Cheerful Critter girl card-In-a-box

This is a card I made for one of my husband's co-workers. I made two of them for her to use.  The main focal point is from a recently retired stamp set called Cheerful Critters. I love this set.  It makes these cards so much fun.  Card stock is mint macaron with the DSP from Cherry on Top.  Both are new product from the 2016-2016 SU catalog.  The balloons on the card are from the May Paper Pumpkin kit.  I love the stamps we receive each month which are exclusive to the kit.  I've used this particular set on several different projects since I received it.  Other stamps used were from Flower Shop, Petite Petals, Pictagram Punches and A Round Array (also recently retired).  You can recreate this card with whatever sentiment stamps you have on hand.  I added a few  pearl basic jewels in the smaller flower centers and punched an artisan label in dazzling diamonds glimmer Paper.  I stamped an envelope to match.  The tiniest flower on the bunny is punched from the tree builder punch.  Other colors on this card are watermelon wonder, Bermuda bay, smokey slate,and soft sky.  I hope Marilyn loves them and the recipients do as well.  I know I do.

Petite Petals art thankful card

I used the work of art stamp set on the kraft notecards and envelopes by Stampin' Up! For the background on these thank you cards.  Ink colors are so saffron, calypso coral, pool part and pear pizzaz.  I used Everything Eleanor for the flourish and embellished with flowers from petite petals and flower shop along with the matching punches.  Gold dazzling details provide a little bling in the flower centers.  The sentiment is from a promotional set available only to hostesses or virtual hostesses with orders of $300 or more.  It's called really good greetings and has 19 different greetings good for lots of different occasions.  These cards were very quick and I really like how they turned out.

Lovely Lacey butterfly card

This card uses a direct to paper technique using an ink pad to highlight the beautiful embossing folder called Lovely Lace.  I used island indigo ink on island indigo cardstock.  The flowers are from  Beautiful Bunch, Flower Shop Pictogram Punches and and Petite Petals stamp sets.  Each of these sets have a coordinating punch to go along with them.  The butterflies are from the set Papillion Potpourri.  Two of the butterflies are sponged while the small butterfly in the middle was colored with Blendabilities.  I stamped them in Momentous tuxedo black ink.  The flowers are stamped in strawberry slush ink on pink pirouette cardstock.  Thanks for looking and I hope this inspires you to make something today.

Petite Petals awesomeness card.

This card uses the starburst technique (I used retired DSP but you could use the Moonlight or All Abloom DSP paper stacks) and the new photopolymer stamp set Flower Patch for the sentiment along with Petite Petals and Pictogram Punches for the flowers.  The flowers are cut out using the Petite petals punch and the flower from the Itty Bitty Accents punch pack.  I used the Stampin' Blendabilities markers to color the rhinestones in the center of the flowers.  Cardstock used is very vanilla and wisteria wonder.  Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to look.

Moonlight flower purse

This is a little hostess gift I created. I got the inspiration from a fellow demonstrator  Elaine from Papercraft Button.  It turned out so cute.   I used the moonlight DSP paper stack along with perfect plum, blackberry bliss and hello honey card stock and ink.  Stamps used were from the mixed bunch, flower shop and petite petals along with their coordinating punches.  The slit for the closure is made with the word window punch.  My hostess loved it!

Papillion Potpourri treat box

Thanks to inspiration from Sam Donald, here are two little treat boxes I made using the Stampin' Up! envelope punch board and a 6x6" piece of designer series paper, stamps and punches.  I think they turned out very pretty.  This would make a nice little co-worker gift, Mother's Day gift or a little thank you.  You can find a video on how to make the basic treat box here bag in a box tutorial by Sam Donald.  She does lots of amazing projects.

These treat boxes use all Stampin' Up! products.
