Challenge #51 Anything Goes

Stenciled Rose Card

Created two cards using Stenciled Rose Card, one for a birthday card and the 2nd card as a anniversary card (which came along at a good time - son and daughter-in-law celebrating 15 years of marriage.)

The first card the stencil was cut out using poster board and layered onto a fancy scalloped-edge mat from SilhouettteAmerica Online Store and sponged with a retired ink pads from Close to My Heart - 

1. Cranberry
2. Blush

and from Stampin! UP

1. Wild Wasabi Ink Pad
2. Ribbon - from my Stampin! Up stash of ribbons

Pink gemstones from my personal stash.

I hand punched the tag and placed over some ink stains when I was sponging the edges with Cranberry from Close to My Heart.

2nd card:

I cut the Stenciled Rose and placed a red circle under the cut out rose.  Laid the leaves on top of the mat; and stamped the sentiment in the corner, placed a pink gemstone in one corner of the mat.  Now to locate a inside sentiment for anniversary and  it'll be ready to mail out.

Thank you for stopping by to visit with me and happy crafting to all.

Celebrating the 4th Challenge

 

For this Fourth of July Challenge project I used the file,
Patriotic Set by Creative Pointe, which can be purchased here....Patriotic Set  and with this set, I decided to create a pop up card.  Remembering what I had watched on a Sandi Genovese's video I decided to apply this to this card.

First, I basket weaved red and white strips and the way it came out was like the stripes on the Flag.  I glued the weaved square to a blue card stock to give it the 4th of July colors.  Placed Celebrating the 4th on the front of the weaved section along with more stars and a firecracker.

 

Inside of the card... I cut out the two sets of stars that came with the set and attached one star to the pop out tab, and the other set to each side along with extra yellow stars.  Layered blue, red and white cards and placed on the bottom of inside for a message or signing.  Placed another firecracker on one edge and a yellow star on opposite.

Happy Summer every one...and see you next September.
