement card is pure elegance, but let me let you in on a little secret....it was a super simple card to make.  With the help of the Wonderful Moments stamp set by Stampin' Up! and a teeny strip of gorgeous Petal Promenade Designer Paper, I was able to pull this card together in minutes.

I'm also happy to report that the Petal Pink Stampin' Blends Markers worked fabulously for light skin tones.  I wanted to add just a touch of color to her white Wedding Gown, so I colored her bouquet and bow with Flirty Flamingo Blends.  And finally, I shaded her hair with Soft Suede Blends.

For just a touch of texture, I embossed a piece of Whisper White Card stock with the Ruffled Dynamic Impressions Embossing Folder.  And then, I cut 2 stitched sweethearts with my tried and true Stitched Labels Dies.

Quick Animal Outing Card

Hello Friends,

Today's card was a lot of fun to make.  Since the first time I saw the Nature's Poem Designer Paper, I knew that I would use this paper with the cute giraffe from the Animal Outings Stamp Set.  I even cut an extra Scalloped Oval.  So cute, doesn't this paper remind you of a giraffe?

 I've been on a real coloring jag with the addition of my new Stampin' Blends Markers.  Today, I colored the leaves with a mix of Granny Apple Green and Call Me Clover.  Mr. Giraffe was colored with a mix of Pineapple Punch, Calypso Coral and Soft Suede.

To finish off my card, I used two of my favorite embellishments-Leaf Ribbon and Frames Elements.
