Are you looking for quick and easy Birthday Cards?

Tuesday, 11 July 2017

I wanted to share with you some cards that are quick and easy to make when you need a Birthday card.  These cards use the Stylized Birthday stamp.

First, two cards that use the Stylized Birthday stamp set (Item 141828).  This is a great stamp and you can use it to with a little bit of Designer Series Paper from the Color Theory Paper Stack (Item 144193) - paint chips are definitely on trend at the moment, and a few Glitter Enamel Dots (Item 144200), you have a great card.  Just change the colours and it's perfect for masculine or feminine birthdays.

I love Berry Burst from the new In Colours and this card that I made definitely shows it off.

The next card was made by my friend Ginny Duncan and she's made a fancy fold card using the same stamp, but has also added some swirls cut out using the Swirly Scribbles Thinlit Dies (Item 141497).


Here's some samples from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue (Page 80) using the stamp set.

Interested in placing an order? You can go to my Online Store or email me your order.  Remember if you are shopping through the Online Store and your order is less than $200, use my Host Code CYH6FWC6 and I'll send you a set of 4 cards as a Thank You gift including the instructions so you can make at home.
And to make it even better!  Bonus Days are back! For every $60 CAD you or you spend July 1–31 (before shipping and tax), you’ll get a $6 CAD Bonus Days coupon that you can use August 1–31. Woohoo!  

Happy Stamping!

Summer has finally arrived

Tuesday, 4 July 2017

It was a lovely and warm weekend on Vancouver Island and we celebrated Canada's 150th Birthday!  It was amazing to see the "sea of red and white" at the celebrations at Transfer Beach on Saturday!  I received this amazing card from my friend Diane Evans in my monthly swap.  I love how she created it using the Colorful Seasons stamp set (Item 143726) and coordinating Seasonal Layers Thinlits (Item 143751) that are available in the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue.
Color Theory 

I wanted to share a card that I made using the Crafting Forever stampset (Item 143958) and two of the new In Colours - Lemon Lime Twist and Tranquil Tide.  I also used the new Ruffled embossing folder (Item 143699) to add some texture to the background.
I love this combination together.  Feels very summery to me.  

Here's list of the supplies I used:

It sure didn't take long to get back to a crafting mess :)

Can you spot one of my favourite new bundles from the Annual Catalogue?  Yep, it's Daisy Delight.  I know that the punch is back order - it has been a favourite of everyone! but it is expected back in stock as of June 26th.

Check out this amazing card made by my friend Liane Binder using the same stamp set and punch and showing off some of the new In Colours - Tranquil Tide and Lemon Lime Twist.  Aren't they yummy!
