Polka Dots and Stripes

Today’s card is a CASE from Deb Naylor @ The Flying Stamper. I loved the simplicity of the design added with the color blocking and embossed texture. I just had to make my own. I changed the card only to fit my own supplies, but I had to keep the main elements the same.

A Juggling Panda for You!

As soon as I saw the Sale-a-Bration brochure, I had to have the Party Pandas stamp set! It's just so incredibly cute. I decided to play with circles and stripes for the design of the card. I embossed a piece of Whisper White paper with the Polka Dot embossing folder and repeated those dots in the DSP and the die cut shapes. For contrast I chose of piece of striped DSP as a background layer. After stamping and coloring my panda, I added some fun bright sequins. I love how the panda is juggling the sequins.

Coffee Cups for You

Today's card is being featured at my birthday cards class. I loved the idea of repeating shapes and so I modified the idea for a birthday card. I die cut a ton of small coffee cups from the awesomely bright Picture Perfect Party DSP stack and created my focal grid. From there it was just a matter of adding some texture via embossing folder and a nice birthday sentiment.

Balloons Galore!

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using our favorite Occasions Catalog DSP item. I love the bright colors and images in the Picture Perfect Party DSP stack! For today's card, I decided to keep it simple to highlight this fun piece of DSP! I added a simple strip of stamped Whisper White with a coordinating layer. As a final touch, I added some of the new awesome adhesive backed Tutti-Frutti Sequins.

Who has completely fan-girled over the new Occasions Catalog? I totally have! The Picture Perfect Suite immediately caught my eye! Today's card is just full of fun and color! In addition to the stamp set and paper from the Picture Perfect Suite, I added some Lemon Lime Twist Glimmer Paper and the Celebrate You Thinlits (SAB catalog). I can't wait to make more cards using this great paper stack.
