More Birthday Cards!

Tuesday, 12 September 2017

As I mentioned in a previous post, I have lots of family and friends with birthdays in September and October.  Here's a birthday card I made for my husband's birthday.  He has some high expectations for birthday cards - can't just be an ordinary card, I have to make it a fancy fold card and I have to beat the card I made last year.  It gets harder and harder.

This year I decided to make a never ending card which I've never made.  I found a tutorial online which was great but the size turned out to be 8x8".  It's fine for giving in person, but I wouldn't want to have to mail it!


I used a bunch of different SU! products on this card.

Here's some more pictures of the card



This card was definitely fun to make.  Next time I'll try to make it smaller so that I can send it to friends by mail!

Can you CASE it Friday - Hearts Come Home

Friday, 8 September 2017

It's time for another card CASE'd (Copy and Share Everything) from the Stampin' Up! catalogue.  This time I CASE'd a card from the Holiday Catalogue using the Hearts Come Home stamp set.  This is such a simple stamp set - it reminds me of some of the cards I remember from my childhood.  You can use the stamp set alone, or really pop up the card using the coordinating Hometown Greetings Edgelits.

The card I made is a simple card using only the stamps from the set.  Check it out.

First the card I CASE'd.

Now, here's my card.


I changed the size of the card and used different ribbon and punch.  Pretty close though.

Birthday Cards Galore

Tuesday, 5 September 2017

My family seems to have two times of the year for birthdays - March/April and September/October.  I spent part of the weekend working on birthday cards for family and friends and wanted to share one of the cards I made.  It was inspired by a card I saw by Julia Quinn that uses the Daisy Delight Bundle which I really loved so I had to CASE it.

Here's my card...

The card also uses the Wood Crate framelits for a perfect way to hold the days that overflow from it.  A pop of colour using Copper Foil for the leaves and back ground on the sentiment and then Gold Faceted Gems to finish off the flowers.  I think the recipient is going to love this card!

Can you CASE it Friday - Merry Little Christmas

Friday, 1 September 2017

It's finally here!  Today is the first day that you can order from the SU! Holiday Catalogue.  I'm so excited.  I love the new catalogue.

For today, I started out CASE'ing (Copy and Share Everything) a package from page 11 of the Holiday Catalogue.

I love the Merry Little Christmas suite of products - I think it is the crispness of the black and white together with the Old Olive!  This package is so pretty. Wouldn't you like to have it under your tree this year?  I decided that I would use it as inspiration for a card.

Here's what I came up with.

I had to change it up a little bit as I don't have all of the products.  The Striped Ribbon is lovely, but for a card, I decided that a big bow wouldn't be very practical when mailing a card.  That's the beauty of CASE'ing - you can adjust as you go.
