Rings of Love | Sale-a-bration Blog Hop | Birthday Card

Happy Friday! We're mid-way thru July and that means it blog hop time! I'm excited to see what everyone created for our Sale-a-bration theme! And I'm happy to share my card with you!

Have you seen the Rings of Love paper in the Sale-a-bration brochure from Stampin' Up? It's so beautiful! I'm featuring two different patterns from the paper on my card. Aren't the birds gorgeous!!

I have to admit - I'm lovin' this colour combo! How about you?

There's a lot going on in this pic! I used the Layering Circles dies for the 'bird paper', and the Night of Navy scalloped layer. Then you have double banners, both cut in Soft Sea Foam using the Stylish Shapes dies. And lastly, a Soft Suede layer embossed using the 'splatter' folder from Stripes & Splatters. You can see how I cut the pieces in my Video Tutorial further down in this post.

Sometimes those last minute details are the best! Using my Stylish Shapes dies, I cut the birds from the Rings of Love paper - crazy cute!

The inside greeting as well as the happy birthday greeting are both from Happiness Abounds and inked using Night of Navy.

Penguin Playmates To the Coolest Friend Ever & Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends! It's time for our Stamping Symphony Blog Hop and this month we're featuring Sale-a-bration freebies! I'm always excited to see what each hopper has created!

Here's my card!

I fell head over heels in love with the Penguin Playmates designer series paper! It super duper cute and free during Sale-a-bration!

The polar bear and penguin were an easy fussy cut - another reason to love this paper! Both sides of the paper in the pack are pretty! I love stripes so the Misty Moonlight & White paper resonated with me!

I did a little heat embossing for the sentiment, which is from Penguin Place

PENGUIN PLAYMATES DSP #158420

With this paper you can create wintery and Christmas cards with the 'penguin' side of the paper, and with the other side - the sky is the limit!

I started with a base of Misty Moonlight, then added a Basic White layer. That layer was cut using the largest Layering Circles die, then embossed with the Stitched Greenery die.

For the tree, I used Christmas Trees dies, cutting in Silver Foil, and Basic White. They looked a little plain so once I adhered those pieces together, I ran the tree through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine using the Tasteful Textile folder. I l-o-v-e that folder!! I added a few In Colour Jewels for decoration.

I'm delighted with this card!! What do you think? Cute? Feel free to leave a comment! And please be sure to keep hopping!

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Friendship

Hey friends, I've created a pretty card for you using the Beautiful Friendship stamp set from Stampin' Up! It's retiring soon, along with a few of the other products in this card.

A reminder that measurements are given during the video (below). The colours used in the video differ a bit from what I used on this card. That's because some of the retiring inks are already sold out. But we're cardmakers, right! We simply use our other Stampin' Up! inks!
