Blackberry Wild Flowers

Blackberry Bliss and Wild About Flowers.
That's today's combo.
I used the Wild About Flowers stamp set and the Fresh Market DSP
Blackberry Wild FlowerThe designer paper I used is from the Fresh Market DSP.
I'm not much into the fruit side of the paper but the opposite side
has great options — two gingham patterns and a few other fun prints.
My card base is of course Blackberry Bliss.  I added a layer of
Very Vanilla and then the Blackberry Bliss Gingham DSP.
I added a 3" x 3" square of Blackberry Bliss to the card front
with dimensionals.  On a 1" x 2 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla I stamped
"you made my day" from A Dozen Thoughts stamp set.
I tucked this piece under the Blackberry Bliss square.
On another piece of Very Vanilla I stamped the leaves of the flowers
with Pear Pizzazz and the flowers with Blackberry Bliss.
Then I punched it out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch.

This is another Fast & Fabulous card.

Doughnuts for your Birthday!!!

Another new stamp set — Sprinkles on Top.
Do you like sprinkles on top of your doughnuts?
My daughter does a fun thing for her boys birthdays.
The morning of their birthday, she greets them in bed with a
doughnut cake — candle and all and she sings Happy Birthday as
she carries it into their bedroom.
What is a doughnut cake — she piles mini doughnuts into a pyramid
to create a cake.  The boys LOVE this new tradition.
This card reminded me of this event (and we had a birthday on Thursday so the
timing was perfect).
Donut BirtdayThe base of the card is Bermuda Bay with layers of Basic Black
and Watermelon Wonder.  On the Whisper White layer I stamped
Happy Birthday with Stazon ink and then in the lower right corner
I stamped "hope it's sweet".  Next I added the two strips of
Everyday Chic Washi Tape. 
I cut my doughnut stamp apart into 4 separate doughnuts (that way I could
make each one a different color — no two doughnuts alike you know).
After I stamped the doughnuts with Watermelon Wonder, Crushed Curry,
Cucumber Crush and Bermuda Bay I punched them out with the 3/4" circle punch.
They are adhered to the card front with dimensionals of course.

Toadally Awesome

You are Toadally Awesome!!!
This is one of the cards we did at my Fast & Fabulous Class this month.
The stamp set is You're Sublime — what a fun set.
There are five different images to cover all kinds of occasions.
This card could be for a birthday or how about great job at school, etc.
Toadally AwesomeThe card base is Old Olive and I did a Z-fold this time.
The card base is 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4".
I put a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Whisper White on the inside for your message.
I added a 1 7/8" x 4" piece of Mossy Meadow to the front flap and then
a 1 5/8" x 3 3/4" strip of the English Garden DSP on top of the Mossy Meadow.
I stamped the toad image with Stazon ink and used an Aqua Painter
and Old Olive and Mossy Meadow ink pads to color the toad.
The stamped image is adhered to Old Olive and then to Mossy Meadow.
These layers are attached to the card front with dimensionals.
Make sure you keep the dimensionals on the left side of the panel
(you don't want to seal your card shut).
