Pretty in Pink: Negative Flower Punch for Valentine's Day

 My sister created this design in a card for my daughter.  I have totally cased it!  Thanks, Connie.

I used the punch's negative on the front of the card and the actual flower punch on the inside of the card.  

I used Melon Mambo for the card base and ink.  The layers are in Regal Rose and Blushing Bride.  Punches are a 1" flower and Stampin' Up's word window.  Pearls in the center of the flower and ribbon around the front.

Love this card.

Thanks So Much

After my birthday, I used my entire stock of thank you notes, so I needed to replenish my thank you stock. I made eight cards, so I did not want to get too involved. I still have a LOT of real red card stock after the wedding, so that made my decision on the color.

The stamps are from Stampin' Up's Polka Dot Punches and Three Little Words. The punches are also Stampin' Up: Scallop, Scallop Oval, and Scallop Trim Edge. The bling is from my sister, Connie.

Birthday: Birdhouses, Hearts, and Buttons -- Oh, My!

My sister Connie gave me this card for my birthday. She glues fabric onto card stock, giving the card a rich, vibrant look. She used dimensionals for the fabric pieces; embellishments were buttons and twine. Beautiful card! Thanks, Connie.

I also showed the back of the card because it is so cute.

Birthday: Made by my Sister

My sister Connie again took tissue paper, wrinkled it up, smoothed it out, then glued it on the card stock. The tissue paper with such a beautiful pattern became the focus of the card. She used ribbon with a "Celebrate" slide and four corner brads. The card is beautifully simple.

Birthday: Made by my Sister

My sister Connie took tissue paper, wrinkled it up, smoothed it out, then glued it on the green card stock. (The tissue paper was recycled wrapping, which makes it even better.)

She also used twine in the sliders die, a punched flower with a button center, and rubber stamps.

Beautiful card!
