Pinterest Inspired

I saw a similar card on Pinterest, and thought I could make that.  I had butterfly punches, and the same Cuttlebug Embossing folder.  Here is my version, and I am not sure I like this one, and my need to re-make it. 

The card is 4 x 5.5.  I embossed the background with D'vine Swirl cuttlebug folder, then used a Martha Stewart punch all over the page butterfly punch.  These were then backed with another color paper.  The smaller butterflies were cut from the Paper Trimming Cricut Cartridge.    The background was lightly inked. 

3 Hydrangeas

I love Hydrangeas and when I saw this stamp I knew I had to have it.  These cards are 4 x 5.5. The stamp used was from Stampin' Up, and colored with Copic Markers in pinks, blues and purples. 

An Easter Card

My Easter card for 2013.  This card is 4.25 x 5.5. 

I used Lacy Labels for the background the yellow layer was cut at 3.6 x 4.85.  The Pink Layer was cut at  3.5 x 4.75, and embossed using the Victoria Emboss Cuttlebug folder.  The Easter Basket and eggs are from the Doodlecharms cartridge cut at 3 inches.  I also cut some additional eggs at 2.75.  The Easter Bunny is from Teresa Collins Bunnies and Chicks cut at 1.5 inches.  The grass is from Everyday Paper Dolls.

I heat embossed some of the eggs, and used Glitter Ritz micro-fine glitter on the rest. 

Sympathy Card

Unfortunately there is not a lot of time to make a sympathy card.  Here is a simple one. The stamps are from the Greenhouse Society.  The card is 4.25 x 5.5.

Triple Stamped Valentines Day Card

Here is a triple stamped Valentines Day card.  I still need to work a bit on stamping evenly!

This card is 4.25 x 5.5.  I used a combination of Memento and Ranger Distressed inks.  The sizes for the layers are:

• 2 x 3.25, mat size 2.25 x 3.5
• 3 x 4.25, mat size 3.25 x 4.5
• 4 x 5.25, mat size 4.25 x 5.5

Lightly tack the three main layers together, then add the stamps.  When done, simply separate the layers, and add the mats.

Copics and Embossing

Here is another card where the flower and the leaves were embossed on velum and cut out.  For this card, I used my Copic markers and colored the flowers on the back side.  They were then attached to the card stock, a ribbon and sentiment added.

An Embossed Card

For this card (4 x 5.5), I embossed the flowers on velum, cut around them, then attached the flowers to the card stock, and added a ribbon.  I haven't decided the occasion for it yet, so there is still no sentiment.
