Challenge

I made this card for a challenge on my Yahoo Group Card Camp. The challenge was to mke a card using something that you have had for at least a year and never used. This pansy stamp is part of a set that I have had for probably 2 years and never used. I also used a border die from a Spellbinder set. I have used the other dies in the set but not this one.

Golden Butterfly

I have a stash of special papers that I have had for quite a few years. I don't know what I have been saving it for but it is paper that has always been too special to use! LOL Anyway after looking at it I decided to use a little of this beautiful gold paper that is all crinkled and soft.

I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder Textile Textures for the bottom panel and then a Spellbinders Label 14. I used a Nellie Snellen MFD 031 die on the label and then cut a smaller label and embossed it with the same embossing folder. The tag is Spellbinders Parisian Accents the butterfly a Martha Stewart punch and the flourishes are from a Marianne Designs Creatables LRO 116 die set. I was surprised that the beautiful gold paper showed up so well in the picture but it is even prettier in real life.

Birthday Wishes

This card has been mailed to someone whose birthday is today so hopefully she has gotten it.

I was inspired by a card kit to make this stand up card. I used Spellbinders Labels 20 dies and Parisian Accents also from Spellbinders. The 3d flower is from a sheet in my stash.

Thank you pendant

Here is the second card using Pendant and Label dies from Spellbinders.

I used two sizes of Labels 18 to cut and emboss the frame. The image was stamped and I used a Fleur De Lis Accent die to cut and emboss around the image. I cut another FDL accent and cut it in half. These halves were then adhered to each side of the frame leaving a gap in the middle. The second pendant was attached with dimensional tape to hide the gap and then the whole pieces was attached to the card with dimensional tape. I stamped and colored another image and cut out the flower and attached it with tape also.
