Extraordinary Floral Birthday

This card was made using the beautiful Irresistible Designs Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) along with the Foiled Frames and Labels Ephemera Pack. 

The Irresistible Designs Specialty DSP has UV-coated patterns that resist ink, making it perfect for emboss-resist techniques.  You just apply ink and the pattern pops out.  It's the easiest way to get a heat-embossed look--no embossing powder or heat tool needed.

For this card, I removed the Foil Frame from the Foil Frames and Labels sheet. Using the foiled arch frame negative that was leftover, I lightly taped this to the Irresistible Designs Specialty DSP. Once taped on, using a Blending Brush I added Azure Afternoon ink to the inside of the frame. After the inside of the frame was colored, the foiled arch frame negative was removed and the Gold Foiled Arch Frame was adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This panel was adhered onto an Azure Afternoon panel and then onto the Basic White cardstock card base.

The flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape that has been backed with Basic White cardstock and then cut out using the coordinating Extraordinary Flora die.

The butterflies are from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and have been stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock. Once stamped they were colored using Dark Fresh Freesia and Light Strawberry Slush Stampin' Blends. The butterflies were cut out using the coordinating Beautiful Butterflies dies.

The sentiment is from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set and has been stamped onto Basic White cardstock using Azure Afternoon ink. Once stamped it was cut out using one of the Beautiful Butterflies dies.

Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels were added to the card front for accent.
An Azure Afternoon cardstock panel was adhered to the inside of the card, followed by a Basic White cardstock panel.

The sentiment is from the retired Sunny Sentiments stamp set and has been stamped in Azure Afternoon ink.

The butterfly, in the lower right corner, is from the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set, has been stamped in Azure Afternoon ink.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today!

Extraordinary Flora Birthday

This card is ohhh sooo pretty!

The card starts with a Summer Splash cardstock card base.

The next Summer Splash cardstock panel has been embossed using the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder.

The Summer Splash arched panel was made using the fourth from the smallest Everyday Arches die.  This panel was adhered onto the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The Basic White cardstock top panel was cut out using the largest Textured Notes dies.  Once cut out, the center arch was cut out using the fifth smallest Everyday Arches die. This panel was adhered onto the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Next, using one of the larger Thoughtful Wishes dies and Basic White cardstock the flower base was cut out and adhered to the inside of the arch using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The fifth smallest and seventh smallest Everyday Arches dies were used to cut out the final arch.  This arch was adhered to the card front using Mutlipurpose Liquid Glue.

The flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and were adhered onto Basic White cardstock.  I used the side of my Bone Folder to rub over the Washi Tape to make sure it was adhered onto the cardstock completely. The Basic White cardstock backed flowers were then cut out using the coordinating Extraordinary Flora die. The flowers were adhered onto the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and strategically placed Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Saying Something Ephemera Pack and has been adhered to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Iridescent Faceted Gems were used to finish the look of the card.
Here's a look at the inside of the card.

A Summer Splash cardstock panel was adhered to the card base, followed by a Basic White panel.

The sentiment is from the retired Sunny Sentiments stamp set and has been stamped in Summer Splash ink.

The flower is from the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and has been applied directly onto the cardstock.

The envelope also has an Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape flower adhered directly onto the envelope.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today!

Turtle-y Awesome Fault Line Birthday

This fun Fault Line card was made using the new Turtle-y Cute Suite.

This card starts with a Granny Apple Green cardstock card base that was cut 4 1/4" x 9 1/2" and scored at 5 1/2".

The front of the card, which should be 1" shorter than the back, was embossed using the Turtle Textures Embossing Folder.  Garden Green ink was applied to the embossing folder before the front of the card was run through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine.

Once embossed, the Darling Duckling musical note sheet of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Turtle-y Cute DSP was placed on top of the card front and the two layers were torn together, horizontally across the card creating the "fault line". The torn edge of the Granny Apple Green card front was slightly inked using Granny Apple Green ink.

The two torn pieces of Darling Duckling musical note DSP were adhered to the edges of the fault line.  The exposed edges of the Darling Duckling DSP and the Granny Apple Green card front were slightly curled up.

The turtle party panel, from the Turtle-y Cute DSP, was adhered to the back of the card front making sure the panel was making the card front long enough to make the card front match the back of the card at 5 1/2".

The "Happy Birthday" sentiment is from the Saying Something Mix and Match Ephemera Pack.

The party turtle with the balloon was fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute DSP and adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Shades of Green Hexagons were scattered around the card front.
The inside of the card has Garden Green cardstock panel adhered to the card base, followed by a Basic White cardstock panel.

The sentiment is from the Turtle-y Awesome stamp set and has been stamped in Garden Green ink.

The birthday turtle in the lower right hand corner of the card was fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute DSP.

I hope you enjoyed my cards for today!
