Things I forgot to share 3...

INGREDIENTS:

Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Early Esspresso
Big Shot: Many Thanks Embosslit Die

Things I forgot to share...

I found a few cards I forgot to share here while cleaning up my computer so I thought I'd share them over the next couple of days.

I really like the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit die for the Big Shot.  I really like the tiny little hearts they are just so cute and I love that the Full Heart punch fits so beautifully inside it giving a lovely little scalloped edge like I did on the last card I posted here.

INGREDIENTS:

Cardstock:  Whisper White, Basic Black, Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Baja Breeze.
Big Shot:  Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit Die, Vintage Wallpaper Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
Accessories: 5/8" Basic Black Satin Ribbon

Hostess Happy Birthday

I made this card a while ago and loved it.  I needed a birthday card recently and decided to add an inner as that seems to be the trend for me right now :)  I love this stamp set, I love anything free and I love anything that goes with a punch cause it saves me heaps of time cutting out, lol.

Thanks So Much

 Love being able to cut fabric with my big shot :)
I often find myself wanting to say thank you, but never seem to send thank you cards.  I think I want them to be so extra special that I just never get around to doing it, which is really sad cause the people I love so much and want to say thanks to get nothing :(  Anyway I did make this one (it was a little while ago) and did give it even though it could never be special enough to convey my heartfelt thanks for someone who gives so much to me.
 So I added sparkle to add to the specialness, lol
And I've been experimenting with insides.

Bliss

I am loving this stamp set (can I say that if this is the first time I've used it???) made even lovelier because it was FREE!!

Bliss is a great name for this set.  One of the meanings of the word bliss according to thefreedictionary.com means extreme happiness and this is exactly how I felt once I finished this little set of cards.  I made the cards during Craft Connect, a craft group that meets at my place each fortnight and finished the box last night.  Can you see the shimmer mist??  I made it up from the champagne shimmer paint and rubbing alcohol (email me if you want to know how).  I love the fine sparkle it makes.







Would you like to make this card?  Why not book a workshop?  It's a great time for a workshop as everyone who spends over $100 gets a free stamp set check out the details here.
