Blue Birthday Butterflies

It's Try Stampin' On Tuesday time!  Here is my take for our sketch challenge this week, plus the twist of using black, white and one other color.  Once again I didn't watch for the theme until after I had it made!  I need to pay closer attention!  I'm still sticking with my original card because it is black, white and blue...kind of. lol  I'm using all blues, just starting with a light blue and gradually going to a darker blue. :)


Don't forget to check out what the other designers made HERE using this sketch .


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC - Bitty Butterfly Birthday

I must say I really like the new In Colors! :)  I was planning on using them for this week's Red Hot Stampers' sketch challenge card, but then we had a little bit added on to the challenge toward the end of the week...we needed to make our cards into a Father's Day card too.  Well, today's card is the idea I had going in my head (I even the the set, punches and colors sitting out early in the week!).  I really didn't think butterflies were a very wise choice for a Father's day card, so I made this card for my friend's birthday instead. :)

Pretty Papillon Potpourri

These cute little 3x3 cards and small box were another thing I made to feature paper-piercing using the Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack.  I guess you really can't see the paper-piercing unless you click on the pic so it comes up bigger, but it outlines the butterflies.  I was also looking through the "Less is More" challenge and these fit the category this week...keep it clean and simple, and frame it!  The little "frames" are easy to make using two square punches.




I had to add more than one pic to get a few different views of the cards. :)

Happy Birthday to my Niece!

Today I want to show you a cute little card and purse I gave my niece for her b-day.  It's been a tradition with both of my nieces for a few years now to make them purses for their birthdays.  I also tucked a $1 bill (yup, still cheap) and a pack of gum in it with the card.  We gave it to her at church yesterday and she came and told me after church that she got it.  Just thought it was so cute when she came up to me with a big smile and told me. :)

Beautiful Butterflies

Ok, so I get a butterfly stamp set and I'm all about butterflies! lol  I wanted to create something different, yet simple for my August stamp a stack and this is one of the cards I came up with.  You can barely tell from the picture, but I used the Flower Garden embossing folder and did paper piercing on all of my ovals.

Papillon Potpourri

Well, I woke up this morning only to realize I forgot to schedule my post today, and on top of that my internet was down. lol That's just the way it goes sometimes.  Well all is good now, so on to showing you my cards.  I like to tuck 3x3 cards as thank yous in my orders, and they're so fun and easy to make too.  I bought the set Papillon Potpourri not too long ago and decided to play with it a little bit.  So easy to make these butterflies!  Just stamp, punch and sponge. :)
