Two More Cards...very different!

Last post for today. But I just had to share these two, very different cards as well. Of course, I didn't come up with them myself!



The inspiration for this card came from this one I saw posted on i{heart}2stamp. You'll have to scroll down a bit to see it. But isn't it adorable?! I used the Doodlebug paper I have in my stash and a bit of Watermelon and Citrus Leaf cardstock from CTMH. I punched the little flowers and added some bling. I finagled the pinwheel by gluing the 2 1/2 inch square patterned paper to the cardstock then cut in from each corner. Make a wish sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Mixed Messages set. I had a lot of fun with this one!

I really like the cards that Beate Johns posts on her fresh & fun blog. I also like that she gives dimensions, making it that much easier to stamplift! LOL

I saw this card and wanted to play with the design and here is the result. I used some Making Memories paper I had, but I realized I didn't have a solid to go with it, so I made do with textured cardstock from DCWV's Christmas Stack. I used Ocean ink (CTMH) to stamp the frames (from Papertrey Ink's Borders and Corners set) and the butterfly (Patterned Bugs, Inkadinkado). The ribbon is from Hobby Lobby, Just because (PTI-Mixed Messages), small flower punch and stamped image from a stamp in Groovy (CTMH). I added some Crystal Stickles on the butterfly and a brad on the flower, I used pop dots to add dimension. Oh and I cut the square with my Cricut and Mini Monograms cartridge. The small oval was cut using my Coluzzle oval. I also used my concave punch from EK Success. You can get LOTS of inspiration from Beate's blog!

Okay, that's it. I may have forgotten something, but I hope you'll forgive me, I'm tired and ready to head to bed. My computer locked up in the middle of typing this and I had to reboot. Arghhhh. I hope you enjoyed your visits today! :o)
