Awash with Flowers

I didn't get to make it to my good friend's wedding.  I saw some pictures on facebook and saw that her colors were yellow - so I decided to make a yellow card.  I'm really happy with how it turned out.  I love that our punches have so much versatility - like just using one side of the Modern Label Punch - so cute!

Accessories

We have been having fun making lots of fun accessories for Brenalee's hair and clothes.  Today we made lots of flowers.  So easy!

Using the Fun Flowers Bigz Die, we cut out some nylon fabric.  Held it together with a clear rhinestone brad, heated the fabric until it started melting and ta-dah!  A beautiful flower!

Accessories: Big Shot, Fun Flowers Bigz Die, Clear Rhinestone Brads, Heat Tool

Back to School Banner

I saw on some blog a cute back to school count down and thought it would be fun for us to do.  I used just whatever scraps I had lying around - so some of it is retired Stampin' Up! products. 

 All the letters have quotes inside of them.  Every morning starting tomorrow we will read one of the quotes.  There are 12 letters and tomorrow is only 12 days until school starts.  I can't believe how fast this summer went.

I'm not sure I'm ready for summer to be over.

Easy Events

This was a very quick and easy thank you card.  It features a "z-fold" which is a fun fold that is still a normal A2 greeting sized card.  Start with a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of cardstock.  Score it at 5 1/2" and 2 3/4" - that's it!  You can see that it makes a Z here:

Courage

I got a package from UPS with FREE stamp sets!  I love being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!  I have been wanting this Courage set for a while now and am glad I finally have it.  I made the top card first - but it wasn't quite what I was imagining in my head.  So I started again and came up with the second card.  I like the second one better - what do you think?
