Paper Butterfly Accents from StampinUP used on 3 cards here......


 This first card creation is a fun fold using the Wildly Flowering Designer Paper from the Annual Catalog.  Besides this lovely paper, I used the following StampinUP products:
 
--Paper Butterfly Accents (pg. 96- AC)
--Wildflower Designs Stamp Set
--Wildflower Designs Dies
--Moody Mauve In Color Gems

 

I decorated the inside of this card with designer paper too and a stamped image die cut.

 

One layer of Lemon Lolly paper was embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Folder.  The Nested Essentials Dies were used to cut out the Peach Pie sentiment piece.  Those 3 Peach Pie strips were cut from the Lily Pond Lane 6 x 6 paper.

 

This is the same card layout as the above creation.  Once again, I used the Paper Butterfly Accents from the Annual Catalog.  The Timber 3D Embossing Folder and the Stitched Shapes Dies are featured here.

Stray Ducklings Waddle-- Theme is a Technique (I used a baby wipe, ink refill & a block).......

 


 My  technique:  I put several ink refill drops (Garden Green) on a baby wipe and then pushed my block in the wipe that I had on a paper plate.  "A little dab will do ya" and that is how the green turned out when I pushed the block on the paper.  I then stamped the leaf image on top and finished my creation using the Spotlight On Nature stamp set.

Other StampinUP products used include:

--Blooming Pearls

--Black Bakers Twine

--Lovely Garden DSP (new online exclusive)

 

 


 This card was my inspiration, and made by friend & team member Karen F. from Peoria IL.  Karens block stamping turned out much better than mine did and hopefully you will get the idea. 

  

 

 

    I SHARE MY PASSION FOR STAMPS, INK & PAPER WITH A SPECIAL FLOCK OF LADIES CALLED THE "STAMPING STRAY DUCKLINGS".  WHENEVER WE'RE TOGETHER, FEATHERS FLY BECAUSE OF ALL THE FUN WE HAVE!!

Floral Delight Suite Collection used on 3 Cards here.....

On pages 33 thru 37 in the Spring Mini Catalog, you will find todays' featured products!  My color combo for all 3 of these creations consists of:  White, Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lolly and Old Olive.

 I used the following StampinUP products on card #1:

--Floral Delight Designer Paper

--Daffodil Delight Ribbon

--Delightful Wishes Stamp Set

--Delightful Wishes Dies

--Exposed Brick 3D Emboss Folder

--Something Fancy Dies

The Linked Together Dies were used on this card.  I colored some white bakers twine by using an Old Olive Stampin' Blend.  The lovely DSP comes from the same pack I listed above.

 


 This 3rd card is the same version as my first card above (just turned the DSP over to the other side).  Also, the gems are switched up a bit and I used circle dies for the sentiment.

2 Lovely Cards Featuring Scenic 6 x 6 Designer Paper

 

 Both these creations today were a class project some time ago.  This is a "side open" card with 2 cards in one actually.  After opening the gray, then you can open the 2nd card inside by flipping up the beautiful designer paper!  This would make a wonderful masculine birthday also.

 

I used the Thoughtful Journey paper on this card.  The Unbounded Love Dies and the Thoughtful Wishes Dies were both used as well.  Happy Birthday comes from the Unbounded Love stamp set.
