It's a Stylized Birthday!

 

Well happy Saturday! Today we celebrate my mother in laws birthday. It was actually Monday, but today, we are all off from work and able to all get together to celebrate with her. She's a great lady and loved by all that's for sure. I'm so blessed that I don't have one of "those" mother in laws. You know, the ones that horror stories are made from. She's just the sweetest lady. And you would never guess she's turned 80 years young!

So here is the card I made for her.

 

 



Supplies:
Paper: Night of Navy Cut 11" x 4 1/4"  and scored and folded at 5 1/2"; Petals and Paisley's DSP cut 5 1/4" x 4" (the Rich Razzleberry tone on tone); 2" x 4" (the paisley piece) and 2" x 5 1/4" (Night of Navy banner); Night of Navy - enough to cut the largest scalloped circle from the Layered Circle framelits; Very Vanilla - enough to stamp Happy Birthday and cut with the largest stitched circle from the Stitched Shapes framelits; Night of Navy cut 2 1/4" x 4 1/8"
Stamp set: Stylized Birthday
Ink: Night of Navy
Misc: Banner Triple Punch, Big Shot, Layered Circle Framelits, Stitched Shape Framelits

Directions:
Adhere the Rich Razzleberry DSP to the card base then layer the paisley piece to the Night of Navy panel and adhere to the bottom portion of the card using Snail adhesive. Next, banner one end of the Night of Navy DSP and adhere that to the center of the card with Snail adhesive. Then, using the largest scalloped circle in the Layering Circles collection, cut the Night of Navy. Stamp the Happy Birthday in Night of Navy ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock and cut it out using the largest circle framelit in the Stitched Shapes collection and layer with the scalloped circle you cut. Adhere that to the front of your card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I hope you enjoyed this card. I love to hear from you so please feel free to leave me your comments. Have a great day and happy stamping,

Out With The Old and In With The New

Wow, can you believe it, today is the final day to place orders from the 2015-2016 annual catalog and the Occasions catalogs! Tomorrow morning the new and oh so fantastic new 2016-2017 annual catalog goes live! Trust me when I tell you, I can barely contain my excitement! This catalog goes way beyond fantastic! However, if there is anything on the retirement list that you really want, today's your last chance. Lots has sold out, but there is still a lot of great things left so feel free to check it out before it's gone forever in less than 24 hours!

Ok, now for today's card. I can finally share it with you. I had to keep it under wraps until after I gave it to my dad for his birthday and I didn't want him to stop by here and see it before he received it, so now it's in his hot hands and now I can share it with all of you. This comes from my oh so favorite new set, Swirly Bird stamp set! I can not believe how versatile this stamp set is and of course I adore the coordinating Thinlits as well....waves are compliments of the Thinlits!

 

The sentiment comes from the stamp set Thoughtful Banners. I totally love this set as well because you create sooo many sentiments, its almost endless the combination of words you can put together to create just the right sentiment. The colors I used are Mint Macaron, Night of Navy and for the "sun" Delightful Dijon, the boat is Tip Top Taupe and the flag is Real Red. I hope you enjoy this card, I think dad did. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. I hope you all have a great day and happy stamping.

More Swirly Scribbles

Happy Saturday! Wow, is it me or did this week just zoom by? I didn't even get to collect my $200! I'm sure I passed "go" somewhere along the way. Anyway, today I will be manning a huge 3 family garage sale, actually, all weekend. I think my house lost several hundred pounds from this little clean out. Doesn't it feel great when you get organized? I'm making my way into the world of organization, it just happens to be a process. 

Ok, so, here is another card project using the Swirly Scribble Thinlits. LOVE this set. I have a few more ideas to share with you using this bundle, but here is today's:

 

 

Here I attached a flirty Flamingo piece 4 x 5.25" to a standard Whisper White card base. I then stamped a Whisper White piece 3.25"x 5" with the Hardwoods background stamp with Basic Gray archival ink and cut out 1 each of the Scribble Thinlits from Peek-a-boo Peach, Flirty Flamingo and Sweet Sugarplum. I adhered them using the Fine Tip glue and the Sentiment, which comes from the new Confetti Celebration stamp set, I stamped in Basic Gray onto a piece of Whisper White and bannered the end using the Triple Banner punch...another must have. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. I look forward to hearing from you! 

Have a great day and happy stamping,

Katrina

Have You Heard the News?

 

Have you heard the news? If you host a party in June and total sales before S&H and tax reach $350, you receive an additional $35 in hostess rewards! That is uh-maz-ing! Seriously, that's a new set of the brand new layering die sets! Or anything else you want to put that money toward! Really, don't miss out on this opportunity! Book a party with me in June and let's get you some great freebies! I am totally blown away that STampin' Up! is doing this for hosts! This is truly a knock out of the park on their part. They really want you to get some great product in your hands and so do I, so let me know when a good time is for you!

In the meantime, here is a sneak peak at one of my favorite sets coming June 1st. This is the Swirly Birds stamp set with the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits (it is a bundle) and the possibilities are endless with this set! 

 

I also used the new In-colors, Sweet Sugarplum and Flirty Flamingo along with Emerald Envy for the leaves. There are so many pieces to this set that the only thing that can limit you, is your imagination! So, heads up, put this one on top of your wish list and I'll be back Saturday with another example from this set! 

Happy Stamping,

Katrina
