Sale-a-bration Sneek Peek
I needed to make a baby card and thought of the Sale-a-bration Ice Cream Parlor DSP. The DSP also comes with a coordinating Accents Pack-it's great! Especially since we don't know if it's a boy or a girl, I think this paper works great for this card! I also used this week's FTL layout at Clean and Simple Stamping here.
The card stock base is Daffodil Delight and I added some Old Olive before adding the striped DSP from Ice Cream Parlor. The dotted and scallop print is also from the Ice Cream Parlor DSP. I stamped the turtle from Fox and Friends in Old Olive and punched it out with the 1 3/8 inch Circle punch. I used my Circles #2 Bigz die to cut out the Old Olive circle behind the Whisper White one. Those were then popped up with Stampin dimensionals. Welcome baby from Short and Sweet was stamped in Old Olive then punched out with the Word Window punch. A piece of Peach Parfait card stock was run thru the Scallop Edge border punch and I added some dots with my White gel pen. Finally, I stamped the diaper pin from Short and Sweet in Peach Parfait, punched it out with the 1/2 inch Circle punch and popped it up with a Stampin dimensional.
Here's my recipe:

Love Letter DSP Stationary Gift Set
This stationary gift set is a present I made for my aunt. The top picture shows the outside of the portfolio and the bottom pic is of the note cards and envelopes on the inside.
This is super easy to make. Just take an 8 1/2 by 11 piece of card stock and score and fold in half at 5 1/2. Then score the other end at 2 inches, fold up and adhere the side flaps only with Sticky Strip.
The note cards are just 8 1/2 by 11 pieces of card stock cut in 4 pieces of 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 inches. And the Very Vanilla was cut to 4 by 5 1/4 inches.
I used two patterns from the Love Letter DSP on the front. I stamped the images from Artistic Etchings on Very Vanilla with Riding Hood Red and Basic Black. The Eiffel Tower was cut out and popped up with Stampin dimensionals. Amour was punched out with the 1 3/8 by 5/8 inch oval punch. That was layered onto a Basic Black piece punched with the 1 3/4 by 7/8 inch Oval punch and then onto a Riding Hood Red piece punched with the Scallop Oval punch. A piece of retired 1 1/4 inch Riding Hood Red Striped grosgrain ribbon, adhered with Sticky Strip ties nicely to close the folder.
For the note cards I stamped the "j" from Contempo Alphabet in Basic Black and Riding Hood Red on Very Vanilla. and used the 1 1/4 inch Circle punch. That was layered onto a Riding Hood Red/Basic Black piece punched with the 1 3/8 inch Circle punch and then onto a Riding Hood Red/Basic Black piece punched with the 1 3/4 inch Scallop Circle punch and popped up with Stampin dimensionals.

I colored in part of the bells stamp from Bells & Boughs with the Always Artichoke and Cherry Cobbler Stampin write markers and stamped that on some Very Vanilla. That was punched out with the 1 1/4 inch Square punch and layered on to an Artichoke piece punched with the 1 3/8 inch Square punch. I popped those squares up with Stampin dimensionals. Finally, some 1/2 inch Always Artichoke seam binding finishes it off.
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Bells & Boughs
Papers: Very Vanilla, Always Artichoke, Crumb Cake, Deck the Halls DSP
Inks: Always Artichoke and Cherry Cobbler Stampin write markers
Accessories: 1 1/4 inch and 1 3/8 inch Square punches, 1/2 inch Always Artichoke seam binding, Stampin dimensionals

Clean and Simple FTL#119 Thinking of You
I made this Thinking of You card for the Clean and Simple FTL#119 here. I used my color coach for the color combo-Early Espresso, Marina Mist and Wild Wasabi.
The base is Marina Mist card stock. I ran a piece of that thru the Big Shot with the Perfect Details Texturz Plates and adhered it to the bottom of the card. I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the stem and flowers from Apple Blossoms on Whisper White in Wild Wasabi, Marina Mist and Early Espresso. I stamped the small flower in Early Espresso and punched it out with the 1 inch Circle punch, popped it up with a Stampin dimensional and added a Wild Wasabi square. Thinking of You from Sincere Salutations was stamped in Marina Mist and punched out with the Scallop Oval punch. Finally, a piece of 3/8 inch Marina Mist taffeta ribbon finishes it off.
Here's my recipe:

This is a birthday card for the PPA#71 Color Challenge here. The colors are Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz and Regal Rose.
Early Espresso is the card stock base and I added some DSP from Deck the Halls.

SUO Challenge#7 CAS Christmas
I made this quick card for the SUO Challenge #7 here. The challenge is to make a clean and simple Christmas card and this one is pretty clean and simple.

I stamped the sentiment from Snow Swirled in Whisper White Craft ink on Old Olive. I embossed that with White Stampin' Emboss powder. Then I punched it out with the 2 by 1 3/8 inch XL Oval punch and popped it up with Stampin' dimensionals. Finally, a piece of 5/8 inch Real Red Satin ribbon finishes it off.

A Mojo Christmas Card
This is my take on the MOJO#167 sketch here.
It starts with a Real Red card stock base and I added different patterns from the Candy Cane Christmas Specialty DSP. I used the Circles#2 Big Shot die and the following circle punches for all the circles: 1 1/4 inch and 1 3/8 inch Large circle punches and the 1 3/4 inch XL large circle punch. The snowman stamp from Tags til Christmas was colored with Baha Breeze and Real Red Stampin write markers and punched out with the XL 1 3/4 in circle punch. The presents from A Cute Christmas were stamped in Real Red and colored with Baha Breeze, Blushing Bride, Garden Green and Real Red Stampin write markers. I punched a Baha Breeze and Real Red snowflake with the XL Snowflake punch and used the retired Small Star punch for a Whisper White star. Finally, a little piece of 1/8 inch Real Red taffeta finishes it off.
Here's my recipe:
