2 for Tuesday: Star Bright

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Today's  2 for Tuesday featured stamp set is "Star Bright".   It coordinates with the "Star-Dom" die set.  

1 stamp set, 2 totally different cards!

The first card today is a fast, clean and simple card that is perfect to give a word of encouragement in. The A2 base is Pineapple Smoothie CS, layered with a Rich Coral  CS 4 x 5-1/4 panel.  Next is the Whip Cream CS layer cut to 3-3/4 x 5.  I stamped the 2 smallest stars using Pineapple Smoothie, Orange Creamcicle and Rich Coral ink pads.  The sentiment is stamped with Black Licorice. To make the card pop, I covered all of the stars in Journey Glaze and a sprinkle of Sparkle Dust.

My second card for today is all about patterns and layers.  I started with an A2 base of Oatmeal Cookie CS layered with a Pool Play CS panel.  Next I added another layer of patterned cardstock from the "Vintage Paris" paper pack.  I then added 3 banners, the bottom one is silver polka dot vellum from the "Vellum Designer Prints" pack.  I followed that with banners made of  Pool Play and a blue polka dot from the "Winter Fresh Prints" pack.  

I stamped the large striped star with "Journey Silver" ink onto a Oatmeal Cookie CS scrap and cut it out.  I also used the striped star to stamp a piece of Pool Play CS to layer the sentiment on.

The sentiment is stamped on Buttercream CS and embossed with "Journey Silver Embossing Powder".  I used "Tinsel Trim" to make loops beneath my star, layered a Free Bloom Benefit (got to love it when you get paid to shop!)  "Shooting Star Element" and a Pearl to complete the card.

Two for Tuesday: Favorite Peeps

Hi Everybody!  Today I am sharing 2 different cards I created using the Favorite Peeps set.  These cards couldn't be more different!!!

The first card is a whimsical step card.

Isn't it just stinking cute?  I used most of the eggs in the Favorite Peeps stamp set along with the matching dies in the Favorite Peeps die set.  I also used my brand new Border Details Die set to create the grass and the vines. I can already tell that I am going to get my money's worth out of this border set! 

The second card is a vintage/ shabby chic card.

 

Say what?!!! Yes, this is created using the the same Favorite Peeps set!  I choose to use only the eggs from the Favorite Peeps set for this card.  I stamped them using Cool Pool and Oatmeal Cookie. Totally different look by changing the colors and accessories!

I also used the Border Details die set on this card also.  I pulled out my Doily die - if you don't have this die yet, you "NEED" it!!!  I cut the Oatmeal Cookie doily in half to add some texture in the bottom of my card.  The flowers are made from the Spring Bloom Minis die.  Love how you can make them curl using our Bloom tool.  The patterned paper in the background is from the Vintage Paris paper pack.

Thanks for stopping by!

In today's post I am sharing a vintage style card.  I have always loved to add distressing to cards, so when I saw the new Love Buds embellishments, I know exactly what I wanted to create with them!

I just love the Vintage Paris paper pack, so I don't know why I haven't used it more...and is pares so well with the Doily die!  Check out the Rhinestone button, be still my heart!!!  And the crochet flower.... what's not to love?!!!!

I think I might save this card for my 20th wedding aniversary this summer!!!

Hope everyone has a Amazing weekend and is blessed with love and joy!
