The second card is CASED from the January 2010 Stampin' Success magazine, a special magazine from Stampin' Up just for their demonstrators! It's full of great creative inspiration. This card uses the Butterfly punch and the Scallop Edge punch. One butterly is punched from cardstock. Another butterfly has been embossed using the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder and the Sizzix Big Shot. I embossed and then punched, but it might have been easier to punch and then emboss. This definitely will take a toll on your punch after a while :-) The two layers are tied together using Linen Thread and mounted on the card using dimensionals. The greeting used here is from the Bitty Birthday stamp set that I received FREE as a Sale-A-Bration product with my $50 purchase!
The third card is CASED from Jen Sannes' blog, Simple & Sincere. I changed it slightly. I used a Tempting Turquoise button with a sliver of Certainly Celery threaded through. The birthday wishes greeting is from the WOW Flowers stamp set, another set you could get FREE with a $50 purchase OR by hosting a $300 home workshop between now and March 31st!
Card 4 is CASED from Mary Fish's blog, Stampin' Pretty from her Masculine Cards section. I used the birthday wishes greeting from WOW Flowers again. The circles are from the Circle Circus stamp set, stamped in Black Stazon ink and punched with the 1" and 1-1/4" circle punches.
And the last, but not least card, is a little Valentine's Day note. This is CASED from the Online Extras section of the January 2010 Stampin' Success. In addition to all of the great ideas from the hard copy magazine that we demonstrators receive, Stampin' Up offers additional samples with recipes on the Stampin' Up demonstrator website. It's one of the MANY ways Stampin' Up supports its demonstrators. But I digress.....the card details....this 3.5"X5" card is made with Pretty in Pink cardstock and uses three brand new products available in the Occasions Mini Catalog: Small Heart Punch, Dot Dot Dot a la carte stamp, and the Pinking Hearts Border punch. Both of these new punches are in the NEW punch style which is very modern looking and locks flat for easier storage! The greeting on this card is from Teeny Tiny Wishes (one of my favorite stamp sets!)
