Valentine for my Daughter

I have had this background stamp FOREVER! I never really knew what to do with it. But when I was sitting down to make my daughter's Valentine card it called to me. I stamped it once, and then pick and chose which candy sayings I wanted stamped them out cut out, and colored them then added glitter! Then used dimensionals to pop out some of the sayings. The great thing about that is that the yellow heart that was where I wanted some dimension, said "Hot Stuff" not good for my Daughter, so I stamped one that said "Hug me" instead! All of the ribbon/cardstock used was stuff i had on hand. I did the border using my Scallop border punch. I think it turned out cute, and better yet...she loved it!!!

Green With Envy - Addicted to Cardmaking

I made this card for the theme Green with Envy for my Addicted to Cardmaking swap on my favorite MB. I have to say though that I TOTALLY CASEd this card from my fabulous Upline Claire Lawrence. I just couldn't come up with my own design, and saw the awesome card she made and had to make one myself!!!
I used the new clear mount Vintage Vogue from Stampin' Up (which by the way Claire ENABLED me into getting!). And the background (on the light green) is the rolling stamp So Swirly (retired). I used the Wide Oval Punch and the Coluzzle cutting system. The border was done with Stampin' Up's new Scallop border. The ribbon, and cardstock are all using stuff I had on hand. The inks I used were Perfect Plum, Pale Plum, Garden Green and Certain Celery (I think).
