Happy Birthday Card Holder

Happy Wednesday everyone! It is raining here today but we need rain once in awhile.

Today I'm showing you a card holder that holds 4 cards and envelopes. It is a nice holder to give as gifts. I'm using up my retired designer series papers which I've been hoarding for a long time to make this holder and cards. Got to use up all the old DSP so I can get new ones.

How to make this card holder:

-8 1/2" x 10" piece of cardstock for cover

-With the 11" side going across the top, score it at 5 1/4" and 5 3/4"
-With the 8 1/2" side going across the top, score it at 6" and 6 1/4"

-5 1/2" x 4 3/4" piece of cardstock for cover
-5 1/4" x 4 1/2" piece of designer series paper for cover
-two 2" x 5" pieces of designer series paper for inside pockets
-17" of ribbon
-2 brads to hold the pocket

Start with Cover and fold on all score lines. Cut on the 5 1/4" and 5 3/4" score lines from the bottom up to the 6" score line and trim off the tab in between to create the inside pockets. Use brads to hold the pockets in place. Wrap ribbon around the holder in line with the brads and adhere a glue dot to back of the brad and place ribbon over the brad to hide it.


Enjoy and have a great day!

Happy Stamping!

Cherish Roses

Hello, stampers! I made this card the same time as the one post here. I took a picture of them together but never post it. The layout is the same but the roses are different. I used the 5th Avenue Floral for this card. Stamped it three times and cut them out and layered them. I used the blender pen to coloured the rose.


Here is a picture of the two cards together. They are so pretty. I love roses. I'll buy every roses stamps SU sells. Can't get enough of them.

Here is the inside of both cards. I noramlly leave the inside blank but people tells me I need to have some kind of saying inside so I listen.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Happy Stamping!

New Stamp and Papers

Hello, stampers! Hope you did something special for Father's Day for your husband and father. We went to church and my DH made Chinese Dim Sum for lunch. Yes! He cooked something special for his own Father's Day. He is awesome! He loves to cook and crazy about Dim Sum.

Anyway, this card was made with the level 3 hostess set Kind & Caring Thoughts. I did the Rock n' Roll technique for the flower and stamped it onto a Whisper White scallop circle cardstock. I used the new Rich Razzleberry and Crushed Curry In Color cardstock for this card. They are a really pretty colors.

Happy Stamping!

Together Forever

Another wedding card I made. I used the retired Together Forever stamp set to make this card. The background was embossed with clear embossing powder. The flowers was cut out and mounted onto the Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the flower image twice and cut the big and small flowers out. Fasten them together with a brad and mounted it onto the cs with a dimensional. I stamped the sentiment and punched it out with a large oval punch and mounted onto a Basic Black scallop oval cs. Mounted the sentiment onto the card.

Thanks for staopping by and have a great day!

Happy Stamping!

Wedding Week

Good day everyone! Beautiful sunny day here. Love the sunshine.

Have a wedding to go to this Saturday so I made a lot of different wedding cards for my friends and myself. Here's one of them. I'll show you one at a time so you'll come back for more. lol

I used God's Blessings level 1 hostess set, which is retiring this month, for this card. I used markers to coloured in the flower and butterfly. I should've used the blender pen instead to blend the leaves better. The background was done using the SU Background 1 texturz plate.

Thanks for stopping!

NSR - Finally Finished

I finally finished sewing these pillow cases for a lady at church. They are really pretty IRL. The opening was done with an invisible zipper for slipping a premade pillow. I also sewed all the piping. Boy, was it a challenge for me. I enjoyed making them though.
