Happy Birthday Ms. Stephanie!

Hello my crafty friends!

Ever since I watched Karen's video on the Cascading Tag Card, I could not wait to try it. So when the time came to make a card for my bestie's birthday, I knew this would be the perfect technique.

Here is the front of the card. I measures 3" X 8.5" and fits in a standard letter envelope. The end was cut using the Tags & More 1 by Elizabeth Craft Designs.

Here is the card opened up.

The card is so long, I needed to take photos in sections the capture it all. Here is the left side of the card. The background paper totally reminds me of a 50's wallpaper.

Here is the left side of the card. The jukebox is a die from Sizzix. The "Happy Birthday" is a sentiment from Elizabeth Craft Designs as well. The guitar is an embellishment from the ephemera pack that coordinates with the paper pack I used from DCWV. 

 Here is the video by Karen on the Cascading Tag card.

Summer Lovin'

Hello everyone!

It is time for another Designer's Challenge for Karen Burniston's Pop It Ups. The theme for June is Summer Lovin'! Make a project to celebrate Summer - this could be nature, or beach or 4th of July or anything that means "summer" to you. For this months challenge, I decided to make a Beach Adirondack Chair Pop Up card.

For the front of the card I used the Beach Edges from the Pop It Up collection along with the Dotted Scallop Squares and the Fitted Squares from Elizabeth Craft Designs. The words were created using the "It's a Boy/Girl die", Alphabeth 1, and Alphabet 2 dies.

For the inside of the card, I used the Adirondack Chair Pop IP die along with the Beach Edges, Outdoor Edges, Baby  Charms and the Rainy Day die sets. I have added the sun from the Oval Pull card die along with the pail from the Palm Tree and Pail die set.  The birds were stenciled with the Stage It Stenciles.

Here is a side view of the inside of the card.  You can see the sand piles made with the snow bank die out of the Garden Bench Pop Up die.
