Wish Upgrade Card

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends

Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but changed up some of the card stock color to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

 

Here's my Spot Light Sunday card from yesterday on the LEFT.....

And my Mix-It-UP! Monday upgraded card for today on the RIGHT.....

 

I can't wait to send this card out to someone special.

 

To start this upgrade off ....... I changed the orientation from a Landscape card to a Portrait style card.  I also changed the base card to Petal Pink.  I did layer a panel of Whisper White and 'Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper' to the front of my card.......

 

And before adhering that panel down........I colored my 'Metallic-Edge Ribbon' with my 'Petal Pink Stampin' Blends' and added it to the top of my DSP panel.

 

I also changed up my sentiment a tad.  I die-cut the 'Broadway Lights' WISH die out with Whisper White card stock ...... and adhered that to a panel of Petal Pink and Whisper White.  After adhering it down.......I hit the letters with the 'Fine Tip Glue Pen' for a PRETTY SHINY message.

 

To finish this card off ...... I added the 'Gold Metallic Pearls around the top DSP panel.

 

So what's your take on these two cards......

Do you have a favorite????  

 

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends

Today is Spotlight Sunday ....... And I have a card I created using product from the 2019-2020 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog and the 2020 Mini Catalog.  This card uses several products from both of those catalogs ........ And I'm thrilled with the way it turned out.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today..........

 

Seems like I am always needing birthday cards........

Here's a QUICK & EASY kind of card to make.

 

 I started with a panel of 'Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper'.

 

Before I adhered it down.......I colored some 'Metallic-Edge Ribbon' with my 'Petal Pink Stampin' Blends' and then wrapped that ribbon around my DSP panel.

 

The WISH die-cut is from the 'Broadway Lights Dies' and I used Petal Pink card stock for that message.  After I adhered my die-cut piece down onto my card ....... I spread a thin layer of 'Fine Tip Glue Pen' over the letters and when it dried......INSTANT WOW FACTOR created.

 

The finishing touch was adding some 'Gold Metallic Pearls' around the front of my card.....

 

 And this card was done in a JIFFY!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share an upgraded version of this very card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Happy Birthday

Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Paper Pumpkin Saturday ........... And I would like to share with you the project I created using the February Lovely Day Paper Pumpkin kit.   Here's that project.......

 

This alternate Paper Pumpkin card came together with the help of some Pretty Peacock Designer Series Paper.

 

I added two panels of the 2029-2021 In Color Designer Series Paper to the top and bottom sections of this card.

 

My sentiment was stamped from the set that came with the February kit.....

 

 And I used Pretty Peacock and Rococo Rose ink to stamp that image.

 

 I also added some of the sequins that came with this kit.....

 

And this card was done in a SUPER JIFFY!!!

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a Spot Light Sunday card with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

Need a special little thank you tag......

Here's the PERFECT little tag for you.

 

I started out with a Poppy Parade base tag and added a panel of 'Bright Poppy Parade Designer Series Paper' down the center.

 

Next, I used the 'Stitched So Sweetly Dies' (A MUST HAVE in the 2020 Mini Catalog) ...... And die-cut a Whisper White label for the front of my tag.

 

My sentiment was stamped from the 'Witty-Cisms' set and colored in with my 'Poppy Parade Stampin' Blends'

 

And I topped my tag off with some 'Poppy Parade 1/2" Textured Weave Ribbon' and added a 'Whisper White Baker's Twine' bow.

 

To finish off my tag ........ I grabbed my White Gel Pen and added some pretty stitching around the sides of my Poppy Parade tag.

Saddle-UP! Card Swap Card

Happy Wednesday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is Wine-Down Wednesday.  My middle of the week card feature for today will hopefully offer you some inspiration and provide you with some motivation to keep you moving through your busy week.  Let's jump right in with my card share for today........

 

Check out this PRETTY card I made for my Saddle-UP! card swap.

 

I started out with a Melon Mambo base card ........ And then I cropped out a Whisper White panel using the 'Sending Flowers Dies'. 

 

I grabbed my Stampin' Blends and selected several SPRING COLORS and got busy coloring in all the die-cut flowers. 

 

And then I matted that Whisper White die-cut panel directly onto my Melon Mambo base card.

 

My sentiment was stamped using the new 'Full of Happiness' set and I stamped that directly in the die-cut circle.

 

To finish off my card ....... I used my the new 'Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon' along with my now retired Melon Mambo Stampin' Blends ........ And colored that ribbon in to coordinate with my card.

 

 The 'Sending Flowers Die' is AMAZING........

And with so many color selections.......

You will have SO MUCH FUN making a bunch of these up.

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow with a Tag Thursday creation to share with you ........ Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!
