Baseball Birthday

 

Crafty Secrets Clear Art Stamps baseball set, cardstock

from my stash, and brads from Gina K Designs.

 

I have 2 nephews who have birthdays coming up in October.

They both love to play baseball and have been on teams

over the summer. I thought these would make good cards

for them, and it was so simple to make.

I hope they enjoy it as much as I did making it!



Masculine Birthday

All products are from Gina K -Birthday Greetings stamp set,

Grateful heart stamp set, and Casual Friday paper pack.

I used the Epiphany Crafts custom button tool and tied it with twine.
Self stick ribbon I had on hand, Versamark and gold embossing powder.

I have 2 brother-in-laws with birthdays in October and thought this
would make a good masculine card. I had a lot of fun
using the different products, tools, and techniques to make this card.
Quick and easy!

Unforgettable Birthday

Glossy cardstock, colored cardstock/ribbon/Unforgettable stamp set

from Gina K Designs, butterflies from a Thank You stamp set from TAC,

Versamark, and Kaleidoscope and Memento inks.

 

I love the look of the Kaleidoscope and black inks on glossy

cardstock. I have a lot of Autumn birthdays coming up

and thought this would make a good

birthday card. 

You Make My Heart Bloom

 

Amuse Cardstock and inks, Hero Arts Fancy Lace Die,

Gina K's You Make My Heart Bloom stamp, colored pencils,

blending pen, Paper Wishes Lace and Doilies Dazzles,

ribbon and pearls from my stash, and glitter pen.

 

I had so much fun making this card and trying new and old

techniques! I started by placing Dazzles strips vertically and sponge

inking them w/Amuse inks. I then removed the Dazzles and cut the sponged

cardstock in strips of 3 colors each. I then placed it on pink cardstock

and bordered it with Paper Wishes Dazzles.

I die cut the Fancy Lace die and glued it to white cardstock. I used colored

pencils and blending pens to color it in.

The rest is pretty self explanatory, but what fun to make.



Amuse cardstock, Doodle Pantry designs and paper,

Spellbinders dies, Lucky 8 Punch, Gelly Roll

glitter pen, and pearls and ribbon from my stash.

 

I couldn't wait for one of my best friends to become a Grandma

so that I could send her this card! I just love this digital

design by Doodle Pantry and thought it made a beautiful baby

girl card. I am so happy for her being a Grandma and hope

she loved this card.



Harvest of Wishes



Most of the products used on this card are from Gina K Designs

Stamp TV Kit -Grateful Heart. I used Harvest of Wishes, and

Autumn Blessings stamps sets from the kit, Copic markers

to color the images, and Spellbinders

dies for the greeting.

 

I cannot believe that summer is basically over!! I am now thinking

about making fall and holiday cards. As you can tell I love the

Grateful Heart Stamp TV set by Gina K. I am thinking

that I may use this as my Thanksgiving card.

Only God

All supplies used for this card were from Gina K Designs,

A Grateful Heart Stamp TV Kit,  other than the

pearls which I had on hand already.

 

I have loved this stamp ever since I saw cards made with

it by 2 of my best friends.Thanks for the inspiration

Donna and Shirley!! I wasn't sure how I was going

to use it and was waiting for inspiration.

I am pleased with the final outcome.

Hope you like it.

Gather Strength

 

Bazzill cardstock from my stash, Bazzill flowers,

Doodle Pantry Pitcher and Basin digital images and papers,

Spellbinders dies, brads and ribbon from my stash.

 

My daughter was recently going through a tough time

in her schooling and relationship and I wanted to send her

a card. I loved this sentiment and the fragileness of the

pitcher and basin. I felt it was perfect for lifting

her spirits.
