Four Cakes

Another of my favorite sets that's retiring is "Amazing Birthday".  The four cakes were stamped in Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay, and Night of Navy and punched out with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch.  The words are from "Age Awareness" which is also retiring.  I stamped the Melon Mambo splatters around the words with "Gorgeous Grunge".  The background paper is from the Color Collections DSP Stack. 

Thank You

First, I stamped the "Watercolor Thank You" in Versamark and then I heat embossed it using White Embossing Powder.  I used the Aqua Painters, Watercolor Paper, and Pacific Point, Cucumber Crush, and Melon Mambo Ink over the top of the words.  I mounted it on Cucumber Crush card stock and then again on Whisper White.  Last, I made a little heart from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack from another piece of Watercolor Paper that I had brushed in Melon Mambo. 

Brushstrokes

I stamped the background of this card with "Brushstrokes" in Daffodil Delight (top) and Melon Mambo (bottom) and mounted it on some Everyday Chic DSP.  The words from "Sassy Salutations" which is retiring.  I punched out the butterflies using the Butterflies Thinlits and added some Candy Dots.

Stylish Stripes

This embossing folder, Stylish Stripes, is about to retire.  I made the background with Pool Party card stock layered on So Saffron.  The pink striped strip is from the Birthday Bouquet DSP collection.  I added some flowers I cut from the Botanical Builder Framelits.  The words are from "Sheltering Tree" and were cut with the Banner Punch.   Last, I added some Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

What's in the Window?

Here's a cute little card I made using the Hearth and Home Thinlits.  I punched out the window in Whisper White and the flower box with Corrugated Paper.  I made the card base with So Saffron card stock and the Brick Wall Embossing Folder.  I cut a Tea Lace Doily apart to make the curtains in the window and put a piece of Basic Black card stock behind them.  The flowers were made with the Itty Bitty Accents Punch (Real Red) and the leaves with the Bird Builder Punch (Garden Green).  Last, I added some Real Red Candy Dots.

Gold!

I made this card using a Gold Foil Sheet and the Softly Falling Embossing Folder.  I made the flowers with the Fancy Foil Designer Vellum and the Pansy Punch.  Then, I layered it on a strip of  some Corrugated Paper and cut the letters out of Basic Black card stock with the Little Letters Thinlits.  Last, I added some Gold Sequin Trim. 

All About Everything

These are just a couple of stamps from the extra "All About Everything" set that was in April's Paper Pumpkin kit.  I stamped the flower in Daffodil Delight and the background in Pool Party.  I made the flowerpot using Crumb Cake and a striped embossing folder with part of a doily.  I mounted it on Calypso Coral and added a matching button tied with Linen Thread.
