Seeing Stars Card

Catch the flavour of summer with this card to send to a friend!

Misc. August 09 023

Roller wheels were used in two ways here – to add a flowery border on the card and envelope – and then again, to roll out star shapes which were trimmed and become the focal point.

Choose your greeting, add more colour with markers – another quick and simple card!

Love Bug – Simple Card

Misc. August 09 003

Here is the same stamp set as I used for the bookmark previous post – only this time its the cute buggy bug!

This stamp set is very adorable – and you can earn it free – read my posts just below to see how .

Anyways – the idea for “simple cards” is to create a card very simple and then you can take it from there.

I could have left this card at the stage where I just rounded 2 corners. But I thought it would be fun to add some pleating, a small ribbon accent and stamp the greeting in a colour to ‘tie in with the ribbon’ !

Hah! did you catch the pun – lol – I know, corny!

Cheers! :)

Simple Birthday Card


Here's a simple birthday card.
Its also a very luscious colour combination - turquoise and orange! The turquoise is one of the new IN COLORS called Bermuda Bay - mmmmm sounds tranquil doesn't it? Anyways its veeeeery pretty on its own - but with the orange - sooooo summer! And a young lovely thing of 6 years old will identify with colours such as these - they've probably got a t-shirt with these colours, lol!


Making cards can be very fast, economical and easy when you use simple methods and card/scrapbook accents from Stampin' Up!'s kits such as I did here with the number 6 sticker and the accent striped paper borders. A quick punch with the Scallop Circle Punch, a snip of ribbon and a dimensional dot - and voila - you're done! So easy-smeasy :)
