Happy Birthday with a cherry on top

I have just made a beautiful card for my daughters friends birthday...
Love the idea of cherries on top...
This stamp set is one of few hostess gifts from the Annual Catalogue. If you book a qualifying workshop this is one of a few sets you can order with your hostess dollars...

 
I have used bits of scrap papers in the background in matching red and yellow. I have also embossed the whisper white card with a non Stampin' Up folder, while I wait my order for the new Perfect Polka Dots folder...

The colours of ink on this card from the In colour range:

Primrose Petals, Raspberry Ripple and the interesting Summer starfruit.

and from the brights collection:

Daffodil Delight and Melon Mambo. I used a mix of the Classic Stampin' pads and the Stampin' Write Markers.

 
And I also used the Scented Stampin' Emboss Powder Cherry page 159 code 127035, $9.95
with the Versamark ink pad page 159, code 102283, $12.95

Card colour is whisper white page 156, code 106550, 40 sheets A4 $14.95

and would have used the Pefect polka Dots Folder page 189 code 117335, $13.95

and the glue dots give each layer a little lift page 177, code 103683, $10.95 for 300 dots.

along with the Stampin' Dimensionals page 177, code 104430, $6.95

and of course the Stamp Set A Cherry on Top, page 197 code 125971 with a qualifying workshop using hostess dollars $24.00

Card Making Day # 2

It was a lovely day, had by me and my girly friends...

 We made 3 beautiful cards and ate soup and talked about our businessess and other business stuff. As we crafties all know we don't make millions. We make smiles for others...

Here are the three cards we made today. Have fun looking.

I have blogged this card recently for Artful Stampers annual blog hop. I have used pearls instead of gems and love them.

I also love this santa card also using the Stampin' Up manhatten flower embossing folder, and the butterflies embosslits for the moustache...:)

This card is showing a new In Colour for this year, Primrose Petals, with the very versatile neutral range of colours sahara sand and chocloate chip...Any light neutral would work with a dark neutral here.

And that is it for today...I did have a little practice this morning before the girls turned up with the manhatten flower white on white card BUT in "real red" on red, and failed....I don't like it...needs something else, what do you think?

 

Cheers Tamsin.

Thank you for visiting and if you'd like to leave a comment I'd be very pleased to hear what you think of the new catalogue and products.

Here is my pick:
Hand cut the embossed Manhatten flower at the top and the bottom and adhere to card with dimensionals. Trimmed the corners of the card with round corner punch and SNAIL adhesive was used for the butterflies to the blank area. I also added 3 gems to the largest butterfly.

and to glitterize it with Rhinestone Basic Jewels page 175, code 119246 $8.95
and the finishing touch I used the 3/16" (5mm) corner punch page 183, code 119871, $11.95
AND of course the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine page 186, code 113439, $only 149.95...
