Brayered sky and Ribbon Ruffles...

Today I am posting 2 cards.  These are definitely my favorite cards that I have made lately and I am so happy with how they turned out!

The first is a Halloween card CASE'd from Michelle Zindorf, a talented card maker who uses a brayer on all of her cards.  This card is a 3 1/4" x 6 1/2" format that I love using!  I don't have the brayer technique quite down pat but it turned out much better than I thought.  Tip: Don't have a brayer, use sponges to get the same background effect.

Supplies

Stamps: Haunted jumbo wheel, Teeny Tiny Wishes

Cardstock: Elegant Eggplant, Pumkin Pie

Ink: Crushed Curry, Pumkin Pie, Elegant Eggplant, Basic Black

Accessories: Modern Punch, Word Window Punch, Brayer, Stamping sponges, ticket punch, White gel pen, 1 3/4" Circle Punch, Post it notes (for masking)

I have an idea for a Halloween scrapbook page that I can't wait to use this wheel on.  Stay tuned!

This second card is one that I came upon Heather Van Duker's blog.  I saved the link so that I could try to replicate it at another time.  It uses scrunched up taffeta ribbon on a cupcake, which gives it the effect of fluffy icing!  Have a look!

What do you think!? Is this not the cutest card ever!!?!?  I made it for one of my son's friends.  Owen is attending her birthday party on Sunday.  I hope Gabrielle likes it :)

Supplies

Stamps: Voeux Mignons

Cardstock: Rose Red, Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette (retired)

Paper: Rose Red DSP

Ink: Chocolate Chip marker

Accessories: Circle scissors plus, Scallop Edge Punch, Rose Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Glue Dots, Sticky Strip, half back pearl (for the Pretties Kit), 2 way Glue Pen and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Paper Trimmer, Big Shot Cutting Machine, Top Note Die, Lots of Heart Punch, Kraft taffeta ribbon

Here is a closer look at the cupcake!

For the saying, I used the Voeux Mignons set but they only had a "Bon anniversaire" stamp and for a child I thought "Bonne Fete" was more appropriate so I took out my Chocolate Chip stampin' write marker and colored the "Bonne Fete" from the "Bonne Fete des Meres" stamp! Gotta love thoses markers!!!

Well gotta get  back to making some Christmas cards! Have a great weekend everyone :)

Sesame Street Punch Art Card

At the request of a few customers and friends, I am posting this cute card that I made for a friend's daughter's 1st birthday this summer. 

No, I did not come up with this clever idea!  These little Sesame Street punch characters are all over the net and so I decided to take a go at it.  This was really easy since I owned all the punches needed.  I own ALOT of punches!!!

I started with a Real Red cardstock for the base and added a square of Basic Black to make the characters pop.  The colors used are Real Red, Old Olive, Brilliant Blue and Crushed Curry. 

The "Happy Birthday" greeting is from one of my favorite sets Happy Everything.  All supplies used are from Stampin' Up!

Happy stamping,

Give Thanks Card

Happy Thanksgiving everyone (to my Canadian friends and family that is!!)

Here is a card I made with my Stamp Clubs this month.  I used the "herringbone" technique.  You can find some tutorials on the internet for this technique.  It's actually quite simple and great to use up all those little bits and pieces of designer paper or cardstock.  All you need is some scrap paper and some double sided tape (such as carpet tape).  Clear tape is best.

I just love the colors used.  I chose them based on the Autumn Traditions Designer Paper; Always Artichoke, More Mustard, Soft Suede and Elegant Eggplant.

The pumpkins were made using the wide oval punch and 1 inch circle punch.  I added a little piece of folded ribbon to make the stem, did some sponging on the edges and voila!  Too cute!

Live in the Ottawa area? Want to learn new techniques to make beautiful cards like this? Sign up for one of my Stamp clubs starting in January, or better yet, get 5 or 6 of your friends together to make up your own. Every month, a different member gets the hostess benefits (one stamp set and at least $20 of FREE products).

Contact me today for more details!

Hope everyone has had a great weekend with friends and family!
