Daisy Quartet

Today’s cards were half of the featured Make N Takes at my Spring Bingo event. Each Bingo participant received a goody bag with four variously colored cardstock bases, six 6x6 pieces of Delightful Daisy DSP, ten gold faceted gems, two yards of Old Olive Sheer Ribbon, and two yards of Daffodil Delight Double Stitched Ribbon. From those supplies, the ladies made two cards at the Bingo event leaving plenty of supplies to take home and use later. For inspiration, I made four different cards using the same supplies.

Rainbow Fold

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a gatefold card. I always forget how much I love gatefold cards. The trick is to find the perfect shape/image to be the focal point. I immediately knew that a rainbow would be the perfect piece to tie this card together. I cut out my rainbow using all retiring colors (except for the So Saffron) and then pondered how to attach it. The easiest way is to assemble the rainbow with a piece of scotch tape on the back. Easy peasy! From there, I cut some clouds to create some fun layers and a place to tuck my rainbow ends. The glitter and epoxy shapes were the final touch.

Sparkly Unicorn!

Today's card is such a fun sparkly card! We made this for February's stamp club and I think all the ladies enjoyed making the card. We colored the glimmer paper with Pool Party reinker to create our sky. From there, we die cut the clouds adding a bit of Pool Party to the edges. The unicorns were colored with a mix of old Stampin' Up! Blendibilities and the new Stampin' Up! Blends (we made the card before the rest of my Blends arrived). Love this super sparkly card!

Unicorn in the Clouds

Today's card was inspired by one of my stamp club ladies. She wanted something sparkly, so I made her a sparkly unicorn card! I colored the piece of iridescent glimmer paper with the use of Pool Party reinker. This takes awhile to dray, but basically you can make this piece of glimmer paper any color you want! From there, we stamped, colored, and cut a fun unicorn and put her frolicking in the clouds. I finished the card with a great sentiment and some rhinestones.
