Fancy Fold Birthday

Hello Hivers,

I was cruising along on Pinterest the other day and came across a card I just had to try for myself.  I used the Big on Birthdays and Colorful Seasons stamp sets.  The DSP is from the Eastern Palace Suite.  I added a kickstand to the back of my cards.  I find that it helps, a little, to keep the card standing up.

Instructions:

Base:  4.25" x 11" Score at 2.75" and 5.5"

Color Mats:  5.25" x 4" and 3.25" x 4"

Neutral Mats:  3.25" x 4.75" and 3" x 3.75"

DSP:   2.75" x 4.25" and 0.75" x 3.25"

Optional Kickstand:  2" x 2"  Score at 0.5"

Colors:  Lemon Lime Twist, Whisper White, Island Indigo, Pool Party, and Flirty Flamingo

Diamond Shaped Lidded Box

Hello Hivers,

You all know I love making 3D projects.  I saw this cute little box on Pinterest.  The measurements were in cm so I had to do some recalculations to make it using inches.   My dear sister bought me a big box of Ferrero Rocher chocolate candies for Mother's Day.  I thanked her then laughed.  I knew that I would be making some type of box to put them in.  I used the Eastern Palace Specialty Designer Series Paper along with Fresh Fig, Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst, and Dapper Denim card stock.  A few small circle punches and the Eastern Beauty stamp set finished the boxes.  I decided to add a little bit of the Gold Metallic Thread to one of the boxes.  Each box holds just one of the Ferrero Rocher chocolates.

Catalog Case

Hello Hivers,

Don't you just love this card!?  I do.  That is why I just had to CASE it.   It can be found on page 85 of the New Annual Catalog.  I changed a few things about my card...the Pink Pirouette scalloped circle and the Soft Sky Swirly Scribbles pieces are two things I changed.  I also changed my card base to Pool Party and just layered the Whisper White piece, with a little sponging, on top.  I just guessed at the color they used.

Leave a comment and tell me what you think.  I would love to hear from you.

Banners for You: New 2017-19 In Colors

Hello Hivers,

Today I am sharing a set of cards I made using the New 2017-2019 In Colors.  I used this chart to help with my color selections.

There are a lot of summer birthdays in my family.  So I decided to use the Banners for You stamp set.  To my surprise, there is not a birthday sentiment in this set.  No worries!  Number of Years stamp set to the rescue.

 After I was finished making the first four cards, I realized that this would make a great anniversary card.  So that is what I did with the Lemon Lime Twist card.
