    Birthday cupcake and Birthday sign

    I have had two birthday’s recently and didn’t want to post the cards until they received them so here they are.

    They are both using the same die on the inside but the look is so different.  My sister gets the pink cupcake and my son received the balloon sign.  Both of these cards are from using the new Stampin Up die which I fell in love with as soon as I saw it. It makes the card into a WOW card when the recipient opens it.

    I colored in the candles and letters on the inside of both cards and used an embossing folder on the teal card.

    My Valentine and Dog on Couch

    I made this card for my husband this year for Valentine’s Day.  I know he will love it.  I used the heart die from Stampin Up in both red and white cardstock and turned the red one around and attached it to the white heart.  By doing this you can see both of the colors in the heart.  I then used the Swiss dots embossing folder for the background and stamped My Valentine on the inside with red ink.

    This next card I created for the group of card makers I am with. We had to create a funny card this month and I knew most of the ladies would use the old lady stamp sets that are out so I went in another direction.

    My dog and cat have free rein in our house, I guess we just love animals to much.  Well my card was inspired by our dog. You see she thinks she is a human and loves to sleep on the couch.  I have the dog popped up on foam dots and colored with copic markers.
