  • Colorful Day

    A bright card filled w/ colorful fuchsia daisies in a vellum vase. Perfect for a birthday, a special friend’s special day, Mother’s Day.

    We’re visiting PMG for Two & their Pinterest Board for the Inspiration Challenge this week. So many pretty things there..I chose THIS for the very bright, colorful flowers.

    I used 2 different sets of flowers for my fuchsia daisies. After coloring & die cutting them I added a sheet of very thin double sided adhesive to a small piece of lt blue vellum & die cut it. The centers of one set of flowers were too dark so I stamped & fussy cut the bigger centers from the other set & attached them on top. I arranged them then attached the vellum vase on top.

    I had a narrowish strip of designer paper that had the colors I wanted so I used it on the left side & attached it on top of a bigger fuchsia panel. The greeting was stamped onto a white circle & added above the flowers.

    Here are the Copics I used for the flowers:

  • Just Because

    a “just because” card for a birthday, get well or just to say hi. Features a blue butterfly & split panel circle w/ die cut holographic leaves & flowers.


    A big congrats to Kathy, the newest Featured Stamper (FS852). She has a big , beautiful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I liked the split panel circle in variegated shades & the butterfly w/ the die cut outline leaves, so I kept those. But I used different images, dies & colors & instead of gold I used holographic silver.

    After I die cut the circle out of white, I laid strips of turquoise, teal & blue onto a piece of some Glad stick & seal wrap then die cut the same circle out of it. After peeling off the wrap, I cut the strips narrower to allow some white from the base circle to show through. The butterfly was colored w/ 3 Copics (BG07, BG10 & Bg23) & die cut. The leaves & flowers were die cut out of a silver holographic card stock & arranged under & on top of the circle.

    I left most of the “insert” pieces inside the leaves just because. The circle was popped up w/ foam.

  • Just Because Flowers

    A slimline card w/ bright flowers on a quilted black background. Easy to make w/ lots of impact.

    A big congrats to Barbara, the newest Featured Stamper (FS848)! She has a fantastic gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the bright flowers on black & the slimline layout, but I used different images, dies & embossed a greeting instead of a die cut one.

    My slimline card started w/ the black background. I die cut it using a quilted pattern piercing die then added it to a white background w/ a diamond patterned edge. The flowers are 2 part images: the outline & the solid insides. I used a combo of inks to add the colors inside the flowers. The small greeting was stamped in white on a little strip & heat embossed.


    A few of the flowers were popped up for added dimension & I cut apart some of the flowers in order to move them closer together. Black stickies was added to the flower centers.
