I saw this card by mum_of_2_2 on SCS and had to CASE it!  I love the colors and how she spolighted that sweet dancing bear from Under the Big Top stamp set.  The sentiment is from a retired set.  A Texturz plate was used to emboss the Perfect Plum card stock.  Elegant Eggplant, Blushing Bride, and Whisper White card stock were also used.  The dancing bear was colored with Watercolor Wonder crayons on watercolor paper.  Can you see the Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the folds of her tutu?

Working on Christmas cards today between loads of laundry.  This is the first time I've ever made a spinner card and it was fun!  The design was CASEd from Michelle Rey on SCS.  Stamp set is Snow Much Fun, card stock is Island Indigo, Pool Party, and Whisper White.  Images were colored with Stampin Write markers.  I LOVE Dazzling Diamonds glitter but waited until after scanning the card to add it along the snow bank.  We will make this one in stamp club next month!

This scrapbook page is about my role models. Two women I admire and want to be like when I get older. The journaling was computer generated on a piece of card stock and punched with the spiral border punch. The patterned paper is from a pad I've had for a while. The flower was cut with a flower layers Sizzix die, crumpled and then the edges were sponged with ink. Rose Pink glitter was glued to the large brad in the center.

Another Mother's Day card CASEd from Stampin_Sheri36 on SCS. Card stock is Pink Pirouette and Whisper White, Pink Pirouette and Pear Pizzazz Classic ink, Build a Blossom stamp set and coordinating punch, the Scalloped Trim border punch, an embossing folder, an Antique brad, and Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

Tired of winter? Think spring! Card base is Not Quite Navy, the bird house was cut from a wood sheet and sponged with Soft Suede. The roof is the inside of a soda can colored with alcohol ink and punched using the scallop border punch. The door is a Basic Black circle layered on a Garden Green scalloped circle. The bird was punched from retired Bella Bleu DSP. The paper flowers have glitter centers on Garden Green leaves cut from the Little Leaves Sizzlit in the Big Shot.

Have you tried one of the Letterpress plates yet? It debosses instead of embossing like the folders when used with the Big Shot. On the card below the Lots of Love letterpress plate was used to create the background on ivory paper with Regal Rose ink. Victoria Crochet Trim was wrapped around it and tied in a knot. The little girl image is from the Greeting Card Kids set, stamped in StazOn on watercolor paper and colored with Watercolor Wonder Crayons. After coloring I covered the heart she is holding with Zig Two Way glue and red glitter. The image was mounted on Blushing Bride cardstock and adhered to the card front with Stampin Dimensionals. The card base is Soft Suede cardstock.

I like how this card turned out. (Although the scan is a little crooked, the card isn't.) I stamped the snowman from Jolly Old St Nick on Whisper White and colored him with Stampin Write markers and stamped the sentiment in Marina Mist with a stamp from a retired hostess set called So Many Sayings. Then I embossed it in the Northern Flurry embossing folder, spritzed a little Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz on it, added Dazzling Diamonds glitter where the stamped imagine indicated snow and adhered it to a Marina Mist card base.

I love the Greeting Card Kids stamp set! It reminds me of images from my childhood. This card is copied from the one in the SU Idea Book and Catalog. The card base is one of the In Colors, Blushing Bride, and snowflakes from the Serene Snowflakes set was stamped in Champagne VersaMark Dazzle watermark ink to create a subtle background. The music background stamp from my stash is stamped in Basic Black on Very Vanilla card stock. The sentiment from A Cardinal Christmas is stamped in Crumb Cake on Very Vanilla card stock but before I stamped the sentiment, I lightly sprayed the card stock with Gold Glow Smooch Spritz. It is punched with the Modern Label punch. The little girl is stamped in Black StazOn on water color paper and colored with Watercolor Wonder Crayons. Moonlight Smooch Pearlized Accent Ink was used to color the trim on her coat and hat and Taffy Smooch Pearlized Accent Ink was used to color the tree ornaments. Snowflakes were also stamped around her in the Champagne VersaMark ink. Other accessories used were Very Vanilla satin ribbon, Silver Glass Glitter, and Victoria Crochet Trim.

Another birthday card CASEd from one by Lorri Heiling that I found on SCS. The only difference between her card and the one below is that I used Crumb Cake ink and card stock for the card base and she used black. The cupcakes were stamped with the Cupcake wheel and colored with watercolor pencils and a blender pen. I hope you can see the Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the frosting. The cardstock colors used for the stripes are Pretty in Pink, Barely Banana (retired), Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue, and Pale Plum (retired).

Another of my favorite stamp sets is Loads of Love. Very versatile for both men or women and occasions. This simple Valentine was colored with Watercolor pencils and spruced up by generously sprinkling some of the hearts with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

As promised, here's a card I made for my mother-in-law's birthday using the new Vintage Vogue set from the new Occasions mini catalog. The images are stamped in Crushed Curry, Pacific Point, and Wild Wasabi Classic ink on Whisper White card stock. I sponged the edges with Crushed Curry and layered it on a piece of Baja Breeze card stock stamped with an old script background. Her favorite color is green so the card base is a piece of textured Wild Wasabi card stock. The flower centers are Dazzling Diamonds (yellow flowers) and Turquoise Fine Cosmo Stampin' Glitter (blue flower) held in place with Zig Two Way glue. There are a few surprises in the new Occasions mini catalog. (If you haven't seen it yet, check it out on my SU web site or let me know and I'll send you one.) New style punches that are so easy to store and clear mount stamps! That's right! The same crisp, detailed images in rubber but with a choice between mounting them on traditional wood blocks or using clear acrylic blocks to stamp! There's lots of gorgeous new paper, ribbon, and other accessories that will make it easy to put together a $50 order to receive your free SAB item!
