Little Monkey Bananas About You Card

This card is such a happy card. It features the Little Monkey bundle. This little bundle is great for kids or adults. There are lots of details with the leaves but if that's not your thing, keep it simple.

The Gorgeous Gingham Designer Series Paper adds color around the edges. "I'm banana about you" is heat embossed on a cloud that is punched out with the Cloud punch. The monkeys are stamped and punched in Crumb Cake cardstock. One monkey is colored with the dark Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends. Doesn't it change the look? The supplies I used are listed below.

Cutting Instructions:

Card Base is cut 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4"

Gingham Layer is cut 4 x 5 1/4"

Basic White layer is cut 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Here is my video showing how to make this card:

Bubble Bath Circle Sayings Birthday Card

Today's card is so pretty. It might be a little feminine since I used Bubble Bath for the card base. The panel is Basic White. Bright & Beautiful designer series paper is so perfect for birthday cards. I layered the circle piece on a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock. It just pops, doesn't it?

To make the circle, stamp with the Celebrate circle sentiment in Pretty Peacock and punch it out with the 2 3/8" punch. I stamped the cupcake on a scrap and colored it with coordinating Stampin' Blends and cut it out with scissors (fussy cutting). You can't see if very well but I used Wink of Stella on the frosting! The striped banner is flagged by hand but you can use Banners Pick a Punch. The card is embellished with the Pastel Adhesive-backed Sequins.

Here's a close up of the cupcake-can you see the Wink of Stella?

Regal Reindeer and One Horse Open Sleigh DSP

Thanks for stopping by. I've been busy getting samples ready for the next couple of events. My next card class is next Thursday, July 20. Sign up today for 1:00 class or 6:30 class. We will make 5 cards including your first Christmas card of the season.

Today's card uses the Regal Reindeer stamp set and Reindeer Dies. But no reindeer! Don't you think that little fox is the cutest? The large group of trees is stamped in Early Espresso and die cut with one of the dies out of the Reindeer Dies. The single trees are die cut in Crumb Cake and Pretty Peacock Shimmer Paper. It's hard to tell from the picture how pretty the shimmer is on that tree. I did a video showing how to make this card. You'll have to advance toward the end of the video to see this card.

This list of supplies is for all three cards in my Card Class To Go, you won't need everything to make this card but you can figure out what you need based on the pictures. If not, let me know and I am happy to help you.
