Twitterpated Blossom

Here's a card that I have unashamedly CASEd from  my SU mummy Julie's Blog

Although mine is not as fancy as hers, I still love it.

This Twitterpated DSP is so lush - I keep using it!!

Colour Combo for this card is Blushing Bride, Baja Breeze and Whisper White

I used the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder and made the Happy Birthday Banner

 using the Curly Cute stamp-set. I then punched two flowers with

the Blossom Punch - one in Blushing Bride and one with Twitterpated DSP.

I put a tiny Twitterpated matching Designer button in the centre of the flower,

then punched two leaves out with the Bird Builder punch.

The ribbon is3/8" Pleated Blushing Bride Satin Ribbon.

Thanks Julie!!

Creative Elements

Today I am making use of the Creative Elements stamp-set and an unusual colour combo of Basic Grey, Calypso Coral and Very Vanilla.
The grey cardstock was embossed using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.
A little bit of punched Lace Ribbon Border in Calypso Coral and a little bit of bling and voila.
I have cased this card from Papercrafts by Patti but the creator is Leena Girsa, whom I thank very much.

White on White

I have seen several cards made using white on white, so I thought that I would give it a go. I have used White embossing powder on a Versamarked image from the Charming stamp-set. This I have layered on White, on top of a white frame cut out after using the Textured Impressions Designer frames Embossing folder. I threaded the White ribbon over the frame sides and under the Charming image and stuck this on top of the joining line where the two different textured halves of the card meet. These were embossed using the Vintage Wallpaper and the Stripes embossing folders. Then the compulsory bling added - Basic pearls today!
You may have to zoom in to the picture to see the detail of the embossed flower.
I am quite happy with this card - so - who shall I send this one to?
If you would like to receive this card, simply leave me a comment and I will do a draw for the winner (names in hat!) and will post this out to you.

When is a cupcake not a cupcake?

When it's a handbag of course!!
Here's the fabulous handbag card that we made at our All Day Training Event in January with Julie.
Can you spot where the cupcake is?
I am sure that you don't need the recipe for this but just in case.....
Colour Combo Real Red, Basic Black and Whisper White, with just a touch of Red Glimmer Paper and a few Rhinestones. The Create a cupcake stampset and the Build a Cupcake, Extra Large Oval, 1/2" and 3/4" Circle and Decorative Label punches - and last but not least the Vintage Wallpaper Textured Expressions Embossing Folder.
Mmmmmm - good enough to eat (appropriately!).
