Honeycomb Happiness

What is your favorite ice cream cone?  Mint? Watermelon? or Honey?   Actually, the scoop colors are Mint Macaron, Watermelon, Wonder and Hello Honey.  The ice cream cone stamp is from the SAB set Honeycomb Happiness which is FREE if you spend $50 in Stampin' Up! products.  I stamped the ice cream cones on Whisper White cardstock with Delightful Dijon ink.  Then I took each individual cardstock and stamped them with their coordinating ink pad.  I cut out each scoop of ice cream with Paper Snips and used Snail Adhesive to adhere to each cone.  Then I inserted it into the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder and ran it through the Big Shot.   For the middle cone, I added Gold Wink of Stella and popped it up with a Dimensional.  I stamped "You're So Sweet" with Watercolor Wonder and punched it out with the Large Oval Punch.  I took Watermelon Water and punched it with the Scallop Oval Punch.  I then popped it up with Dimensionals.  The base of my card is Mint Macaron and the second layer is Watermelon Wonder.

Flower Shop and Perfect Pennants

 

The base of this card is Whisper White.  I added a layer of Pistachio Pudding, but ran it through the Big Shot with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder.  Then I used the Ovals Collection to make an oval in the center and attached to the base of my card.  I stamped "Life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful" inside the oval.  I stamped three Flower Shop flowers with Memento Ink Pad and colored them in with the medium and dark Coastal Cabana Blendabilities and attached them with Dimensionals.  I then added the Coastal Cabana Thick Baker's Twine with a Glue Dot.

You're Lovely - Live Happy

 

This is a card idea that I cased from Angie Leach which she cased from a Leadership card.

This is another card made with the You've Lovely stamp set.  This was not my first choice of stamp sets that I wanted to earn free, but now it is my favorite as well as the Decorative Dots Texture Impressions Folder.  Both are available for FREE in the Sale-a-Bration brochure.  You spend $50 each to earn each item. The technique is from a favorite trend right now called ombre which you will see in cards as well as fashion.  The base of my card is Raspberry Ripple cardstock.  Then a layer of Whisper White cardstock.  The panels are Raspberry Ripple, Strawberry Slush, Crisp Cantaloupe and Primrose Petals.  I colored the flowers with Strawberry Slush ink and stems and leaves with Pistachio Pudding ink and Blender Pens.  The ribbon is the Primrose Petals Stitched Satin Ribbon.  I also used Rhinestone Jewels for the centers of the flowers, but I also added a butterfly from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits

 

The card below is the same style, but using colors of Island Indigo, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pistachio Pudding.  The ribbon is 1/8" Bermuda Bay Taffeta Ribbon.

 

 

 

See Ya Later Alligator

This idea was cased by Brenda Quintana's tutorial.  It was such a fun card to make and her instructions were easy to follow.  I made mine into a full card with the mouth of the alligator inside the card.  The colors I used are Always Artichoke, Summer Starfruit, and Pistachio Pudding.  The stamp set is called  See Ya Later which is a free Sale-a-Bration set if you spend $50.  Another Sale-a-Bration item used is the Decorative Dots Embossing folder.

See Ya Later!

This idea was cased from Michelle Reynolds, only I don't have the Starburst Framelit Dies yet that she had. I used the Circle Collection Framelits instead.  I just love theFold Decorative Dots Embossing Folder that can be earned FREE by purchasing $50 in net sales from Stampin' Up!  It was one of my first purchases.  I also used the small heart punch on Real Red card stock.  The card is Garden Green with a layer of Whisper White and embossed Pear Pizzazz and Garden Green.

Blessed Easter - Crayon Resist

This is another Blessed Easter card I made using the white crayon resist technique again. This time I used the Windows Frame Collection Framelit #129021.  I used the same colors Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive.  I used the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder ##133520 from the Sale-a-Bration catalog that can be earned FREE with the purchase of $50 in net sales.

Black and White Banner Blast

This is another Banner Blast (SAB) card I made using Basic Black and Whisper White cardstock.
I used Decorative Dots Embossing Folder on the Whisper White cardstock and ran through the Big Shot.  I stamped the banners on Whisper White using Versamark ink pad and used Basic Black Embossing Powder.  Then used the Banner Punch to punch them out.  I put Dimensionals behind them to attach to the front of my card.  The middle banner was made by punching with the Banner Punch on Basic Black card stock and then trimming around the edges and punching out a Real Red heart using the Small Heart punch.  I tied the 1/8" Basic Black Taffeta Ribbon in a bow and attached above the heart banner.

Happy Birthday Best of Sale-a-Bration

Since I am snowed in today, I decided it was time to stamp my first card made for 2014.  The card stock colors are Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White.  The flower stamp is from Best of Sale-a-Bration #134393 that came out in December, 2013.  The colors I used for the flower are Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive markers.  The The original stamp was from the Sale-a-Bration set called Happy Harmony in 2007.  The "happy birthday" stamp is from Teeny Tiny Wishes #128478 (w) or #127802 (c) which is the catalog on page 44.  The Embossing Folder is from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog called Decorative Dots #133520 which is free if you spend $50 in Stampin' Up! merchandise.  The Designer Series Paper is from the Season of Style which was in the Holiday Catalog.  The punches I used were Word Window #119957 and Modern Label #119849 on pages 180 and 181 of the catalog.  The circles are from the Circles Collection #130911 on page 186 of the catalog.
