Here is yet another card I've created that I'm not completely thrilled with. Boy, am I ever rusty from very little stamping the past year! Ugh! I'm determined to keep plugging along until I have my old mojo back!This card uses Jen del Muro's Sketch For You To Try July 2011 and Colour Q Challenge #91 of Tangerine Tango, Wild Wasabi, Tempting Turquoise, Basic Black and Whisper White. The balloon images are from the stamp set, Crazy for Cupcakes, and are paper pieced twice with the top layer raised up on Stampin' Dimensionals.
The retired Wild Wasabi double stitched grosgrain ribbon is one of the best ribb
ons (in my opinion) that Stampin' Up! has every carried ... love the width, texture, color ... everything about it! It's so easy to work with!RECIPE

I've been anxious to try the inlaid embossing technique. The stars were punched out and adhered to the Whisper White CS, and the sentiment was stamped in Night of Navy ink .... then run through the Big Shot in the Square Lattice Embossing Folder. The small Night of Navy star inside the large Basic Gray star was embellished with a silver brad, then raised on dimensionals after the embossing. I used the Colour Q Challenge #91 of Bravo Burgundy, Ruby Red, Night of Navy, Basic Gray and Whisper White. A great easy masculine July birthday card!RECIPE

I found this card by Mary Fish so striking, I just had do duplicate it! I love her color combination of Poppy Parade, Old Olive and Basic Black! To create the flower, I used the new stamp set, Build A Blossom, and coordinating punch, Blossom Petals Builder. Both were originally introduced in the 2011 Spring Mini Catalog, and can now be found in the NEW 2011-2012 Idea Book & Catalog.RECIPE
