Masculine MojoMonday Card

Here's a quick, masculine Valentine's card using the MojoMonday Sketch#277 here. I used the Beyond Plaid stamp set for the red pattern part and the Got Treats stamp set for the other panel. And I ran some Basic Gray card stock thru the Honeycomb embossing folder.

Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Got Treats and Beyond Plaid
Papers: Whisper White, Basic Gray, Real Red
Inks: Real Red
Accessories: Honeycomb embossing folder, 3/16' Neutrals brads, Fashionable Hearts Embossing folder, Stampin' dimensionals 

Halloween Shadow Box

I found this box at the Dollar Tree and thought I'd try making a Halloween decoration.
I painted it with some black acrylic paint. I cut out 8 different papers from the Frightful Sight DSP and glued them down with the Anywhere Glue Stick. I stamped the cat from Out on a Limb in Basic Black. The pumpkin is from Got Treats and I colored that with my Old Olive and Cajun Craze Stampin' Write markers. Spooky, the witches hat and the greeting are all from Wicked Cool and I stamped those in Old Olive, Cajun Craze and Basic Black. I punched  out the greeting with the Small Oval punch and layered it onto a Cajun Craze circle punched with the 1 inch Circle punch. All the items were popped up with Stampin' dimensionals.  I painted over everything with a coat of Mod Podge glue to seal it. Finally, I attached some 1/2 inch Old Olive Scallop Dots Ribbon for a hanger.

Here's my recipe:
Stamps: Out on a Limb and Wicked Cool, Got Treats
Papers: Whisper White, Cajun Craze and Frightful Sight DSP
Inks: Basic Black, Cajun Craze, Old Olive
Accessories: Stampin' dimensionals, Anywhere Glue Stick, 1/2 inch Old Olive Scallop Dots ribbon, Dollar Tree shadow box, black acrylic paint, Mod Podge glue

Got Green for Two Challenges

This St. Patrick's Day card was made using the Clean & Simple Stamping FTL#131 here, and the Stampin' Celebration Inspiration Challenge#43 here.
The base is Early Espresso card stock and I added some Old Olive DSP from the Patterns DSP Brights Stack. I ran two pieces of Old Olive thru the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch. I stamped the shamrock from Got Treats in Old Olive on Whisper White twice, punching one out with the 1 1/4 inch Circle punch and the other out with the 1 3/8 inch Circle punch.  I stamped the shamrock from So Happy For You in Old Olive and punched that out with the 1 inch Circle punch. I punched a 1 3/8 inch Circle and 1 3/4 inch Scallop Circle in Old Olive. I punched a  1 1/4 inch Circle and Modern Label punch in Early Espresso. All of the circles were popped up with Stampin' dimensionals. Finally, Got Green was stamped in Old Olive on Whisper White and punched out with the Word Window punch.

Happy 16th Birthday Megan!

It's my beautiful daughter's 16th birthday today-Happy Birthday Megan! The wrapping paper was my inspiration for the colors and I used the Clean & Simple FTL#117 here to make this bright and cheery card for my bright, beautiful, funny, loving daughter! She goes for her drivers licence test on Monday so we'll see what happens then.
I used Crumb Cake for the card stock base. Then I added some Real Red and DSP from the Patterns DSP Brights stack. I colored the cupcake from Got Treats with the Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie and Tempting Turquoise Stampin write markers and punched that out with the XL 1 3/4 inch Circle punch. I added a Pumpkin Pie piece punched with the XL Fancy Flower punch. I colored "Sweet" from Got Treats with the Real Red Stampin write marker and 16 from a non-SU set. That was punched with the 1 1/4 inch circle punch and added to a Real Red piece punched with the 1 3/8 inch circle punch. I used the Perfect Plum and Real Red Stampin write markers to color the cupcake from On a Pedestal, punched it out with the 1 3/8 inch circle punch. That was layered onto a Perfect Plum piece punched with the 1 3/4 in XL Scallop circle punch. A strip of Tempting Turquoise was run thru the Scallop Edge border punch. Finally, Happy Birthday from On Your Birthday was stamped in Real Red and punched out with the Word Window punch.

Clean & Simple FTL#113 Happy Birthday

This birthday card is for the Clean and Simple FTL#113 here.

I stamped Happy Birthday from On Your Birthday in Early Espresso. Finally, a piece of 1/2 inch Blushing Bride stitched-poly ribbon finishes it off.
