Jewelry Tag

What fun I'm having with this little punch called "Jewelry Tag".  Small words from any set will fit and I used "hello" from "You're My Type" from the Occasions Mini.  I stamped images from "Fresh Vintage" (SAB) with Poppy Parade, Island Indigo, and Lucky Limeade on First Edition Specialty DSP.  Then, I stamped the flower on Lucky Limeade card stock and punched out it with the Curly Label Punch.  I used the In Color Designer Printed Brads and added a Poppy Parade 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon.  Today is the last day to take advantage of the great Sale-A-Bration Promotion!

Postage Stamps

I stamped this with the "Fresh Vintage" set (SAB) in Pretty in Pink, Daffodil Delight, and Melon Mambo.  Then, I ran some Whisper White card stock through the Big Shot using the Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder.  I punched them all out using the Postage Stamp punch and mounted the six squares on a piece of Whisper White card stock popped up with Dimensionals.  I sewed a piece of DSP from the Attic Boutique Collection (Occasions Mini) on the card which was made with the Framed Tulips Embossing Folder.  Last, I added a Melon Mambo 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon.

Sprinkled Expressions

I tried a new color combination:  So Saffron, Peach Parfait, and Basic Gray.  I stamped the "Celebrate" from "Sprinkled Expressions" (free from SAB) in Basic Gray and the image from "Triple Treat Flower" (also from SAB) in Basic Gray and So Saffron.  Then, I punched it out with the 5-Petal Flower and the Fancy Flower Punches and popped it up with Dimensionals.  I added a Flower Brad and a Peach Parfait 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon.  The background paper is from the Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack (top) and the Flirtatious Specialty (bottom).

Pink or Green?

I can't decide which one I like better, the Rose Red one or the Lucky Limeade one.  I made both of these cards using "Sprinkled Expressions" from SAB--this great promotion ends this week (click on the side bar catalog for the link).  I mounted it on Early Espresso and popped it up with Dimensionals.  I wrapped Baker's Twine around it and used Early Espresso on the top card and Lucky Limeade on the bottom one. 

Pretty Pastels

I love pastels, especially in the spring!  I made this card with the "Mixed Bunch" set from the Occasions Mini.  I stamped the flowers in Wisteria Wonder, Regal Rose, and Daffodil Delight on a Pear Pizzazz card, then punched two of them with the new Blossom Punch and popped them up with Dimensionals.  The words are from the set "Delightful Dozen".  The background strip is from the Patterns Designer Series Paper Stack and I ran the bottom of the card through my Big Shot using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  The Wisteria Wonder trim was made using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch.  Last, I added some 1/4" Daffodil Delight Grosgrain Ribbon.

Change of Pace

It seems like I've posted mostly cards lately, so here's what else I've been up to.  I made this table runner with a charm pack (5" x 5" pre-cut squares) cut in half.  I stitched them together in strips and then added coordinating fabric in the middle.  The fabric is from Moda's "Hometown" collection and if I had to pick SU colors that matched, they would be:  So Saffron, Pool Party, Cherry Cobbler, Basic Gray, and Very Vanilla.  The table runner is so long, this picture only shows about half of it. 

Kindness Matters

I don't know why I never bought this set, "Kindness Matters", until now--I actually got it for FREE from SAB.  I think it's really cute and I love how it fits inside the Extra Large Oval Punch as well.  I made the Soft Suede overlay with the Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and then tied Pool Party Baker's Twine around this piece.  I made the Peach Parfait trim with the Eyelet Border Punch and scrunched it up to make it look like lace.  The Pool Party card base measures 3" x 6" and fits in the Small Open-End Envelope.
