Brightly embossed Season's Greetings

Gold and silver embossing on these stars from the Bright and Beautiful stamp set make a lovely card in non-traditional colors.  The smaller background embossed stars are from the White Christmas stamp set.  The stars are cut using the coordinating star framelits.  The greeting is also from Bright and Beautiful and was cut out use the Apothocary Accents framelits. The card base is in lost lagoon.  A very popular color for this upcoming holiday season.

Sweet baby Abby screen card

This is my take on the screen card.  I did use a retired stamp set for the background stamping and the scalloped edge punch is also retired.  The remaining products used are all current.  The base card is coastal cabana.  The background is stamped on very vanilla with blushing bride as the layered piece.  I cut  out the letters with the new little letters Thinlits dies.  It is recommended you use waxed paper the first few times so the cardstock will release more easily.   I also used the Apothocary Accents framelits to make the sweet baby label.  The onsie and baby buggy were stamped using the Something For Baby stamp set and matching Baby's First framelits.  The adorable little bunny, baby shoes and Sweet Baby sentiment are from the Baby We've Grown stamp set.  The background is stamped using the retired stamp set itty bitty bits.  I love how this turned out.  I hope it inspires you to make one of your own.

Perfect ice cream sandwich gift card box

I saw this post on the Stampin' Up! Blog and just couldn't wait to make them.  They are soooo cute.  I used the Perfect Pennants stamp set for the sentiment and cut it out using the Apothocary Accents framelits dies.  Cardstock used is chocolate chip, very vanilla and pink pirouette.  I stamp my three different sentiments in strawberry slush, coastal cabana and pistachio pudding.   The belly bands are wrapped in early espresso bakers twine.  I used my paper piercing tool to make the top "sandwich cookie" look authentic.  I love how these turned out.  They are so easy to make.
