Succulent Spring Birthday


I was honoured to be asked to join the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop with many talented stampers from all over the world! This month's theme is Birthdays. I hope you enjoy hopping around from blog to blog!




I love the Painted Seasons stamp set that you can get as a Sale-A-Bration item until March 31st! With a $120 CAD order, you can get this stamp set and coordinating Designer Series Paper FREE! 

For a FREE PDF of the instructions, click on Print Recipe below (above the Product List).

On a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 3-3/4" x 5", randomly stamp the succulent plant/flower in both Blackberry Bliss and Mossy Meadow inks.
Cut a 5" piece of the Silver Metallic-Edge 3/8" ribbon and colour it with a Mossy Meadow light Blends pen. Wrap it around the stamped cardstock piece about 1-1/2" from the top and adhere at the back. Adhere the cardstock to a 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock.



Stamp the sentiment from Birthday Cheer in Versamark ink, cover with White Emboss powder and heat using the Heat Tool. Die cut using the Wonderful Floral Framelits oval or substitute another oval if you like (Wonderful Floral Framelits are no longer available to purchase). Mount the oval over the ribbon using Stampin' Dimensionals. Adhere the piece to a Blackberry Bliss card base measuring 5-1/2" x 11", scored at 4-1/4".

All Geared Up


Once again, I am thrilled to participate in this worldwide blog hop!



This is a great masculine card (or for anyone who likes to tinker with machines)!


·         Die cut the large grouping of gears and the small grouping of gears from the Garage Gears Thinlits using Silver Foil Sheets. Using the oil stain stamp from Geared Up Garage, stamp Versamark on some areas of the gears. Cover with Black Emboss Powder and melt using the Heat Tool. Repeat the stamping with Versamark and Copper Emboss Powder. Leave some of the Silver Foil showing through.
·         Cut a gray piece 4" x 2" from the Classic Garage Designer Series Paper. Cut a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock and emboss it with the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder in the Big Shot. Adhere the gray piece about an inch up from the bottom of the Crumb Cake piece.
·         Wrap a 5" piece of Black/Silver Striped Metallic Ribbon around the center of the gray piece on the Crumb Cake piece and adhere on the back. Adhere the Crumb Cake piece to a Basic Black card base, 8-1/2" x 5-1/2", scored at 4-1/4". Glue the gear diecuts to the card as shown. Stamp the sentiment in Versamark on a small piece of Basic Black Cardstock and heat emboss with White Emboss Powder. Cut a banner on one end and mount to card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
