Baby Pinwheels

Well, I was in a mood to create something cutesy! I am running low on baby cards in my Card Box, so it was time to come up with a few. 

I used the new Pinwheel Sizzlet to cut these out really quickly. The colors are Bashful Blue, Pretty in Pink, So Saffron and Old Olive. 
I find it easiest when using the Pinwheel Sizzlet to NOT use the little holes that are there. I just use Snail Adhesive to glue every second corner into the centre, overlapping them as I go. Then, make a hole using the Paper Piercer and Foam Pad, and put a brad through the centre.


Here are the other Stampin' Up products used:
Versamark ink
Dazzling Diamonds Glitter
Mini Silver Brads



Hope you like my Baby card today!
Happy Stamping!

A Round Array

Hello Stampers! This card was made using the new A Round Array Stamp set, and the 7/8" scallop circle punch. So cute!

The colors I used are Pool Party (one of my faves!), and Crumb Cake. The embossing on the bottom layer is the Vines Embossing Folder, and the pretty brad in the middle is the new Designer Build A Brad. 

Here's the inside of the card.

Thanks for stopping by!

Spring Inspired

Here is a pretty one-layer card set that we created at Stamp Club recently, and I wanted to share them with you.
The colors used are Pool Party and Rich Razzleberry, so pretty together. We used the Sale-A-Bration stamp set, and some cardstock as a mask for the sponging.


We made the holder using the Diagonal Scoring Plate and the Simply Scored Tool, Pool Party cardstock cut into 8 1/2 X 8 1/2, and the Sale-A-Bration Designer paper from this year. 


Here, we made a mask using a scrap piece of cardstock and the 2 1/2" circle punch, covered our Confetti White cardstock base with it, and stamped and sponged inside the circle. 

We did the same type of masking here, but used an "L" shaped piece of cardstock to protect the embossed edge.



These pretty little butterflies were inked and stamped using the Rock and Roll technique. I used the Tulip Frame embossing folder to emboss the envelopes before stamping them.


Hope you like these cards with a taste of Spring!
Happy Stamping!
